Thank you, for all the interest in Ace, it means a lot to me.
Glen Carrio
Great Job Carrio Team ! Good Luck on your 2005 Season.
Harry and David ChapelNot to get off topic, but the wheels on that Porsche are tight as hell 😀
And good luck to you and your son Glen…….you make all of us proud!
Great Job Ace!
But remember, he’ll be racing in IRL since CART should be gone by then… And they will have road racing along with the Indy 500.
Someone clue me in here. Where exactly is this kid from, how old is he and when did he race karts in Colorado? Does he still reside within Colorado?

He raced several races in the CSC series in 2003, before moving on to bigger and better things. He and his dad could be found at the tracks getting in practice time. Very nice people, and I wish them the best!

Carrios live down in Monument. I think Ace is 17 now, but oddly enough doesn’t have his driver’s liscense. He raced karts until last year. Started in Jr1, Iguess and moved up though the ranks. Must have been four years ago they went to the IKF Nationals in 60 shifter(?) and came home with both a Duffy and a Screaming Eagle. The kid is gawd-awful fast in a kart.
Adrian’s success is due, in no small part, to his dad. As I understand it, Glenn raced karts at high levels back in the day with people like Lynn Haddock and others. So, Glenn is no stranger to karts and how to make them fast. The karts he prepped for Ace and his younger brother Miles are impecable and always top-notch, no-exspense-spared, no-detail-too small-to-overlook racing machines. I also think he had a stopwatch surgically implanted in his right hand. Any time the kids were on the track, the stopwatch was out and running. Precise, methodical and meticulous would probably best describe Glenn’s approach to racing. All that and a great guy to boot.
I wonder one thing. Ace always had a Spanish Cross on his kart helmet. I wonder if he still does that?
Ace, raced Karts for 5 years.He turned 16 on 1-12-05.Yes,there is a cross on his helmet.We loved racing karts.Miles loved the karts and so do I.
Way to go Guys!!!!!!!! Keep up the good work
Couldn’t of happened to a better group of Guys
Ole George probably thinks it was because of him Ha Ha
