Just a heads up for those of you that like to plan ahead. We will be closed for the Labor day weekend, Saturday August 31 through Monday September 2nd. We will open again on Tuesday the 3rd at 10:00 am.

FNL CANCELLATION

We will not be having FNL this week.  It was suggested, and adopted, that we should delay this next FNL in favor of NASCAR being in town.  This means we have a bye week, followed by a holiday vacation week, and will “make up” the bye week with a double schedule on the 12th.  This is the same as if it rained out logic.

Thanks to the group for working this out and see you on the 12th for a REALLY good time.

REGISTRATION HELPER

Once again we are looking for help on racedays in registration.  Our regular person has had some changes to work hours and will be unable to help us in the future.  We are looking for someone who can help us sell wristbands while we are helping people sign up for classes.

Call us to visit about how you could help out on racedays.

RACEDAY RAINOUTS

WOW we have had 3 races in a row rained out.  That is probably some sort of record and I know it is a first for CHMS.  Having it be the first 3 of the season is even more rare.  Let’s hope this week goes better.

We are excited to show you our new corner lights in action.  Not many places in America have something like this.  Also we now have our lights for white and checkered in operation as well.  Come join us to see these in action.

JR HIGH & HIGH SCHOOL ACADEMIES

We would like to congratulate Myles and Gavin for their efforts in our first session in 2019.  Since Myles has graduated 8th grade, he will be moving to High School for the upcoming session.  Come and challenge him.

We already have some signed up for each academy which will be starting later in July.  As a bonus to those who sign up PRIOR to July 4, we will be including a free practice session.  Come and polish your skills in the karts you will be driving.

Unfortunately we have to cancel today’s race due to the rain.

Jr. High Academy Outlook

We have a potential for bad weather for tonight’s final race. We are planning to celebrate with pizza and awards whether the race is run or not. Join us to close out session one with our Jr. High Stars.

THANK YOU SKUSA

This post is long overdue as a thank you to all who made last weekend great.  SKUSA is reviving the regional series and while the numbers were smaller than desired, the quality of both officiating and competition were present.  Weather leading up to the weekend was “challenging” to get the facility ready but the racing days were blessed with no on-track delays and only a brief intense shower during the “social” hour.  If you missed out this year, check them out and consider joining the fun next time.

HIGH SCHOOL ACADEMY

Our first High School Academy starts tonight.  We have had numerous questions but only one commitment.  Plan to be here, signed up, and ready for drivers meeting at 6PM.  Since it seems to rain VERY regularly lately, we will post a weather cancellation at 4PM if that happens.  We have done some testing and are going to ballast to driver weight of 150 for the opening night.

Join us for a reasonably priced ($200 including driver pass in our rental karts) 5 race academy.  Call today to enter to eliminate signup delays.
