TRAK KICKS OFF THE 2022 SEASON WITH SPRING TRAINING AND TRAK RACE 1 THIS WEEKEND!

April 11, 2022, All News

For Immediate Release: April 10, 2022

It’s April and we are going racing! With tracks opening across Ontario this past weekend the Toronto Racing Association of Karters takes the lead kicking off the competition schedule with TRAK Spring Training and TRAK Race 1 taking place this Friday and Saturday.

Spring Training will take place Friday April 15th. The Good Friday Holiday provides a convenient opportunity to complete the first structured event on the calendar. Spring Training will be split into two segments, with Rookie Training and Orientation starting the day and Timed Practice getting underway after lunch. FREE to drivers who register for TRAK Race 1, Rookie Training is mandatory for all members who are new to club racing this year and to those who are looking to join the club for the first time. Fifteen bonus points will be awarded to all drivers who participate in the afternoon ‘Timed Practice’, a great way to start off your 2022 campaign and no better way to prepare for TRAK Race 1 which will take place the very next day.

TRAK Race 1 will take place Saturday April 16th. Sponsored by Reeve Webster Racing in association with The Racing Topic, a podcast produced by Chad Webster Racing. As always, drivers can expect some extra prizes at the podium as long time Club supporter Trevor Reeve always goes over and above. The event will utilize the traditional Long Track Configuration and will follow the standard Qualifying Race format. Registration will take place on-site and will be open all week leading up to and including Saturday morning. Goodwood Kartways has dedicated the entire week to Private Kart Lapping providing ample opportunity for karters to get out and knock off the winter rust while testing and tuning in preparation for TRAK Race 1. Those who come out to practice are permitted to setup and leave trailers on-site leading up to Saturday’s race. Visitors from other Clubs are always welcome! Click HERE for Race 1 Event Details or see below.

Please note: ALL Rookie Drivers intending to participate in Rookie Training must confirm their spot by emailing daniel@goodwoodkartways.com.
