15 Feb 2015 Kent, WA – The series says Fall-Winter but this was definitely a Spring- like day. Sunshine with no rain in sight will put smiles on everyone’s faces and a little bit extra pep in the step and more importantly grip on the track surface.

No driver likes using the “rain” tires, just too slow as you have to counter the forces of nature you impose on it with the kart. Love those slicks and grip that makes them work. Parity, it’s a word used in the description of how evenly matched the racers are, this was very apparent in the racing today.

With a warning at the driver’s meeting that aggression toward any competitor like blocking, pushing or swerving will be penalized, it’s not bumper cars. This information translated into some great racing no matter the class.

The bottom line really is all about your skill as a driver and understanding how to use your position on the track to gain position. Here are the driver’s whose skill showed today.
