    „Pro-Cart” competition will take place within the Speed Festival “Rally Kurzeme 2012”

    From 23 till 26 August Liepaja and its surroundings will be the venue of the Speed Festival “Rally Kurzeme 2012”, within a framework of which the oldest and the most rich in traditions rally in the Baltics as well as various other events of motor sport, including „Pro Cart” carting competition, will take place.

Unlike the Latvian Carting Championship „Pro-Cart” is a type of national carting competition, where the carting technique and participants of wide range of generations participate. The one may be able to see both the retro cartings, which has experienced their first participations in the Soviet times, as well as sports technique of the newer age.

„During the competition it will be possible to see how the carting has developed within the latest 30 years, as the carts from the last century as well as fast and modern technique will participate in the route. The competition in the route will be very exciting as these small vehicles may develop the speed even more than 100 km/h in the route, and the average speed is close to the same indicator,” tells Valdis Brutāns, „Pro-Cart” Manager.
