MiniGP: Gulf Coast Karters, Inc. - 7 March 2026

Not the way I expected to start 2026, but it was a hell of an experience. One I hope it isn't a one time deal. Got invited by one of the guys I met during the last track day at COTA last year to take part in this race format. And it was obvious from the get go that this was going to be a trial by fire scenario. With limited track time for the first time at Gulf Coast, and my very first race competition on 2 wheels, I had to learn on the go, adapt to a different style of racing I've ever done, and try not to ruin the race around other riders (Obvious Fail in certain points). With that said, I managed to get comfortable on a small bike I had no prior experience riding, a track I never been to, and the basics of motorcycle riding. And it was fun along the way, hoping I'm also able to apply what I learned on that day to track riding down the line. Thanks so much to Karim, Josh, Zach, and Jeff for their pointers and insight and opportunity.
