Hancock Racing: Daytona Kart Week and Jamie McMurray

Daytona Kart Week was a blast! We did not race but learned a lot. The Corsa and Haase Karts were there in force and had a great showing. If they were not leading the race they were always in the top 5. This year they had the dirt oval karts at the speedway. They ran the manufactures cup during the day and the oval karts at night which made for a full day of racing.
NASCAR drivers Jamie McMurray and AJ Allmendinger were a few of the pro drivers who were competing in the kart races. Jamie did very well running in 4th and 3rd place. AJ did not do so well as his kart had handling issues. I must say Jamie seems like a super nice guys. He was friendly to everyone, even spending some time with a few kids while in the staging lanes. Nice to see fame has not gone to his head.
While we were there I picked up a new GO-PRO camera which we will be using for our on-board filming. All in HD 1080p! 2011 is gonna be a great year and we will be racing Daytona in 2011!
