I am 60 years old now. My Dad worked for Rupp Manufacturing in the 70s. He developed a rubber curing machine during WW2 and helped Rupp with there rubber snowmobile tracks… I raced Rupp endurance / Sprint Karts First picture of sprint track behind Rupp plant Second picture Mid-Ohio track use to go 110 MPH at 7 years old on back straight. Lost all my Karts over my parents divorce years later… And the Karts I use to have… Now I have 12 year old grandson that’s in K1 electric Karting League now.
