KartStars Canada Hosts Another Successful Opener. Round 2 Registration Now Open

Press Release by: KartStars Canada.

KartStars Canada kicked off its second season last weekend as the Region’s racers assembled at Goodwood Kartways for the first event of 2021. Building upon the solid foundation it generated last year, the KartStars team once again produced an outstanding event, with kart count up over 15% from last season, reaching just over 175 entries despite the challenging times Ontario continues to endure. Eleven class wins were earned, and a number of other drivers left happy, from the Jiffy Lube Fast Qualifiers to the eight random draw winners at the closing of the event.

“The first big event of the season always brings a special vibe to the paddock, but this one just seemed extra special,” said KartStars Canada President Daniel Di Leo. “It could be that being back at the track after spending so much time locked down over the winter added to it, but whatever it was, it was just great to take it all in and be a part of it. I know I have mentioned it in the past, but the team that has been assembled to run the KartStars events is just so experienced and so knowledgeable, that nothing really gets them wrong-footed. It was another safe event run on time with the karter in mind, and just another good step as we look to create another great season.”
