McCOOK, Neb. — Promoter Starla Werkmeister praised a final weekend of McCook GoKart racing at McCook’s Mini Speedway:

“It was a bittersweet day! We had so much exitement waiting for our season to start, then Covid hit and we weren’t sure we would even get to race.

We ended up being delayed two months, but it was totally worth the wait!

We had such a great season and so much fun! With Kyle and I being first year promoters, we honestly didn’t know what to expect, but we are completely blown away by the amount of support we received from the community and especially all of our racers!

We want to say a huge thank you to everyone that came out to the races!”
