7-18-10 Oh Canada!- Region 6
visits Chilliwack
On July 23 - 25 region 6 racers will once again make the
trip north to Canada. There they will meet at the famed kart
track in Chilliwack, British Columbia recently renamed “Greg
Moore Raceway” in honor of the noted Canadian racer who
suffered a tragic death in 1999 at the California Speedway
in Fontana.
This race promises to be a good one, perhaps the best to
date as we enter the second half of the 2010 season. Rumors
abound of notable Canadian kart racers who may drop in, as
well as certain Americans just back from the Rotax Grand
Nationals in New Castle, Indiana.
Those Canadians are fast to be sure, and of course Team
Italkart will be looking to dominate the IAME and
SHIFTER classes as they make plans to defend what
must be considered their home turf. Anyway you break this
down it looks to be a great race, one you definitely won’t
want to miss. So whatever you do don’t let the standings
fool you, with the allowed one drop factored in we have some
very real points battles at hand as the race teams prepare
for round 5. Northwest Karting News will be on
hand for the three day event, covering all on track action,
as well as driver interviews, and photos.
