Subject: Woohoo! I beat Eddie Cheever Jr. on the track... by CentralCoaster on 2008/12/24 16:57:11 I went up to an indoor kart place last night and tried 3 races. They have electric carts, so they move pretty well unlike the typical lawnmower carts. I managed some sub 30 second times and made the top 10 for the week. More surprising though, are some of the names on the list: http://www.k1speed.com/scores_page/cb/WEEK_MAIN.htm Apparently Eddie Cheever Jr himself was there earlier in the day from Florida. (F1, Cart, IRL racer, Indy 500 winner). I'm not sure who the other Cheever is, maybe his son or dad or something. All these other guys have raced there a bazillion times, and this guy Pearlman at the top of the list is a professional kart racer, so I don't feel bad about getting beat by him, but it was fun following his line and learning some things. It's not even close to the real thing, but hey, you can bring your dad/son/girlfriend with you as long as they're at least 4' tall. |
