Britain Announces Team for 2010 12 Hours of Dromo

 

      The first team to officially declare themselves for the 3rd Annual 12 Hours of Dromo, was none other than the team that Patrick Britain will race with this year. Hoping to get the word out soon, and strike fear in every other team that intends to race, this team of drivers is stacked.

     Britain will team with 2 time defending winner and 2009 Dromo GP champion Diego Morales, 2009 United States Indoor Karting champion Jon Kimbrell, 2008 Dromo GP 2nd runner-up Miles Calvin, and 2 time Dromo GP event winner Logan Calvin. With a lineup like that, it is hard to put your money against them.

     "For sure I am very excited, we tried to do something like this last year." Britain said. "The logistics and technicalities didn't work out in 2009, but we had 12 months to figure it out and sure enough we made it happen. No other team will have 5 higher profile drivers that have accomplished more at Dromo 1, and Indoor Karting in general. I hope we strike fear into every other team, we are the team to beat. I don't want to get overconfident or act like we have already won. But, we have given ourselves the best chance to win possible."

     The event will run on Jan. 23-24 with a 9pm green flag. But, first will be the 1st annual S.C.I.K.I. that Britain will step out of the seat and into the race official role to put on what should be one of the biggest events of the year. $2,000 in money and prizes is sure to attract a big crowd, and a lot of fun.

      From IndoorKartingNews.com:

"Winning the big event at your home track is always a major accomplishment for any driver, and this was certainly the case at the 2010 12 Hours of Dromo 1 LeMans Endurance race. After watching the big trophy get stolen last winter by visiting competitors from the Pacific Northwest, a squad of Dromo 1 faithful stepped up their games this time around to deliver a flawless performance that resulted in a satisfying victory. For 2010, the hardware will remain in SoCal. Sponsored by custom helmet painting shop Alive Design, the quintet of Patrick Britain, Jon Kimbrell, Mike Calvin, Logan Calvin and Diego Morales laid down fast laps, but more importantly, they stayed of trouble in the process to score a dominant victory, winning by a full three laps. It was truly an impressive performance."

     "I can't believe it, I have worked so hard for this. My team is amazing, we had such a perfect race. I just can't believe it finally happened. This and the GP championship are my two biggest goals right now, I can check this one off and start focusing on the other." Britain said. 

     Pictures and videos will be uploaded shortly.
