Great job by Max all weekend culminating with a strong run in the Final.
After getting seriously shuffled back all the way to 28th in the first couple laps, he tore through the field to 16th. With a couple laps to go and a Top 10 in sight, contact not of our doing damaged the kart and yet Max still managed to bring her in 18th of 46.
In spite of the start, contact, and a bumper penalty, we were only a few seconds off the front in 26 laps.
A very encouraging drive.
Way to go Max. 🏁
Thanks to @checkeredmotorsports and @magikkartusa along with Andrew, Roby and Conrad.
The Final goes this morning at 10:44 am ET in the @unitedstatesprokartseries.
Yesterday Max raced his @checkeredmotorsports - @magikkartusa KA 100 Jr to P5, P15 and P6 in the three split field Heats which based on points grids us P15 of the 46 karts of 56 that made the Final.
Max has definitely taken some steps this weekend and now the 26 lapper where they pull as much as 2.5 g's will definitely. test his strength.

Go Max! 🏁
