KAT Motorsports.com would like to wish all a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. And don't forget to route for Neary Bros. Racing this week at sunny Daytona.
The new #34x started on the pole in the heat, but went off track and damaged the sprocket and had to pull off. Started and finished 3rd in the feature this kart was hand full to drive, back to the shop to dialer her in.
What a great time at Kart a Rama Mifflintown Airport. The track was crazy fast and the staff was 2nd to none. The #34 Clone started 5th in the heat, got collected in a wreck on lap 3, NO Caution! aaah. After getting straightened out we were able to slowly real in the leaders and pick off a kart thru each turn untill the final lap passing the leader for the heat win.
Starting pole in the feature the #34 got over taken and dropped back to 3rd. The #34 started to come in and battle back to the lead, but losing brakes quick (this can't be good) and it wasn't lost the brakes and had to make a quick decision to abort the track with injury to fans or driver. DNF! Thanks to Cowboy Lee for all the help.
Looks like the Race season is almost upon us. Maddie will be running a full size kart this year (#17 of coarse) as she did in the last part of last season. It will be tough on driver and crew chief while we get the set up right. Don't worry that's half the fun of getting the kart to turn in faster laps each session.
The practice session was pretty successful, we learned alot about Maddie's Jr. Kart and made quite a few changes thru out the day. The #17 hit the track about 6 sessions, each one turning in better times.
The #34 Champ Kart also hit the track. Lap times were good but later in the day found that we had some minor engine problems that kept us mid pack.
We had a good day with great late season weather and good freinds. We are looking forward to racing NJMP next seasons 12 race schedule.
I wanted to take the opportunity to thank all the bussiness who are checking out our Blog to set up there own. We at KAT Motorsports hope you keep up with us and our racing. If you can......
I know what your thinking, but when KAT Motorsports isn't on the track we like four wheel'n with our Black 89' Jeep Wrangler with the Neary Bros. Racing Team in there Red 91' Jeep Wrangler. The Pits are crued, but if you have the right crew there's no stopping us. Special thanks to Tall Peter of North Jersey Jeep Club for inviting us to Roush Creek.
We had a great time and looking forward to going back real soon.
