10 yr old Levi Lawrence, from Mechanic Falls, Maine is one of the young guns racing at Richmond Karting Speedway. Racing in the Boxstock Division Levi, is currently 2nd in point behind fellow competitor and friend Austin Teras.
The Levi says the key to getting around RKS is, “being smooth in the corners and not jerking it.” Not only does Levi race the car he works on the car in the pits as well, changing the tires.
