OMG RACE FANS! If you were not there you missed the most awesomest nite EVER of racing from Beyond Chaos Racing! We actually were in the top 3 for our warm-up heat and BOTH yes BOTH I DIDN'T STUDDER Qualifying heats! We crossed the scales more times tonite than All of last year. The Caleb AKA Crash ( soon to change I hope) AKA K-MAN was absolutely amazing. He was passing and drafting and moving his way thru the pack toward the front and turning some heads. People were saying Hey what is going on with that black kart this year, what did his pit crew do to make him so good this year compared to last. Well let me tell you. Oh wait if i do i will have to torture you first Hee hee.
OK now about the actual race. K started off 6th beside his friend Courtland and James Moll. The green flag waved and they were off, rounding the curves and racing down the straight away when some jerk pushed him to the top of the track and with nowhere to go slide off the bank! BUT he did not let off the gas and came back up onto the track but in last or 14th place behind the pack now. With tremendous skill ( this is Caleb's wording) he wove his way thru the pack up to 8th place. He stayed there for the rest of the race after a yellow caution. Not bad for our first nite of actual racing. It is going to be a big group again this year with 14 karts out tonite. I am very proud that we finished middle of the pack and only due to errors not lack of power or ability. Hopefully this is a sign that this year will be a good year for us, unlike last year which was BRUUTAL! I was biting my nails all race waiting for the crashes of last year which luckily did not happen. This group are older, more experienced drivers and do less stupid things to cause accidents.
So for all our race fans out there keep your eye on the black #10 we are anything but plain even if our kart has no graphics yet!
