Why is rick selling, he was just getting a rythem and was starting to adapt to teams racing well.
A founding member of the ever improving Kihi kihi kings team who gives his all to the club and the team.
Hope it isnt the end!!!

I just seen his ad too, would be a shame to lose Rick from Superstocks at Kihikihi.

Hi,
Undecided to be honest. You are right, we have really got on top of all the niggly things with the new car, and spent the money in the right places to get the car working.
I have spoken with the crew tonight and we may just keep it and get some HP out of the engine in the off season. I have 3 options:
Keep it - race it - and keep improving
Take a year off - spend time with the kids - help with NZ's at KK
Replace it with something else
The only way we would replace it is if we could get something better, which is impossible without spending a whole lot of money, which is not my wifes preferred option !!
Time will tell. At the moment the car is getting a birthday after Palmy, although damage was very minimal considering.
Thanks
Rick

My eldest daughter has had a racing kart sitting in the shed for 6 months since I bought it for her. I have only taken her out once !!
She came with us to Teams champs for the first time this year- I think she was excited, especially since she sat on the car during the parade !!
Time will tell - but I am confident this is not the end.
Cheers- Rick

Keep going hard Rick. You were unlucky to miss those big shots in front of us on the Grand Stand Straight. Next time do the full Castronevis and climb the fence not just the wall  |

keep it, have a year off, with maybe the odd skid to keep motor turned over, help kk with champs, your knowledge will be good asset for your club, how old kids, maybe time to think about mini stock, ;D ;D
