Karson Kartage Night was BIG !

What looked like another race night that was going to be rained out turned out to be one that we were able to squeek in before the rain came. I am glad we tried it to get it in because it was a great race night and we had our largest Enduro turnout of the season.

The Late Model class saw some bumps and bruises with a couple of cars into each other after 23 laps of great racing. The Sparks Street Mall sponsored car of Al Dickie, driven by Paul Dejong finally got things going with that car and Paul lead most of the race before young gun Justin Holtom manged to get by. Paul ended up getting into the back of him in corner # 1 and Justin ended up in the wall with Paul right behind him. This left us with a green white checkered finish with Ken Baird back in the winners circle.

Thunder Car owner and driver, Todd Musker, was back again in the winners circle extending his lead in his quest for a repeat of the Thunder Championship. Security Connection's # 03 with Chris MacDonlad behind the wheel seemed to find the right set up on that car. Chris ended up with a second place finish - his best finish so far this season. What car will be out tomorrow? Come on out and see who will step it up this week.

Legends saw Matt Haufe take the checkered for the second week in a row. Legends car count has been up and down this year for some reason, but new in today that Steve Yendall has put his newly rebuilt motor back in and will be with us this week.

Mini Stock saw some great battles all night long and a few chills and spills thrown in for good measure. Nolan Gould made it to the finish line first for his first feature win of the season, with a gaggle of cars hot on his tail. The mini stock class has had some of the best racing this season and expect no less this week. See who take the checkered flag this week, and make sure you are there to cheer on your favorite driver.

Mike Atwill made it back to the winners circle after a few week sweep by Brandon Scott. Pops MacDonald saw some speed and look for him to step it up again this week. It will be interesting to see if anyone has brought something different to the table to get by Mr. Scott this week.

Our enduro was the best so far this year with over 35 cars entered. It was an entertaining show and plenty of cars left after the 100 laps. Due to holidays we were not bale to produce the final, but we will have those later this week. Sorry for the delay.
