Downhome Racing Feature Race Track - East Lansing Kart Track

East Lansing Kart Track

Sunday, August 20, found us at the East Lansing Kart Track on a beautiful sunny day that was perfect for racing. On our arrival we found kids of all ages, the oldest we spoke to was 69 years, powering their way around a beautifully maintained asphalt race track. A wide variety of classes provide drivers of all ages and experience a chance to compete.

It's easy to see why Paul Tracy and Michael Schumacher go back to karts to practice.
	4 wheel drifts are the norm in this corner.

	The track is well laid out and offers multiple lines through many of the corners.
The Start of the race is a very busy time!
	Head down, this driver attempts to pull away from the pack.
It doesn't get any closer than this.
	Jamie Brown and Shannon LaLonde had a slow day to the relief of the racers.
