The VRCBC kicked off the 2018 racing season with another of our very popular KartFests. This year were back running the quick, gas-powered Sodi RT8 karts at TBC Indoor Kart Racing in Richmond. We had a full grid of 12 karts and 36 drivers.
The electronic timing and scoring system had some last minute hiccups so, in true Vintage racing tradition, the twelve teams quickly resorted to ‘old school’ manual methods and ‘all was good’.

It was a fun evening for VRCBC members and their many guests. Planning is already underway for the season opening KartFest 2019 scheduled for next March.
Next up is the first ‘real’ race event at Mission Raceway Park Road Course on the April 21-22 weekend. See you there!
