Thanks Angie. Pretty impressive list of people heading out of town in a tuff economy to say the least. There will also be some CO Karters working behind the scenes with Kim Kistler in the Tech compound, Debbi Kistler working the registration table, several tuners and mechanics are already there, and word of some additional folks coming out just to watch the racing.
I am looking forward to working with Alan Rudoulph and Terry Bybee on the track, and making sure the event is ran safe, competitive and on time. It is unbelievable how much work really goes into these events on both sides of the fence.I will attempt to shoot updates and pics back if I find the time. The event can be listened to at http://www.superkartsusa.com and followed on http://www.ekartingnews.com discussion threads. Dial us up and root for the home team.
Don’t forget that the next pro round will be at our own Grand Junction Motor Speedway in July. There will be a Regional race just three weeks prior to the SummerNationals at GJMS so we would like to welcome everyone up there to compete, watch, learn or just enjoy the sights and sounds of SKUSA racing.
Take Care,
CUrt KistlerPress Release:
Team HARDKart SuperTuner, Kirk Deason, is heading to Tuscon this weekend in support of Team Ziegler Racing’s new S2 star driver, Eli Ziegler. This will be Ziegler’s first race in the ranks of the fast senior drivers in S2.
When asked about their chances this weekend, Deason stated “Optimistically, we’ve got a top 30 kart in the 30 driver field.”and “We’re looking to improve on our experiences gained in November at the Supernationals where Eli finished a strong 10th in a very tough S5 group of drivers.”
When this reporter approached Eli, the driver was looking for a large rock with which to hit his tuner and had no comment.
Deason then continued to ramble some stuff about the new MG whites opening a new tuning paradigm or something but this reporter had walked away in search of Jeff Field for some REAL insight. Deason added “I’m just here to beat Field!” as a large rock flew past his head.

Did that rock say MOJO on the side?
Angie, thanks for the props but, you did forget Will Ownen my little buddy. This will be his first Skusa race ever and has come a long way in a short time. I wish him a ton of luck against some great drivers in SR.
See you soon, I will be on the plane shortly heading your way.
Sorry about forgetting William Owen! I fixed it.
And to all of the other owners, tuners (including Kirk “Super Tuner” Deason), spectators, parents, cheerleaders, transport drivers, and so on!….. good luck to you, too, and have fun. Just in case your driver doesn’t tell you… Thanks!, cuz they couldn’t do it without you.
Curt, Deb, Kim, and the rest of the SKUSA gang – I hope it all goes well! Sorry I won’t be there this time.
Angie
