Barkhausen takes Dominican Republic Go-Kart Championship

Dominican Republic’s Go-Kart Championship season concluded last Saturday in Santo Domingo’s Kartodromo go-kart track under harsh weather, but the rains didn’t slow the drivers of the Barkhausen Racing Team, which again took the 1st Place crown.

Twelve year-old racer Diego Barkhausen again bolted from the pole position and sped to first place in both races in the Minimax Category, a victory that secures him the 2010 Rotax Max MiniMax Championship in the category for racers from 8 to 12 hears of age.

The win makes Barkhausen the only competitor with two straight 1st place finishes in the Dominican MiniMax championship in more than three years.
