The police tell me that it is somebody in our racing gokart world. It is possible that it is somebody who has it in for me at the track. With the evidence left at the crime scene none of my tools are missing out of the trailer who ever did this attempted to take it by cutting the tongue lock and large chain thru the tires.If anyone with any information would you please call SCMP (912)303-1835 ask for Det.Polite or Det.Ray Thank you for reading & posting this.
