6/28/2007 – Galletta’s Karting Club at Oswego Speedway Dirt Track, Outlaw Eric Raponi’s strangely powerful kart wins! +YouTube
Galletta’s Go-Karts at Oswego Speedway’s
Mixed-motor Yard Kart Class on 6/28/2007:
Four Galletta’s Go-Karts traveled to Oswego Speedway for the yard kart class Thursday, June 28th, 2007.
Only 7 racing-adapted yard karts showed (again, we love the racing surface, but this mixed motor rule is hurting some people from coming out with us), and we inverted the points-per-race averages to start the heat and feature.
The heat was won by Matt Stevens and he was followed by Chris Stevens and Wes Stevens, all in 5hp Galletta’s karts.
The 30-lap feature was then won by Eric Raponi (in his strangely powerful 6.5hp OHV #83), who survived several challenges by Matt Stevens (in his Galletta’s 5hp #33). Kyle Reuter (5hp Galletta’s #0) got third, Chris Stevens (5hp Galletta’s #5) got fourth, and Wes Stevens (5hp Galletta’s #4) got fifth, with Joseph Hayden and Lee Bartlett battling it out for the right to score last place. Here are the Oswego Speedway Yard Kart Points Standings (which we use the same formula as Galletta’s Points found in the rules & info section, except we don’t count lead laps for bonus points like we do at Galletta’s).
