This past weekend at the Harrisburg Pro Solo, I witnessed one of the most astounding pylon tricks I've ever seen. Alan Sheidler, in his F125 shifter kart, got a pointer cone to stand up without incur

I'm not certain. I did see it, but I didn't fully realize what had happened right off the bat. Perhaps Alan can comment, or other witnesses. There are two possible scenarios: (1) Alan went to the pro

Well, no doubt many of you have heard this story before, but I couldn't resist. At the '97 Nationals, I was working the ESP heat, west side of the north course. Some mostly red Mustang comes roaring

Me either. In my mind the whole "in the box, outta the box" thing is what lets you decide if a cone was hit or not. By definition if the cone isn't outta the box, it wasn't hit, therefore there's no

I agree, that the cone needs to be knocked over, to count as staying on course (though pointer cone combos _may_ get treated differently). When I have had to reach out of my TR3 to knock over a pylon

Pick choice number 1, Mark, and everyone else, please. It's just not in my personality to DNF and not own up to it. As unlikely as it might seem, that is the only way it could have occurred. See my

My feeling is that while you did loop around and re-enter the course (which I consider to be a wise strategy), you did not go back far enough, and so you DNF'ed. You never crossed the line defined by
