Summary: Stars of Karting - Eastern Division - Ocala Date: April 4, 2008 Venue: Ocala Gran Prix - Ocala, FL Guests: Fritz Leesmann (PSL Karting), Paul Zalud (Stars of Karting), Scott Paape (USA International Raceway) EKN Editor-in-Chief Rob Howden and News Desk Manager David Cole wrapped their first day at the opening round of the Stars of Karting series by sitting down with a trio of guests in the Ocala Grand Prix showroom. The duo takes a look at the new season that faces the Stars of Karting circuit, chatting with both ICC frontrunner Fritz Leesmann and Stars president Paul Zalud. Topics such as the potential national demise of the ICA category and the TaG engine controversy are by no means taboo in this discussion. The session is capped with a visit from Scott Paape, the man at USA International Raceway in Shawano, who detailed the track’s new $5000-to-win Iron Eagle 200 endurance event that is scheduled for June 20-22.
