| It is interesting to see what karts start where.. notice that there are no Birels in the top 25 spots... no CRGs at all unless they were missnamed.. The 2 Zanardi karts are both in the top 8... a lot of Arrows.. but that is more of a local kart to the track and they run there all the time.. Not many Tony Karts.. For what it is worth dept.. I know not much.. |

There is one more team on a Rotax. Last year, the lone Rotax from MRP was on pole. They ran out of gas mistakenly in one of their stints, costing them a chance at the win. _________________ David Cole

Good morning everyone. Following rain last night, the track was once again wet this morning. To ensure a dry track, morning practice has been pushed back with the driver's meeting taking place now.
The weather looks clear today with no rain but it remains cloudy right now. We'll update you if the scheduled start time changes. Thanks. _________________ David Cole

It's this easy Jason. Open a second window and click on the qualifying results on page 2 of this thread. It will open a third window. Look at numbers then flip screens to look at names.
Did the Rotaxs last 50 laps before pitting? |
