2011

Posted by Gil On February - 19 - 2011

 
What is happening in 2011? The kart has been sold but I plan on making a comeback in 2012. This will be with a new kart and most likely running Briggs & Stratton motors, why the change? Why not, the purpose of going racing is to have fun and I (we) had a lot of fun with [...]


Looking forward to Newcastle

Posted by Gil On June - 29 - 2010

The next round of the TEKA series is at Newcastle on the 24-25 July. The team is looking forward to this round as the track at Mt Sugarloaf is one of the best kart tracks in the country and we have always gone well there (all but a few minor mistakes that cost us podiums), [...]
