The Commercial Point Karting
Classic (website here,
Facebook page here) is this coming
weekend – August 3 and 4, 2013. The CPKC
(formerly the Commercial Point Grand Prix) has been the highlight of the season
for Bruce Brothers Racing for the past few years. Peter and Conor will both defend the clean
sweeps they had in 2012. The schedule for
this weekend is posted here.
Peter's class is Spec 100 Pipe and Conor's is 80cc Shifter. Practice
starts at 10:00 am on Saturday with the second practice acting as a timed
qualifying session for the heat races. The heat races on Saturday are scheduled
to start at 2:00 pm. The schedule can vary quite a bit, but if I had to
guess, I'd say that Spec 100 Pipe will start no earlier than 3:30-3:45 pm on
Saturday and 80cc Shifter will start no earlier than 4:30-5:00 pm. It takes
some time to park and get settled, so keep that in mind if you plan on coming
down. Admission is free, but if you choose to buy a pit pass, we
have canopies for shade and plenty of folding chairs in our pit area. We
have a reserved spot which should be reasonably close to the grid area (where
karts enter and exit the track near Turn 1). Feature races on Sunday are
scheduled to start at 1:00 pm. I'd guess
that Spec 100 Pipe will start no earlier than 2:15-2:30 pm on Sunday and 80cc
Shifter will start no earlier than 3:15-3:30 pm.
Both boys are entered in the pro races after that – I’d guess 4:00-4:15 pm and 5:00-5:15 pm for Spec 100 Pipe and 80cc Shifter, respectfully. Come on down and enjoy the racing action.

p.s., Our pits look like this, except it's all grass at the CPKC .
