Dinescu Racing

More seat time. More lessons. More podiums. 🏁

One of the goals this season has been finding extra opportunities to develop racecraft and confidence outside of club racing, which is why I joined the CRKC arrive-and-drive series.

The first two races delivered a little bit of everything:
✅ Two podium finishes
✅ A first-ever pole position
✅ Valuable racecraft experience
❌ Kart #9 (never again 😂)

The results were great, but the biggest takeaway was seeing the progress that's coming from all those extra laps.

Not every race weekend ends the way you want it to 😩

We came into TRAK Race 5 feeling good about the progress we've been making. Practice was strong and the lap times were consistent. Then... a mechanical issue showed up.

The team worked incredibly hard to track it down, with help from friends across the paddock, but despite everyone's best efforts, I wasn't able to make it to the starting grid for the final. My first-ever DNS (Did Not Start).

Definitely frustrating, but that's racing sometimes.

The good news? We found the problem, got it fixed, and I'm already looking forward to getting back on track next weekend. 💪

Also, the new livery looked pretty awesome... even if it spent most of the day parked. 😂🏁

Track moms are a good luck charm ☘️

Looks like Lewis Hamilton is due a P1 the next time his mum comes to an F1 race in 2026 📈🏆

❤️

The Hamilton brothers both stood on podiums on the same day for the first time 🤝

Nicolas in BTCC and Lewis in F1 🍾

What a weekend 😅💪

Round 1 of the Ontario Inter-Club challenge at Goodwood was easily one of the most intense events of the season so far.

Big field = big chaos 😂

Saturday was probably our strongest practice day yet, with pace and consistency improving session after session. We also had a late-day mechanical failure that turned out to just be dirt in the carburetor 🔧

Race day brought false starts, a red flag after a huge crash and total chaos.

The goal became simple: stay calm, stay clean and stay in it!

We finished P13, but the biggest win was consistency and pace all weekend long. The progress is starting to feel real 📈

Huge thanks to Team UltraKart, my teammates, and all of our sponsors for the support ❤️

Rain changes everything in karting 🌧️🏁

For this week’s Karting Question of the Week, we asked drivers what their number one focus is in the rain… and the answers were honestly really good 👀

From finding grip, to staying smooth or simply staying on track 😅

KartStars Canada Race 1 felt like a real step forward 💪

The pace was strong right from practice and we moved up 2 positions in the pre-final and another one in the final.

Qualifying still needs work, but this whole weekend felt more positive and controlled.

Huge thanks to Team UltraKart, my teammates and all of our sponsors for the support ❤️
