2010 Championship Results
MKB congratulates all
2010 Club Champions.
And thank you to all participants who came out to race.
A big applause to all volunteers, workers and supporters who
made the racing at MBK possible.
New Timing System
Great news!
We've purchase a used AMB timing system that is normally over $30,000
for under $10k!!!
This
is
the same system that ALL the other kart tracks have been using. Proven,
reliable, and great tech support.
Race Registration will remain the same. There will be a transponder
rental fee per race (see RaceInfo). There will be no additional costs for
those of you that have your own AMB transponder, just the usual
registration.
