Champ Kart Onboard 2/1/13 - Atlantic City / Heat Race [02:40]
Onboard footage of the Heat Race from the Boardwalk Hall at the Trump Plaza in New Jersey. This weekend is the final of 3 races for the Fatheadz Eyewear Indoor Karting Series. After I qualified 26th out of the 53 karts that entered this prestigious event, I had to race in one of the two Heat Races. I raced in the second Heat Race. I started 5th behind Glen in the #191 kart and had a good start. The kart at times would slide around and I would have a hard time keeping the momentum in the kart. The surface of the track was very unstable. It seemed like once the TQ's had completed their race(s), they would suck up all of the laid down rubber off the surface. The tires were also an issue. The sliding around was from the combination of the tire set and surface of the track. I had a great battle with the #17 kart for 4th place until a caution came out. On the restart, TJ in the #13 kart was having a hard time getting back down into the racing line. I was able to overtake TJ in the #13 kart and go after the #17 kart, but the #17 kart kwpt hopping in the turns, which forced me to go wide and that allowed TJ to get past me. In the end, I finished 5th. This was not good enough to get into the Feature Racem so I had to compete in one of the two Consi Races the next day. The weekend for me was over when I crashed in the Consi Race. I did not make the Feature Race. It didn't matter if we made the Feature Race, or not. What mattered is that we had a great time going down to Atlantic ...

Bluff WIN 12.26.12 FairGrounds [05:18]
The Bluff Man WON the 8th race at Fair Grounds on December 26th! What a nice Christmas present. Al pretty much called it. He entered Bluff MTO thinking that the race would come off the turf and it did. He thought the distance would not be a factor against this group many horses trying the turf as a last resort and it wasn't. He said the 2 week layoff would probably be just right as it would take the edge of and it did! The outside post actually did us a favor because Jumpin Jack Flash had to settle in behind the leaders and relax in third, then second going down the back stretch. Bluff was on the bit the whole way down the backside tugging the jock all the way to the head of the lane. When the time was right he launched his offensive and never looked back. Congratulations to all on our 2nd Victory at the 2nd best track in the US of A!
