as a civil engineer, working on a side gig
i have this rich friend. very rich. he wants me to do some consulting for him. he has plans to build a shifter kart track on his property in salinas. that and re-mod his house on the property. this tricky track will need a TUNNEL! young people with money are fun to hang with.

would he have it opened to the public, or would it be private use only? is he involved with the salinas valley kart club?

toby, no he just wants his private kart track. he would definately open it up, during a BBQ. nice guy. he has this crazy firing range where he shoots off his back porch onto a mountianside. tell you the truth, this guy as never driven a kart. he just saw them on tv and he said, i can do that. i pray to god, he isnt full of schit. this could be cool.

tell him there is a race out at marina airport this saturday, 7/5. he can go out there and get in for like $7 and stroll around the pits. guys there are very friendly about sharing info. if hes interseted i can also recommend a shop down in monterey that he can hook up with.

Wow, that sounds like fun. Well, except for going through a tunnel @ 120 in a kart.

Almost completely off-topic (so sue me...)
What's the diff between an ME and a CE? An ME builds weapons; a CE builds targets...
