1st. Matt Stevens
55,234.5 Points | 168 Wins (35%) | 477 Feature Races [2023 Last Active Race Updated] |
Matt Stevens has had a long and victory-laden career in karts as a driver, engine builder, kart, and track maintainer. He has essentially been the man to beat in every race he’s ever entered, even when racing against larger motors at Oswego Speedway’s Dirt Kartway or when big track drivers come to race, and not only has he only driven karts he built and maintained, but pretty much every kart that has ever beaten him was also built and maintained by him as well, meaning he built almost all the machines that led to his very own defeats! In doing so, he has amassed so many feature wins, track championships, and Klassic/Classic Victories that this page grew too damn big as time went by, and the profile needed to be broken down into multiple pages with expandable sections. It would be exhausting to explain the amm, but you can see them all below:
