To Fill the Hole or Not to Fill the Hole - Team Juicy Racing's Racing School and Race Series Forums

A discussion about the hole developed in the third apex of the Bus Stop
went like this. Some of the guys kept digging out a hole at that apex.

Option 1: Keep filling the hole.
Problem: The same drivers digging the hole, kept digging it and throwing the sand and/or dirt used to fill it back on the track. The rest of the field was at risk of sliding on the sand and/or dirt, loosing control and getting into the wall, concrete that is. Skippy logic for continually filling the hole, save the wheel, let everyone else save themselves.

Option 2: Put a cone in the hole and give a penalty for hitting the cone.
Problem: It would upset the few that kept digging the hole, and causing the problem.

Having experience a lurid slide on a lot of the dirt, I, along with JP, Gerardo, and other drivers go with Option 1. What is your view.

Option #3: Do what WKA (World Karting Association) does and remove the bus stop and claim it's too dangerous. What was a fairly challanging track becomes a 2 minute snooze ride.

Option #4: Bind 15 tires together in a 5 tire high triangle and place it over the hole!

Option #5 - Put a cone right next to it, but this time call it an 'Apex Cone' and tell drivers that they need to aim for it and actually hit it. This is a sure fire way to keep most drivers at least a few feet off.

All you need is the right apex cone...

How about this one as an apex cone? It's sure to add another few feet.

Sorry Sid!

Au Contraire Duderonimus... That one will be gone on the warm-up lap. (No offense Sid

)

The competition will be over who can first come back around with that cone on the nose or in the sidepod of their car.

By the way, I'm surprised no one has raised the subject of the possibly inappropriate sexual nature of title of this thread.

1) Where are the morals police?
2) Did anyone know that Susan had it in her?

Particularly with the image of Sid on the pylon...
