CART Stars of Tomorrow Regional Race: Sonoma, California

One week before the Stars of Tomorrow event in Primm, Nevada, David Jurca traveled to Sonoma, California to take part in round two of the Stars of Tomorrow Regional Series. This was his second time driving an ICC shifter engine and so he wanted some extra practice before the national even in Primm, Nevada.

In qualifying, David suffered a problem with the motor, which forced him to qualify 29th out of 34 competitors. Since there was no prefinal, David would start the final in 29th spot and drive hard to finish 9th. David said, “I was disappointed to have had a problem in qualifying but I guess it is better that it happened here and not one week later. My ITALKART and TM motor were running very well as my lap times were similar to the leader’s when I was out of traffic. My fastest lap time was actually only 2 hundredths of a second slower than the leader’s fastest lap time. With the way my kart was working here, I should be able to have a successful weekend in Primm, Nevada.” As always, David would like to thank his sponsors Best Ceramic, European Tile Inc., Italian Motors, ITALKART, Kuzzins Kustoms, Bell Helmets, MyChron, Serengeti Design, and Jim Mason.
