Darkside & KSKT - Snowbirds Champions -

Orlando, Florida,

Darkside Motorsports and KSKT Racing Products win at the 2010 Snowbird Nationals.    

The Darkside Motorsports Enduro team wins the Futaba 600 enduro race by 7 laps, besting some of the worlds finest drivers in the process.  It was a mix of solid and smart driving by Nick Bell and Mark Burt.  Lighting fast pit stops by Eric Dimmick, Mark Wernimont and Brian Roebuck.  Outstanding support by Joel White, Steve Nelson, and John Fisher.  It was a complete team effort that led to the win. 

In the SK class KSKT Racing products had made up over half of the field in the A-main.  Team Darkside's Nick Bell took the top qualifier honors, marking the 3rd consecutive year that a KSKT chassis started the A-main from the pole position.  Team CRC's Brian Wynn piloted the KSKT house car to the win overcoming a number of crashes, including one that took out TQ Nick Bell, for the KSKT's second Snowbird Championship in the last three years. 

All in all, the 2010 Snowbird Nationals was a very successful event for Darkside and KSKT Racing Products!
