Always looking for new, experienced teen drivers or serious adult racers to join us!

2006 Harborfest Championship Go-Kart race
Galletta's Go-Kart Speedway 2006 Race #8 results:
Sunday, July 30th, 2006 (Two 10-lap Heats and 40-lap Feature) 

 
Rob Jimenez leads Ed Maynes and Matt Stevens Ogre Stevens hold off his hard-charging eldest son, Chris "Smooth Chrusher" Stevens

  (LEFT) Heat #1 was won by Robbie Jimenez chased by Ed Meynes and Matt "Mush" Stevens.
(RIGHT) Heat #2 was won by Wesley James "TrOgre" Stevens chased by Chris "ChrusherComix" Stevens.

The 11-cart feature was one of the best in recent memory at Galletta's Speedway. Early on, Dick Dann (in the Galletta's rental #0) was having the best race of his rookie campaign by holding off all five of the top five points drivers, who shuffled furiously for several green laps, cautions, and restarts, until Ed Meynes finally caught him on a restart. Dick then spent a large chunk of the race holding off the big two, the owners/most experienced vets/only track champions, Chris and Matt, who shuffled back and forth behind him. When Chris and Matt finally got by Dick, they reeled in Ed who had gained a comfortable lead. When it was starting to look like a good battle was brewing, Ed's chain blew in turn three, and he had to fix and go to the back. The next few laps were Chris holding off Matt, until Chris went straight off the track in turn three, a broken front hub the culprit, and he hopped into the #10. Matt inherited the lead and appeared to have his fourth win wrapped up, until his carb gummed up on him in turn three, putting him in the back.

Wesley Stevens leads a tough competitive field at Gallettas Raceway "Me Ogre Win!" says Wesley James Stevens after a win at Galletta's Greenhouse Karting Speedway!
(LEFT) This left Wesley James "The Ogre" Stevens (1st) inheriting the lead, and he was able to hold off Ed Meynes (2nd), Rob Jimenez (3rd) for the win while, Chris (outside) and Matt (inside) battled furiously side-by-side for the final three laps behind Rick Meynes (4th). It was a virtual tie on the final lap, but Chris was awarded the close decision. (RIGHT) Ogre "thinking he's cool" with his post-race Ogarian backwards victory lap. The race was filled with competitive bumper-to-bumper and wheel-to-wheel racing, along with several spectacular accidents caught on tape, making this DVD a great one to own!

Each heat and feature is started in a handicap order, reversed from points-per-event (low-to-high).

Points are scored based on finishing positions in heats and features (with bonus points for each feature lap in the top 3 spots).

NEWS: Points-per-race no longer is valid for point-standings order, as it rewards drivers who race inconsistently and hurts those who race every week (which this season is seven dedicated drivers). Points-per-race is used to determine handicapped starting position only. Your total points is your actual standing. We may have separate Summer (June-September) and Fall (October-November) point standings IF we get enough consistent, dedicated drivers. We will not split the points if this isn't the case. Chris and Matt love the drivers who race every week and are disappointed with those who don't. And remember... the Classic (usually late-September)  is a make-or-break points earner, and if you race in only one race all year, this is THE one to race in. This year, we will arrange a money jackpot for the Classic, and if enough drivers are interested, we will also do it each week. Please discuss it with Matt and Chris!

IMPORTANT NOTICE:
We are planning on racing earlier every Sunday for the rest of the summer (we can't in June and part of July because of Greenhouse chores), so drivers, please come to the track earlier, possibly around 4-4:30pm (or call Matt for details). The earlier everyone arrives, the quicker we can get the event started and finished! Also, we will go to Oswego Speedway this Friday if we get enough drivers and kart transportation, so, again, call Matt. Thanks! Now to the next race...
