Kart Racing

We went to a kart track to rent some karts to drive. There was a local level race. It was nice to see the local kart racing scene. The equipment was pretty much the same as the US. All the regular manufactures were there, Birel, Toney, Hauss, ect. After the sanctioned racing was over we rented some old race karts with Honda potato digger engines. It was Nathan's first shot at racing a kart. Unfortunately Nathan's second session was cut short due to a bent tie rod. I think he might take after his father too much. He said something about a stuck throttle made him do it???










Nathan, Glenn, and I on the strait.



Nathan's first time in a kart.


The locals in the "real" races.








The other track had some drift racing going on. I don’t consider it racing, but it is fun to watch. Those guys definately have some skill.
