I think we should vote and vote by points. So like me i would rather run anything but the ssq, so i give open pipe 5, can 3, and ssq 1. then tires i give YDS 3 and burris a 1. Then we make a list of all the people who are going to race next season and total up the points. The options with the highest amount of points wins. That should yield the biggest class with the most amount of people. Anybody in favor of this idea?

This is what we have been told from IKF. "The Header will be RLV 9110 and the pipe is a HPV 3 or the RLV equivalent. Flex length TBD" We will let all of you know when we get a final decision.

We should run what Corey said (That pipe) and some ppl arint happy with the pipe... but if we have a exhaust that EVERYBODY runs in the NW like Portland and Pacs, then we can have more ppl come down and race with us and we can go up there and race... with the pipe right now, we cant race with ANY other club...

After looking for info here is what I found from IKF August Minutes.
HPV pipes on Yamahas for 2010
Motley states that IKF has been planning for some time to go back, originally to do the quiet pipe and then the suggestion was made to do the HPV pipes. The only person who objected to the use of the HPV pipes was Gary from Horstman; he felt they would get a black mark for forcing their pipes on people. A new development has shown in the last week that Horstman has agreed to allow RLV to market the identical pipe. You can either use your HPV pipe or you can buy a HPV or RLV pipe. The advantage being that not everybody is a HPV dealer or a Horstman dealer or not everybody is a RLV dealer. The RLV pipe will be significantly less expensive than the HPV brand pipe; they will both be identical pipes produced by the same people. He only heard a little bit of objection to using the HPV pipe, the most strenuous objection was from Horstman. He heard very few complaints, but according to other sources, there were a lot of complaints. Araki states that he has heard nothing but excitement over it. Seems to be the people that still have Yamahas are pretty excited about wanting this to go through or to at least try it. Motley states the only downside is the price of the HPV pipe, however, many competitors already have this pipe. This way they can buy a pipe that is identical to it but will be significantly less or they can use their HPV pipe at their option. Araki thinks this is a great idea. Scribner is in favor. Motley asks if there is any objection by the Board. He will get something in writing so they can start circulating a clarification for how that is going to work. Holmboe asks which one it will be – Motley replies there are four pipes depending on which category they use them in. Araki asks if it starts with the Rookie Sportsman class – Motley says yes. Motley says anything that has the Superbox muffler on. Says that one of the reasons they started on this was to get a little bit more performance and to quiet them down. Hoegerl asks if they are going to call out a header; Motley says they already have a part number on that header. Araki asks about a flex rule, Motley says yes. Motley says this is for Sprint only. Scribner asks if they are going to vote on this in September. Motley replies they have already voted on it, the only real difference is the fact of using the RLV branded pipe as a choice to the HPV pipe. Motley to write a clarification.

I have the 2009 IKF region 6 gold cup entries. The KT-100 had a total of 9 entries. 4 were at McMinnville and 5 were at pat's acres. out of the 9 entries 4 were the same at both tracks. the reason that they had KT-100's at those 2 IKF events is because that was part of the Oregon State Kart Championship Series (OSKCS) points race. that is a 1.13 average for the year. there are alot of KT-100's in this region and if you all want to race that package your going to have to support it first. To many times as a voting member for going on my 5th year people want classes and state all the people they have and then there is no regional support. for example: Claudio from Ital Kart said if we voted in the ICC tag class he would guarantee 10 entries per race or he would pay the difference to each track. They didn't have 10 entry average and he never sent out checks! so, get your people together race the gold cup races and prove there is an interest.
