    Dow Honda Winter Series Wraps Up

    Well that's a wrap folks. We had a great time, we raced 38 times on 10 nights, and made a lot of new friends. Almost 100 drivers jumped in karts to test their skills with almost 350 individual entries. Doing the math? That's over 14,000 laps in the main race and another 5,000 or so in qualification. That's a lot of winter driving.

    We wanted to have a venue where people could check out NCKC, make some friends, save a few bucks, and race with as few yellow flags as ... Read More...

    Race Report and Results - Dow Honda Winter Indoor Classic Race 9

    Call it Riel's revenge- after several consecutive race events where as many as 70% of our field of drivers were able to defeat the baseline time, we finally got shut out. Riel, the TK staffer, hopped in kart 34 to set the fastest time ever (20.335) and that was that. Taha el Alaoui managed to beat his PB and hold on to the Silver Bullet with a 20.40- and there are now only two races remaining to see if that will hold up.

    Race Report and Results - Dow Honda Winter Indoor Classic Race 8

    March Break took its toll on our numbers as only 29 were able to make it over to TK for the 8th race of the 2009 edition of the Dow Honda Indoor Classic. But 26 of these guys (and girl) were able to best the baseline lap of 21.296- that's almost 90% for you math buffs. Fast! And the Silver Bullet took a beating as rookie Taha el Alaoui nailed a 20.46 to grab that honour. That time will be tough to beat in the closing sessions, but there are two remaining sessions to try to ... Read More...
