That was the theme of SIMA’s Summer Racing Series Round 5.
FKR was flexing its muscle with 7 karts (including team-owned and affiliates) in the Briggs 206 Light field.

When you see the racers, intent on conversation with their mechanic, driver’s suit unzipped and hanging at the waist, a light of enthusiasm in their eyes as they focus on going faster, one with their machine, it’s easy to see why they race. But what about me, and the dozens like me, who roll their eyes at the necessity of another seat or clutch or, ouch, motor, and keep on paying the bills? What’s up with that? For me, personally, it’s an act of love for my husband, Ched. I can, squeakily, afford to fulfill his dream, and so I do. It’s not a selfless effort. In return, I am part of something that is bigger than myself. Something that has grown to be more than one man’s dream and more about promoting a sport and developing young talent. It’s about growing a team and being a part of a unit that works better as a whole than as individuals. In life, we are all looking for that one place where we simply belong, and that’s what FKR is all about. |
