The debut of some new machines and cutting edge mods has competition in the karting arena at an all time high.
Nothing is standing in the way of the karting club making progress from all angles. This, the first night event for 2005, saw a huge spectator turn out.
The 2005 seasons kicks off as the karting club pushes forward to take kart racing to the next level in the coming year.
Gary Hunt, President of the Trinidad & Tobago Karting Association (TTKA) was at Opaloka and Homestead, Miami, FL over the Carnival weekend testing and racing a Birel 05 kart chassis. These karts are built and tuned at RYSA Racing. The Managing Director of this company is Rudy Ramsaroop, a trini now living in FL.
RYSA has a very successful kart racing supply and racing outfit and will be tuning karts for competition here in T&T for 2005....
Karting will now have 2 New Classes and a packed raceday with practice, qualifying, heat1, heat2 & Final Race for each class. More night events are also carded for this year. The new classes are "Sportsman" for kids (9-12) and the World recognised "Rotax" fully spec'd class for advanced drivers. The sportsman class already has 4 new drivers while the Rotax class is rumoured to be packing twice that.
