I just got word late last night that Rod Badger has been declared the new Badger Family Champ in Go-Kart racing at the LeMans Karting Center in Fremont, CA. (Congratualtions, Dad!) I heard the race was a close one, with Chris Badger leading most of the way, but Rod swooped in on the last stretch to win by one-tenth of a second. Ouch, Chris! Better not think you’ve won even if you see the checkered flag. A rematch will happen later this year at the K1 Speed Indoor Go Kart Racing in Anaheim, CA. Jenny likes to drive fast too.
**If you want to date Jenny, you better like speed (or at least be able to handle a standard transmission).

Just to clarify my “victory,” which Chris has a hard time acknowledging. The Checkered Flag was waved, and Chris fell in behind a slower racer and followed him the last 25 yds to the Finish Line. I felt no need to follow someone else across the finish line, simply goosed the accelerator and passed them both on the left, beating Chris by 0.1 second! Lesson learned. One does not enter a ski race, zoom throught the gates, and then check one’s speed 10 yds prior to the finish!
