Mosport Kartways is preparing for a busy weekend as they host the Champion Ron Fellows Karting Challenge. Round 4 of the CRFKC is set to take place Saturday July 28 and the third annual Briggs & Stratton SummerFest Presented By Briggs & Stratton takes place Sunday July 29 completing the weekend long double header.
Introduced in 2016, the event is focused around Briggs’ racers with the intention of creating a who’s-who showdown in Briggs and Stratton racing. With its limited class structure, increased track time through a unique format is something participants look forward to every year.
“We introduced this event two seasons ago in hopes of creating a true Briggs and Stratton showdown. The CRFKC is known for massive Briggs fields and this event allows us to put the spot light on those talented drivers.” stated event organizer Daniel Di Leo.
“We’ve created a special event that Briggs’ racers look to annually as their Super Bowl of karting. Increased track time, a unique format and a great prize package that includes cash prizes are just a few of the incentives that have created excitement for the event.”
The Briggs and Stratton Summerfest Presented by Briggs & Stratton is a one-day special event. ‘SummerFest Sunday’ is being made possible with continued support from Champion Spark Plugs, Ron Fellows, and Briggs & Stratton Racing. Each has been a major contributor to an impressive prize package.
