Results: Supercan didn't turn out great, Rob and Todd finished in the top half of the pack.  Piped was the fastest event for the day and Rob finished 5th, but the first 2 finishers couldn't pass tech, due to their use of illegal engines, so that put him in at least 3rd place, depending on how the other two teched.  Unfortunately, Rob was too worried about Todd's finger and forgot to get his own kart teched, so he was disqualified for a top 3 ranking. (He'll never forget to tech again, I bet.)

General Note: It was like driving with the Dukes of Hazard out there.  Karts were flying into hay bails at over 50mph and I heard at least one driver broke his ribs, and there were lots of karts that never finished.  One of the driver's said, "Don't focus on winning, just try to finish."  Todd even broke his middle finger in the second race when someone slammed into his kart at over 40mph and pushed him into a hay bail, catching the front tire and spinning him around.  He thanks Rob for all the safety equipment he had or the crash could have been much worse.  Many of these drivers should have been black flagged for not slowing down right away to give the "real" drivers a chance.

Bottom Line: Rob and Todd had a blast and that is what kart racing is all about.  MM Racing really appreciates the city of Clyde, Ohio, as well as all the volunteers and municipal workers for their hard work.  It takes a ton of time to host an event like this.  Hopefully, we will see a 13th Annual event.
