Saturday, 6 muscle karts made their way to Cove Valley for the first KUAS 1/4 point race of the season. At the drivers meeting, Troy said the track was going to have lots of bite and it was going to be fast.. he was right. Lets get to the quick run down. Heat 1, a lot of position swapping as turns 1 and 2 bit a lot of drivers. There were a couple spins, most notably Harry McElhaney and Brandon Oldham spun. Mark Bergfelt tried to avoid but was unable to, sliding sideways into Oldham. Even though the B-99 hit on the motor side of his kart, the radiator on the opposite side broke ending his day. Oldham was able to continue on, but a solid dent remained in the side of the "Evil Twin". Finishing Order: 1.) 77x Dan Burket 2.) 707 Paul Deasey 3.)20 Hillary Truitt 4.) XXX Brandon Oldham 5) 12 Harry McElhaney 6)B-99 Mark Bergfelt - DNF- Radiator Heat 2 Another great race as positions were changing back and forth among the remaining 5 muscle karts. Burket made his way to the point and held on for Heat 2 win.
