POSITION ONE MOTORSPORTS PREPARES FOR IKF SPRINT GRAND NATIONALS

 "Team enters night race with high hopes"

 

June 19, 2010 - Looking to take the International Karting Federation (IKF)
2-Cycle Sprint Grand Nationals by storm, Position One Motorsports (POM) has
put together a talented group of drivers to go after multiple race winning
Duffies. With the event taking place at the Willow Springs International
Raceway in Rosamond, California, Position One Motorsports has put together
an eight driver team that will compete in more than a combined twenty-five
classes in the hopes of scoring race wins and podiums.

 

"The Sprint Grand Nationals is a huge event for our team," expressed
Position One Motorsports owner Luis Martinez. "We look forward to this event
and put hours upon hours of prep work into making sure we have everything
perfect. We will have our team trailer there and will be offering trackside
support to our current and potential customers."

 

The Junior and Cadet categories will see two up-and-coming talents of the
sport as Skylar Estrada and Juan Esteban Garcia look to dominate the under
sixteen group of classes. Estrada will compete in his P1 Engines powered
Avanti chassis in Junior 1 Comer, KPV 1, Junior 1 Heavy and KPV 1 Heavy as
he looks to stand atop the podium. Fellow Junior driver Garcia will look to
steer his Maddox chassis to the front of the pack in Junior Yamaha, KPV 2
Heavy, Junior 2 PRD and KPV 2.

 

With only two Junior drivers, POM will enter six pilots in the senior ranks
as they will all enter multiple classes. Making a return to karting for the
Grand Nationals will be Californian Kyle Longmore. Competing in the IAME Cup
and TaG Senior, Longmore will utilize a Position One prepared Maddox kart as
he competes against some of karting's best regulars.

 

Another driver making a return to karting for the Grand Nationals will be
Dylan Nobile. Looking to take advantage of his experience at Willow Springs,
Nobile will enter the Senior PRD, IAME Cup, Senior PRD Heavy and TaG Senior
classes. Just like his senior counterpart Longmore, Nobile will utilize the
Maddox chassis as he hopes to provide the team with a shot at multiple race
wins.

 

Karting regular and Position One Motorsports recent race winner Bobby Kelley
will be back in action for the night event as he will do battle in Senior
PRD and TaG Senior. Looking to have a shot at the victory, Kelley will only
compete in two divisions as he will focus 100% of his attention in being the
first to reach the checkered flag. Kelley will join 2010 teammate Nick
Johnston in the Senior PRD division as the duo looks to work together and
provide Position One Motorsports with the chance at a one - two finish in
one of the most competitive divisions in IKF action. Johnston won't stop
there as he will also compete in KPV 3, Senior PRD Heavy and KPV 4 aboard
his P1 Engines powered Maddox chassis.

 

Taking a break from his K&N West division car, Luis Martinez Jr. will be
back behind the wheel of a Position one Motorsports Maddox kart as he will
compete in Senior PRD Heavy. The final driver under the Position One
Motorsports tent is senior driver Lloyd Mack Jr. Competing on a Maddox
chassis, Mack will compete in six different classes including Senior PRD,
Senior PRD Heavy, IAME Cup, TaG Senior, Senior Super Sportsman and Senior
Super Sportsman Heavy.

 

Position One Motorsports Team Coordinator Colin McGinnis expressed, "We have
a strong team and are looking for good results. The weeklong event should be
a good one."

 

The International Karting Federation 2-Cycle Sprint Grand Nationals will
take place June 22 - 26th.
