WCC Calgary-Separate Masters division?

Post by SteveO »

Phil has spoken to Patrick from SRA Karting, and the Rotax Masters group will be run separate from the Seniors at the Calgary rounds of the WCC if there are 10 Masters or more, or if the Seniors have a large enough group. :D

NOTE: You must have a valid 2012 ASN National Karting License since the WCC is a National event.
You can obtain it here, but act soon. You can fax the paper work in, and email payment to get it done quickly -

Now how many Masters are thinking about racing on the August long weekend? I'll update this list as people show interest.

1. Steve Orton
2. Peter Sammon
3. Lonnie Ganz - if work permits
4. Mario Gimenez - if circumstances permit
5. Garrett Smith - if work permits

Steve - I'm trying to be there. Sent off my license forms and made some phone calls.
Starting to update the old beast - new air box required - and maybe a few other bits.
if all works out, will see you there.

Great to hear Peter! After talking to a number of the guys in the paddock on Sunday, we should be close to the 10 driver minimum. After talking with Joey, they should have 20 drivers for the Seniors, so we should be good either way.
I'll update the list as more people show interest/commit.

Peter, I have a spare new style airbox if you need to borrow one, & may be able to help with some other parts as well. I will not be racing as I will be looking after three karts for my kids, & helping with club duties.

Thanks much Phil
Already laid out the cash however - my old box was getting pretty beat
up anyway, as the tabs were starting to crack. Hope to see you there!

That's too bad! I'll cross them off the list then.

Thanks,

By the way, I suppose our marked pit spots do not apply during the WCC ...

That is correct. I believe John Kwong will once again be doling out the spaces, so watch the forums to see when he starts drawing up the parking map.
I asked him to put us together, hopefully the 4 spots that I requested for you are adequate. You're welcome to take advantage of our trailer for the weekend.

Crap! We've lost another Masters driver from this weekends event!

I guess on a positive note, that just gives everyone else a better chance of reaching the podium.... :(

C'mon old guys, get your butts out to the races.
