Daytona win - Motori Seven, Mike Manning - Giessen

Team News: Mike Manning Karting Starts 2013 with Big Win at Daytona

This past weekend, California based team Mike Manning Karting (Team MMK) had the pleasure of visiting the famous Daytona International Speedway for the opening round of the World Karting Association Manufacturer's Cup. Team owner Mike Manning, and team manager Michel Manning, made the trip out east in an effort to reinstate and initiate Team MMK’s presence on the east coast for 2013. Team MMK had the pleasure of working with “Team Beck” of New York, which consisted of drivers Mike Giessen, Chris Beck, and Phil Pignataro. Giessen and Beck competed in the TAG Sr. classes both days on their MMK-powered Motori 7 Tony Kart power plants, and Pignataro competed in TAG Masters with his CRG-Leopard package. Team MMK proudly came home with the victories of main event and pre-final wins for Sunday’s TAG 2 with 13-time WKA Grand National winner Mike Giessen. On Sunday, Giessen started on pole for the main in TAG Sr., with driver Chris Beck starting in the 11th place position. Giessen kept the lead on the start and quite impressively made the rest of the race “look easy”. He pulled away little by little each lap and set his eye on the prize. Giessen drove such a perfect race, that he set fast lap of the weekend with a 40.446 on lap 11! Beck unfortunately had some bad luck in the main, and after unavoidable contact with other drivers he had to call it an early race, ranking 25th out of the 31 TAG 2 entries. Giessen was ecstatic with his win on Sunday, which redeemed any hard feelings from Saturday’s unfortunate Tech disqualification after coming across the finish line in first place with a 2 tenth lead. “We marked Daytona on our schedule two months ago,” expressed Mike Giessen. “Lots of work and preparation went into the program, from the Tony Kart to the new Motori 7 package. We had one goal and that was to win. The Mike Manning prepared powerplant ran flawless all three days and it provided me the power I needed to win. I really need to thank all my supporters as this was a special win for me.” “Team MMK is excited to have had the opportunity to participate at the highest level of TAG competition and get a win with the Mike Giessen/Team Beck Motori 7 Tony Kart program,” stated team owner Mike Manning, after the big win on Sunday. “The Team Beck WKA program with driver Mike Giessen will be expanding to include the IAME class with MMK Leopard power for Round 2.” Team MMK has high goals for the 2013 season, and will be striving to make a mark at as many races as possible to redeem ourselves after the unfortunate theft we had last summer. Team MMK also had the pleasure of working with driver Tom Gerstner at Daytona, who ran MMK Rokk TT engines on his Kosmic power plant in the TAG Masters division. Team MMK would like to give a big thanks to Matt Beck and to all of our supporters.

Motori Seven in Las Vegas

Stay tuned ! In the next day or two will have a full report on Las Vegas Suypernationals 2012 !!

Motori Seven factory day

TAG ENGINE L4 USA performed at SKUSA SUPERNATIONALS XV

This last week MOTORI Seven has been well represented in Las Vegas for the XV SKUSA Supernationals. Several drivers choose the L4 USA engine package for the TAG Masters class and those guys were very competitive. We observed Robby Mott with Margay chassis and Motori Engine starting on front row for the final, Ethan Wilson on Tony Kart also performing very well from practice to the final, also starting at the front on the final. Other less fortunate drivers started in less favourable positions but still managed to display great racing like Larry Frasier, being rewarded from SKUSA for most improved position on the race.
TAG Senior was a tougher class to be competitive, but with the help of Paolo Fracasso and Gianpaolo Masotto from EKS Italy, and the cooperation of Don Durbin of Cambrian GO KART and Craig Corwin of Corwin Motorsport, the package was made very competitive despite the disadvantages that had to be faced.

There will be more developement to improve the Motori TAG package for Masters and Senior and testing sessions will be scheduled for that.
