The 2014 racing season has started. I can’t wait to get back on the track and race. My kart is tuned and adjusted, since I grew a little since last year. We have a trailer to haul the go kart and I have a new helmet. My trailer is fun and we can get to practice and races a lot more easy now. Of course, both the helmet and trailer have the KidzSpeed logo.
This year I will be racing at F1 New Jersey Motorsports Park (NJMP) in Millville, NJ and Oakland Valley Race Park (OVRP) in Cuddebackville, NY. I am also competing in the NorthEast Rotax Max Challenge at several tracks between April and October. In October, I am hoping to compete a really BIG race called, The Rotax Pan American Challenge at The GoPro Motorplex in North Carolina. I will be one of the few 8 year olds competing in the youngest class (MicroMax), that is for 8-11 year old kart racers. The winners of this race will be eligible to represent our country and compete in the Rotax World Finals in November – “The Olympics of Karting”. My Dad and I have a lot of help this year from Mike Ramirez (Chi-Chi) and John Bonanno, who are helping with tuning and coaching.
While I am having fun and learning how to become a better driver, I get to see my racing buddies including: Alfonso, Justin, Pierce, Sufyan, Craig, Livia, Chloe, Ronnie, Will and Ryan.
Stay tuned and be sure to check my KidzSpeed Facebook page for updates and more photos.
