2017 marked the debut season for CSK Racing at Tri-C Karters and in the end, we came home with championships in the VLR Spec, Senior, and Masters categories, accruing along the way multiple poles, wins, and podiums. With the arrival of 2018, we look forward to building on that success and are happy to announce the details and pricing structure for both our rental packages and owner services for the upcoming racing season, including info on our upcoming pre-season demo day on January 27, 2018.
CSK Racing will once again provide top level driver coaching from 206 Senior champion and team manager Mike Smith as well as race winner and 3rd overall Senior driver Derek Esquibel. Additionally, drivers will benefit from the technical and setup expertise underneath the tent, whether astride a team rental package or as a VLR owner themselves. Furthermore, our customers can once again expect the comfort of an exclusive air conditioned driver lounge, including a provided lunch, live timing display, and enjoyment of our laid back atmosphere where fun is always the priority.
For 2018, owners of the VLR package wanting to be a part of the CSK Racing team can expect a tent fee of $75 on race day and $25 on Friday practice which includes all of the above in addition to access to tools, fuel for the event and other necessities.
