Name: Scott L Ritchie

Kart Number: 666

Age: 44

Why and when did you start racing go-karts? Having been involved in Stock Car racing for a number of years, while living in Austin TX, the opening of the new $140 million Miller Motorsports Park in Utah rekindled my need for speed. Due to the fact that I am on a fixed disability income... Karting was the best option to quench the fire that still burns strong within. I just completed my "Rookie" season with a top 15 in points in the Rotax Masters class. With 7 top 10's and 4 top 5's our season went as expected.

What type of kart do you race? Tony Kart Rotax Max FR 125

Why did you choose the class and chassis you are racing? From past experience I know how fast the "racing budget" can get tossed right out of the trailer during a season. The Rotax Spec class seemed to offer a reasonable level of performance and maintenance schedule.

What advise would you give someone wanting to start racing? Take a class or six and then seat time, seat time, and more seat time!

What are your other hobbies? Writing, Research, World History, & Public Speaking .

what is your favorite saying? If you don't believe that you can win... you won't!

What would you like people to know about you? I am a proud Lifetime Member of Disabled American Veterans due to injuries sustained while a member of the United States Air Force. I am proud of my service to this nation which has provided so many of us the opportunities to pursue our dreams.
