we were hitting about 120 (+/-) down the back straight in the draft. Quite a fun ride.

Great stuff for sure, but I have a Q: How come you didn't try to pass on those straights?? Clearly you had the slipstream... Seemed like you could try to let them go and then allow that gap to work in your favor by passing them with 5-6 mph more...
Just a thought. Keep it up. I wish I had the $ to do it!

I agree in that it would have been easy to pass but the leader is a sitting duck as I couldn't have pulled far enough away to not allow them to pack back up - burning more fuel in the process. With these karts, we only carry 9.5 litres of fuel and if we lead the whole way (pushing through the wind), it makes it a dicey proposition to run the full 30 mins without risking running it dry). So my strategy was to keep with the lead pack, try some things and be in the mix for the last lap.
