FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Monday, September 18, 2023
Considered by many as one of the best events of the year, the Night Race; KartStars Canada Season Finale promises to build on that reputation. Racing under the lights has been an annual tradition at Goodwood Kartways since 2009. The sights, the sounds, the atmosphere, everything is different under the lights and if you have never done it before you don’t want to miss it!
“This race continues to be a favourite for many avid karters and year after year we look to build on that.” Explained Daniel Di Leo. “There’s something unique about racing under the lights and with only one opportunity on our schedule every year, it really is a MUST on your schedule. The kids have a blast! Lit up racing karts, an outdoor movie put on by ‘That’s Sapore’ and a spectacular Fireworks display orchestrated by Marco Signoretti are all part of the program. We encourage participation from outside clubs and welcome you and your family to a great night at the track.”
This year’s edition will once again embrace the KartStars Canada program as some of the best kart racers from the province look to complete their season long championships. Add Kid Karts into the mix and you know the environment is going to be electric.
Featuring a unique single-day format, KartStars Racers will get six on-track sessions for each class entered. Registration will open a bit later than normal as gates open at 9am. Following an 10:30am drivers meeting, practice, qualifying, two heat races, and a pre-final will fill the day all setting the stage for the Finals to be run after the Sunset Break.
Keeping with tradition, LED lights mounted safely will be permitted. KartStars Cadet, KartStars Junior and KartStars Senior will conclude the on-track activities in a true shoot-out format and the regular KartStars raffles will take place before the Fireworks. Kid Karts are also part of the show and traditional to the KartStars Night Race the Snack Bar’s special is the infamous Taco Bowl (limited quantities). Please email thatssapore@gmail.com to reserve. For the children, there will be a movie being played at the podium (banner behind). Popcorn and a bottle of water will be provided compliments of That’s Sapore (while quantities last). Parental/adult supervision is suggested for those who aren’t able to tend to themselves. Kids are encouraged to bring either a sleeping bag or a blankie in case it gets cold, to be comfortable. Parents are encouraged to email thatssapore@gmail.com if their child will be watching the movie so that we can get a sense of how many we will need accommodate (popcorn/water) please.
