    White rules flag-to-flag at Red River Kartway

    TRENTON, KY - The action at Red River Kartway in Trenton, Kentucky this past Saturday night, May 4th, was fast and furious as class after class of go-karts thrilled the crowd endlessly. Plenty of racers showed up to try their skills against this tough dirt track and the assembled competition.

    The Stock Heavy feature race was great to watch as the racers vied for the winning position. Crossing the line in first and taking the win was Brad Haley followed closely by Kenny Adcock in second and Keith Futch in third. Another great battle occurred in the Blue class feature as Justin Joiner beat Ethan Moore to the checkers by a matter of inches as Mike Thalmann and Kyle Gibbs battled for third and fourth respecitvely.

    The highlight of the night though was in the Purple class. With a spectacular come-from-behind effort in the heat race to finish second after starting last, local racer Zeb White, age 8, got the spectators on their feet early. Starting from the outside pole in the Purple feature race, White dashed into the lead and stayed there throughout the race to take te checkers and the win. After almost four years of racing without ever winning a race this was a long time coming and it was hard to tell who was more excited, Zeb or his parents Greg and Jennifer.
