As the holiday season approaches many weekend warriors may be switching off their engines for the 2015 racing season.\u00a0 While this may be true for some, kart racers across the nation will be filing into Greensboro, NC this weekend for one of the most prestigious championship races of the year.\u00a0 The 14th<\/sup> Annual King of the Concrete Go Kart Champion will be crowned this Saturday at the Greensboro Coliseum.<\/p>\n

With a competing field of 300+ drivers from across the nation expected to compete in more than 17 classes on a very small 500 foot indoor concrete track, this is sure to be one of the fastest nights of the holiday season.<\/p>\n

\u201cImagine taking ordinary racing and minimizing it down to a track that’s just 500 feet in length. You get fierce wheel-to-wheel action in six to seven second laps and karts pulling 1.5 lateral G\u2019s in the corners. With 14 karts on the track at a time, it\u2019s challenging to watch and compete,” said Race Promoter Andrew Harris.<\/p>\n
