J3 Competition Prepares For The Grand Prix of New Castle

April 8th, 2010

A new and exciting season of racing will hit the famed New Castle, IN Raceway as the WSK North American series will host its opening 2010 round on April 9-11, 2010.   With volatile Midwestern springtime weather, the event at New Castle poses the risk of having to compete in a multitude of conditions, thus adding to the challenges that such a competitive event already imposes. Not to mention that the trip to New Castle will be the first for Andrew as well.

Anchoring the team in the KF2 category will be another newcomer and former number one ranked ICA driver and 2006 Stars of Karting Champion and 2007 SKUSA Super Nationals winner Joel Miller.  Highly familiar with the OTK brand material, Miller will join the team on Thursday as he begins the acclimation process for the upcoming event.  Miller will be utilizing the latest Kosmic offering – Mercury coupled with J3 Competition tuned Vortex power.

A new ‘Technical Highlight’ for the J3 Competition Race Department will be added functionality to its Unipro data acquisition program.  Utilizing the Unipro 6003 system heavily, the Race Department will incorporate two new sensors; power-valve and exhaust temperature.   With its new data program well underway the team will also be analyzing its standard data findings in addition to the new functional outputs on new monitor screens, which will assist the team in better comprehension and visualization.   

“It’s amazing that our Race Department is fully prepared for this event considering our Race Department transporter arrived back at our shop only six days ago from its stint in Florida.  We have to thank everyone who has worked tirelessly to make sure our standards are upheld once again for this event. In addition, we are excited to test some of the new material we are bringing to New Castle and undoubtedly with our data collection we will be able to make the correct selections for each final.” – Team Manager
