Entries for The 66 Reaches All New High
As the long Memorial Day Weekend brought pre-entry to a close for The 66, many racers rushed to get theirs in to beat the deadline. Among the long list of additions are popular family of hard to beat racers originally from Vienna, Illinois, the King's. Kara is coming off of her best season yet, looking to continue putting together strong finishes in her Kawasaki powered Triple X chassis. Dereck, 3 time POWRi Microsprint Champion, will look to take down his greatest victory yet in his FTZ Honda powered Triple X. The father of these two, microsprint legend Rick King looks to get back in the microsprint again after a long stretch seldom appearing behind the wheel. He too will be pushing a Kawasaki powered Triple X to take down his first ever $10,000 grand prize. Rick ran wheel to wheel with Mike Phillips throughout the years, as well as maintained a good friendship with him, making this race that much more meaningful to conquer.
