CAB Racing

I went with my dad to see one of his co-workers's son and nephew race a few times at Dumplin Valley and Ashway, after seeing them having fun and going fast I decided I would like to start racing too.

We started looking for a Kart and found a really nice one on eBay, it had everything but the motor, seat and tires so we placed a bit on it an won it.

Then we took a road trip to Pennsylvania (about 8 hours each way) to pick it up, the seller was a great guy that had been racing for years. He even gave me a kart stand and a great fitting seat too since I was just starting out and didn't have them yet.

We brought it home, tore it apart and repainted the frame, put everything back on it and tried to paint the body. The paint didn't turn out that good, so we ended up using vinyl sheet for the sides and using vinyl numbers, it worked and looked much better than the body paint.

We bought some used DXA tires from Fast Action Karting and had them build us a Blue Plate Briggs motor, we also picked up a few sets of gears and a used clutch too.

After getting everything together one late Friday night (Aug 3, 2007), I decide to at least take my new Kart to practice the follwing night and if it went well, i was going to race it that same night.

Find out how my first night went, also see how some of my other races went to by visiting the Last Race section.

As me and my dad were fixing up my Kart, we decided to create this website to share pictures and my race information with my family and friends that can't make it to the track. I have worked on the website just a short time and hope to add my stuff as the years go by and I figure out how setup my Kart more.
