E.E. "Bud" Arfmann

November 18, 1923-January 19, 2009

 

Bud is the one who came to us with the idea about starting a go-kart track. Him and Verna use to park along the road/alley and watch as our kids would race in the parking lot of our shop and though it would be cool to expand this to the community. He would always show up at the track and help with flagging, taking money, picking up stones, handing out flyers around Springfield and surrounding towns promoting the go-kart track. He was always there making sure Tim was grading and making sure the track was ready to go for the races. Him and Verna always stopped to watch the races every Friday & Saturday night. He will surely be missed by all.

 


 

  • You will receive a briefing session on racing safety and regulations. All racers must wear closed toe shoes and long hair must be pulled back into a ponytail. We will provide you with all the racing gear needed.

  • Please remember that this Karting is real racing and not an amusement ride. Accidents can happen if you do not follow the rules and pay attention to flags.

  • Kart racing is a non-contact sport and this cannot be emphasized strongly enough. We do not tolerate any bumping or blocking. If you are unable to pass a kart, this is no excuse for contact.

  • Schwanke Engines Kartin' in the Park has a strict zero tolerance policy regarding alcohol or drug abuse. Anyone who appears to be under the influence will not be permitted to race.

  • Kart racing poses special risks to people with neck or back problems, heart conditions, anyone who is pregnant, anyone who should not be in a stressful or physically demanding environment. If you have any doubt, please check with your doctor before racing.
