During the weekend of June 22-23, David Jurca traveled all the way to Vancouver Island for Round 2 of the BCKCA Regional Series. The race was located on a temporary course in a small town called Youbou. For this race, Jurca would participate in the ICC and ICA class.

In ICA, David qualified off pole and finished second in the prefinal just behind his teammate Jordy Vorrath. For the first of two finals, Jurca swapped positions many times with Vorrath and after taking the lead for the final lap, he broke a chain with two corners to go and coasted to the finish line in fourth place. For the second final, Jurca worked his way up to second and chased Vorrath to the end, finishing second.

In the ICC shifter class, Jurca would qualify pole, with teammate Vorrath in second. Jurca would win the prefinal, as well as the first final. In the second final, he would finish second to his Italian Motors teammate. All in all, it was a successful weekend, especially for the Italian Motors/ITALKART team. After the weekend, Jurca said, “Both Jordy and I were very fast this weekend. Our karts were set up to perfection and it was pretty much a race just between the two of us. Losing my chain on the last lap in ICA hurt, but it was a good thing I finished and picked up some points. Currently I am second in points in ICA and leading ICC by a healthy margin. I feel optimistic for the final race of the series in Chilliwack, B.C.” 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.
