She followed up with consistent top 5's, then some bad luck and a rebound to the center of the podium at Snowshoe! GNCCRacing.com caught up with Kara over the break.

Quick Fill #28: This Week in GNCCJuly 21, 2016Welcome to Quick Fill. The GNCC summer break continues to tick away and while we still have a while before we go racing, the good news is we’re now already a week closer to that time coming. Of course, while I always say that time seems to fly by, others may feel as if the time is just dragging on. If you’re one of those who feel like the time is dragging on, the good news is we’re now just 51 days away from returning to racing at Unadilla.

Quick Fill #27: This Week in GNCCJuly 14, 2016Welcome to Quick Fill. We continue through the 2016 summer break and by this point, I’m sure there are some of you who are already beginning to feel as if summer break is dragging on. The official count until we return to racing at Unadilla is 65 days, which may seem like a really long time but it doesn’t sound that long when you put it in some other forms. That’s also 2 months and 3 days, or 9 weeks and 2 days, 1560 hours, 93,600 minutes, 5,616,000 seconds, or if you want to get extremely technical; 17.76% of the entire year of 2016. When you look at it in some of those figures, 65 days really doesn’t seem that far away.
