Team Top Kart USA and Tyler Thomas Motorsports pilot Tyler Thomas scored a second place podium result at last weekend’s Superkarts! USA (SKUSA) SuperNationals held on a temporary circuit adjacent to the RIO All Suites Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada. With the podium result, Thomas proved that he will be one of the drivers to beat in 2009 TaG Junior competition in all series of competition.
After looking very good through the test days leading up to the event, Thomas was close to the top of the time charts in Thursday’s official timed sessions. Working with tuner Mike Maurini, the duo worked on a good qualifying setup to ensure up front starting positions for the three heat race format.
After turning a solid 43.897 lap in qualifying, Thomas could be seen fifth on the time charts out of a field of 49 as he would look to begin his quest towards SuperNationals glory. Lining up fifth for the start of each heat race, the Tulsa, Oklahoma pilot would look for consistent race finishes to ensure an upfront starting position for the main event. Read Full Story on EKN.
