  Here is a list of local clubs and contacts.  Come on out
 and watch, it's GREAT FUN and GREAT wheel to wheel racing!!! 8-)

 ***SPRINT RACING***

 I belong to Kinsmen Kart Club.  This club is probaby the most
 popular in the area due to the fact that you have access to the
 track dawn to dusk, 7 days a week, except race days.  The track is 
 a 1/2 mile road course and very smooth.  A typical race day will
 draw approx. 200 karts.  This track is in Dixon Ca. For more 
 information you can call our club secretary Carla Bernardi (510)229-0849.


 Blue Max Kart Club is located in Davis.  This is also a very popular
 club.  Club info (916)635-3733


 Karters of Monterey is located at Laguna Seca.  A temporary track is
 set up in the paddock area.
 Club Info (408)449-1488


 Championship Kart Racing.  This organization is ran by three guys, two
 of which own Cal Kart.  They hold their races at the Santa Clara 
 Fairgrounds.  The track is made up of surface streets throughout a 
 small portion of the grounds off of the Monterey Highway entrance.  They
 usually have a very respectable turnout of some of the fastest guys in 
 the area.  The track itself is very fun, but very rough in places.  There
 is a picnic area which offers a great view of the main straight, the right
 left chicane and turn one.  
 Club Info (408)293-3702


 A new track was just built out in Prairie City(Folsom) which is absolutely
 beautiful.  A club has yet to claim this track as home, but I'm sure a new
 club will form for this.  The track is almost 3/4 mile, very nice layout which
 can be changed to allow the track to have 5 different configurations.
 Club Info (???)

 ***ROAD RACING***

 NCK-Northern Cal. Karters is a road racing club which usually has three 3-4
 races a year at Sears Point.  I have raced with this club oince but prefer to
 run more than just a few times a year.  Therefore I elect to run sprint races.
