Tentative 2008 Schedule

Subject to change.

The following dates are a starting point of where our schedule should take us next year. We're going to try and make four of the five Midwest Sprint Series races with a career first for Sam in the Dunlop Tire Road America Supernationals.

Because of this we are most likely going to compete in only half of the scheduled Bridgestone Point Series races at Badger, but as we've experienced in the past this could all easily change. We made it a point to make time for both of their bonus points races as well as the August 24th race which will be a return to the Briggs and Stratton Motorplex at Road America.

We look forward to another great year and hope you can be a part of it too. See you at the track!

2007 Awards Banquet

This past November the Badger Kart Club hosted it's annual awards banquet again at the Olympia Resort in Oconomowoc Wisconsin. As in years past everyone in attendance was treated to a fine night of food and festivities leading up to the awards ceremony.

This year we got the big one! Class Champion in HPV Jr. and although I myself voted earlier in the year for a change in the awards, mainly to something more compact, the monster that we were given put smiles on everyone's faces. With the biggest grin coming from Sam. Another nice caveat in being bestowed this honor was the jacket that all class champions were given. Sam still has it hung in his room as a part of his shrine of past accomplishments. It's a nice looking jacket that probably is equally nice to wear but something tells me it won't leave the Hall of Fame any time soon.

So until we can repeat it again next year we have a fair amount of work to do. In the weeks following the holidays we'll start the long methodical process of stripping the kart down to a bare frame and rebuilding it. And hopefully several weeks and a handsome amount of money later, we'll be able to do it once more.

Happy Holidays to everyone.
