He is talking about Twister Alley in Butterfield MO. They race basically every other week from March to October. They run NKA Clones with 300lb, 350lb, and 400lb limits. They run their own Predator rules with the same weight rules. Check their facebook page for the predator rules, sometimes they change a little year to year. They run Rookies, JR1, 2, and 3, Stock Appearing and Open. They occasionally have quarter midgets but these are not every race.Thanks. Do you know what engine classes they have ran on a weekly basis?
Gas only 87 tested against the gas station right up the road. Clone and predator classes are required to be slicks I think, but any brand you want. A lot of guys use maxxis, and Cobras made a strong showing this year. When I was set up for Clone Heavy I was looking at a 12/62-64.Ok thanks for the info. Are the clone classes gas or alky? Also, are you allowed to run any tire you want? What is a good starting point for gearing on a medium clone?
I believe Emma indoor races karts in KC, but dont quote me on that. There is a few events in Lebanon as well, but they are bigger money type stuff.Really appreciate the info guys. Let me know if you hear anything about local indoor events this winter as well.
Website ?Kellyville Oklahoma will be having some indoor races this winter for the first time in years. Its more than an hour but thought i would throw it out
Facebook only i think Facebook GroupsWebsite ?
E3 is ok, just not the same quality run show as Twister. And every time I have been there the track has been so rough it was undriveable.E3 speedway is also another one. It looks like it is about 45 mins from you.
I saw a video of some karts running there not to long ago and it seemed very muddy and and the karts were bouncing all over the place. I have never been there so i ddint really know that because i havnt heard of many people going there.E3 is ok, just not the same quality run show as Twister.

Its incredibly small. More just a circle than anything. They tend to overwater it right before they pack it, so the the mud tires on the truck they roll it with pulls the surface apart and makes it "seal" with big junks everywhere. I dont like knocking a track, but it is the roughest track ive ever seen, and its the entire track. Its not just a hole here or there, its just everywhere. If they wouldnt roll it with too much water and the truck they use it'd probably be better.I saw a video of some karts running there not to long ago and it seemed very muddy and and the karts were bouncing all over the place.

Good to know. I had thoughts of maybe taking my kart up there a few times when twister alley isnt racing but as much money I have put into my kart i think it will just stay in the shop and not go to that track. That is just so hard on your kart. Thanks for the info.Its incredibly small. More just a circle than anything.

They aren't nearly as professional in how they run the show as Twister, but thats a different discussion.
If no one tries to tell them what they are doing wrong they will never know. Everyone has an opinion just give yours tactfully. If its that bad maybe those tall treads hoosier sells will gain you some ground clearance and lower air to cushion the ride?Its incredibly small. More just a circle than anything.

I sent them a tactful message a while back, and basically got told that its the way they like it. It would be crazy fast if it was smooth, its just not. Ive considered going to treads to make it ride easier.If no one tries to tell them what they are doing wrong they will never know. Everyone has an opinion just give yours tactfully.

I have seen videos where the track has big clumps of dirt on it and going to different rtires isnt gonna do anything for how bad of condition the track was in those nights. When comparing twister alley's surface and E3's surface twister alleys looks well taken care of it and looks way faster.If no one tries to tell them what they are doing wrong they will never know.
