Race #6 June 4, 2011

Finally the weather is warm and no rain! Dylan's motor is running real well. Here he is waiting to get started.
Dylan (#6x) ran out front with Hemi (#3) most of the time. Then in the main he ran away with it! Here he is working through the field.

All of the kids getting their trophies. Dylan is third from the left.

He was proud of his performance. They selected the fastest 3 karts to go to tech inspection. I had to take the carb apart and verify the jet size. They inspected the spark plug, exhaust and gear ratio. He passed.

McKenzie got confidence with the "Sick" configuration. She started in 3rd postion in the Main. She pushed Zach (#25) into the first corner and then took second and stayed there the entire race! She was pretty excited to place second on her own. She drove perfectly considering the very difficult corner at the end of the backstretch!

Here she is pushing down the straightway.

McKenzie's friend AJ Ottley came with us. This was her first time to the track. She said, "That it was a long day!"

Kenzie stands on the podium for second!

New medals for this race. They are cool!
