Local Racing Community Keeps Uselton’s 2019 Season Alive

Eureka, CA (August 22, 2019) - Thanks to the kindness of two fellow racers and a fan, MKinzy Uselton's 2019 season in Redwood Acres Raceway's Legends division will continue.

In her most previous race at RAR on July 20, Uselton was involved in a scary incident which ended up sending her to the hospital. Uselton was uninjured but her blue and yellow #29 Legend car was severely bent to the point where she was going to be unable to compete in the final few events for the season because the damage was so significant.

Thanks to a couple folks in the local racing community, Uselton’s season will be able to continue.

Redwood Acres Raceway Legends division points leader, Leonard Ward offered to sell Uselton a brand-new Legends chassis at a considerable discount. In addition, RAR late model star Luke Hall also pitched in to help in the purchase. Andrew Dilts Trucking also stepped in to assist Uselton’s race team with parts for the new ride. The end result will allow Uselton to return to the track and finish out the season at RAR.

Uselton is currently fifth in the Legends division standings after missing the most recent event on August 10. Not being able to partake in that night’s races dropped her down from third in the standings. The new car will allow her to hopefully finish the year in the top five in points. Though Uselton is eliminated from winning the track championship, she still has a legitimate chance of moving back to third.

Only two races are left on the schedule for Uselton on the Acres pavement with events on September 7 and September 21. The September 7 race will be Fan Appreciation Night at RAR and will be a good chance for fans to meet MKinzy and see her new car. MKinzy will be behind the wheel of her 250cc outlaw kart September 28 and October 12 as the season for the Humboldt Outlaw Karts also nears its conclusion.

Uselton and her entire team wish to send their sincere thanks and appreciation to Leonard Ward, Luke Hall and Andrew Dilts Trucking for allowing her to continue the season in the Legends division. MKinzy would also like to give a special thank you to her Papa Brett Uselton who is worked tirelessly in preparing the new car.
