2019 Season Winding Down For Humboldt Outlaw Karts

Eureka, CA (July 29, 2019) – Things are rapidly coming to a close for racers in all divisions for the Humboldt Outlaw Karts. While four races remain on the schedule, only two of them are points-paying events including the event this Saturday August 3. John’s Used Cars & Wreckers will present the action and championships in all divisions could very well be decided by the time the final checkered flag falls.

The PeeWee Predator division was a late addition to the Humboldt Outlaw Karts this season to give completely inexperienced youngsters an opportunity to learn how to get around the track. Adam Myer leads Raylan Ross by only six points. Leonard Ward IV holds the third position.

The Champagne Attorney Service beginner box stock championship appears to be in the hands of Aaliyah Mitchell as her advantage over second place Destiny Lewis is a nearly insurmountable 42 points. Destiny Lewis. Third place is held by Danica Kinsey who on the feature race on June 1.

The championship for the Williamson Financial Group box stocks is still up in the air with four drivers in the running. Grant Proctor’s two feature wins in 2019 have him in the lead by four points over Dylan Combest who won the most recent race on June 23. Third place Janice Walters will have a hard time catching the front duo as she is at a 16-point disadvantage to Proctor. Corbin Green in fourth is a point behind Walters. Austin Bartholomew in fifth faces long odds but still is mathematically alive for the championship.

Nick Ford has won every feature for the Fortuna Wheel & Brake fart karts but only has a six-point lead over Scott Proctor. Third position is held by Amanda Harpe and she’s still well in the fight as she is only 10 behind Ford.

The championship race in the Miclette Family Racing pure stocks looks to be a two-man affair with Leonard Ward having a somewhat comfortable 11-point cushion over Pete Miclette in second. Jordan Miclette and Michael Lawrence hold third and fourth but their 24 and 27 point deficits will require major issues for the front two leaders. David Alves is fifth.

The Wes Green Landscaping 250s is also a two driver race for the title. Dryver Dothage holds the top spot by 13 points over MKinzy Uselton. The fight for third position in the standings is wide open with Landen Green leading fourth-place Maleesa Miles by only two points. Derek Kessler in fifth is only eight markers behind Green.

The Nor Cal Automotive 500 division looks to be well in the hands of Tony Miles. Miles’ lead over Dax Williamson is a substantial 34 points. Cliff Myer is in the third position.

The 2019 season for the Humboldt Outlaw Karts is presented by Steve’s Septic Service and Wes Green Landscaping. Gates open Saturday at 10:00 AM with racing starting at 3:00 PM.

Uselton Plans To Overcome Adversity As 2019 Season Nears End

Eureka, CA (July 25, 2019) – 2019 has been a season of major change for young MKinzy Uselton. The Eureka native came into the year with a new confidence after participating in the Lakeport Indoor Outlaw Kart circuit through the winter months. That experience has helped carry her to perhaps her most successful season behind the wheel in her Legend car at Redwood Acres Raceway and her 250cc outlaw kart with the Humboldt Outlaw Karts.

That isn’t to say that there hasn’t been any bad luck this season. In fact, the worst of it took place in her most recent race in the Legends division at RAR on July 20 when contact sent her hard into the front stretch wall. While Uselton was able to get out of the car on her own, she went to the local hospital for precautionary measures. Everything proved fine in regards to her health however the damage done to her car was extensive enough that she will be unable to participate in the final three events at Redwood Acres Raceway this season. Sadly, that means that Uselton will not be able to potentially earn her best points finish as she is currently third in the division standings.

While her season in a Legends car has come to a premature end, Uselton still has four races left racing on the dirt in her 250cc outlaw kart with the Humboldt Outlaw Karts. Just as she has on the pavement in 2019, Uselton has also shown great improvement on the dirt with a new poise and sureness that has allowed her to be positioned second in the standings. Only two points-paying events remain on the schedule but the deficit of 13 is not impossible to overcome.

Uselton’s next race with the Humboldt Outlaw Karts takes place Saturday August 3. MKinzy and her team would like to thank her sponsors for their support: Auntie Pam Motorsports, Farmer’s Insurance, Mandi Ross Agency, Four Star Realty, John’s Used Cars & Wreckers, Redwood Mechanical, Bay Side Realty, Howard’s Body Shop, Happy Donuts, Higgins Brothers, Joe’s Auto Glass, The Bus Sisters, Miclette Family Racing and Brent Mack.
