Meeting Senna

Senna was born in 2008 and started racing in early 2017 when our local indoor kart racing center, SyKart; allowed him to race.  Senna wasn’t the fastest racer in the beginning but there were a lot of young racers that were competitive enough to keep him wanting to go back and do better.  His first ever league, with only a handful of session to practice with, got progressively better throughout the season.  In his first league he didn’t win any races but he did have a couple of second place finishes and the rest were third or lower.  That didn’t stop him from continuing to want to go back and want to learn the art of racing indoor karts.
