In the new digital issue of KartSport Magazine, we take a big-time look at the entire 2008 Florida Winter Tour season; the big winners, the big prizes, the big successes, and the big problems (well, they may not be THAT big…). The June 2008 KartSport Magazine is available FREE to everyone.

The Florida Winter Tour is one tough puppy to slap a label on. What is it, exactly? Confined to three tracks within one state, perhaps it is a glorified regional. But wait- many of its racers come from across the United States, so is it a mini-national? Not so fast; drivers from over 20 countries attend the series, so is it an international extravaganza? Try as you may, the FWT doesn’t fit into any particular category, making it absolutely unique within the Americas. It’s none of the above and all of the above. What is this hybrid mutt that’s known as the FWT?
Those who are jealous of its success like to say that the FWT is nothing more than a fortunate anomaly.
