Enduro Racing
The SWRA event at Motorsport Ranch at Cresson was a great weekend for
KRS and Margay pilots. The TAG cadet class, running Gazelles
engines was very competitive. For the first time on a road racing
course (1.3 miles), Cole Glasson, KRS newest and youngest pilot proved
again that he means business. After a few practice laps on a green and
wet course on Friday Cole was in the hunt for fast times. After a few
gear changes and some motor tuning Cole won the Saturday race! The
Sunday race presented different weather and racing circumstances. It
turned out into a beautiful hot and sunny day. With that said
our carburetor settings were off on Sunday, but Cole gave us his best
with a second place finished. Awesome driving kid. Congratulations
Cole!
 Moving on to the TAG Senior Class (Lt) running the
3.1 course mile. On the first heat, Sean
Kelleher piloting a New Margay 1.7 Kart for the first time
dominated the field by 10 plus seconds, DJ Ortiz said " Sean was on a different Zip Code, setting the
fastest time for the class!". Heinz Meyer (Margay/Rotax pilot)
finished 3rd and DJ Ortiz ( Margay/ Rotax) finished 8th after a very brutal and
exciting race with 10 pilots fighting for second spot. Second
heat, Sean Kelleher picked up the lead and left the field battling for second,
on the last lap he lost the Power Valve (Rotax engine) and finished 11th or
so
Combined results from Saturday heats - Heinz Meyer 3rd, DJ Ortiz 5th (DJ
racing for the first time on the new course) and Sean Kelleher 11th. Sean also
raced the Rotax Lt class. While running at the front of the pack the exhaust gasket
leaked out exhaust and melted the new Power Valve components, taking Sean
Kelleher out of the race. Thank you Sean for the awesome job piloting the
New 1.7 Margay kart. The Sunday TAG Senior Heavy Class was dominated by DJ
Ortiz( Margay/Rotax) pilot and owner of KRS. DJ Ortiz won both heats
in the TAG Heavy class. Heinz Meyer finishing 3rd.
