With the event taking place at Atwater Kart Club in Atwater, California, the P1 Engines powered Top Kart driver turned his fourth place qualifying effort and third place result in the heat race into a main event victory against a very talent filled Senior class.
"This was a fun race for me and my first time running the Sr. Yamaha engine. I had a good time with my competitors and I'm happy to have gotten this win," expressed Elliott.
Elliott will look to have the same sort of result at the next round of the Superkarts USA Pro Kart Challenge series as he tries to defend his current points lead in the TaG Senior class. Following that, Elliott will make the cross country trek to BeaveRun for the fourth round of the World Karting Association Manufacturers Cup program, his first attempt at the series.
