The Tasha Fester Memorial Series will always be near and dear to our hearts. We pour our pride, passion, and every bit of heart into keeping Tasha’s legacy alive through this series.

This year, Runestone Area Go Kart Track has decided to pull out of the series, and while the timing wasn’t ideal and we’re disappointed to lose them, we respect their decision.

The good news — we still have SIX incredible race dates lined up, and we’re more committed than ever to making this season meaningful, memorable, and full of the spirit Tasha brought to our community.

Atwater Karting Speedway : June 13th & 14th

Minnewaska Area Go Kart Association: July 18th & 19th

Atwater Karting Speedway: August 8th & 9th

🏁💚💜💙
Help us honor Tasha’s legacy and keep this series strong.

06/03/2026

The Tasha Fester Memorial Series means so much to us, and each year we pour our hearts into making it a weekend that truly honors Tasha and brings our racing family together. As we prepare for this year’s event, we’re hoping to make it even more special with a Fireworks Show to close out the night.

To make that happen, we’re looking for donations from anyone who feels called to help. No amount is too small — every bit goes directly toward creating a beautiful moment for our racers, families, and fans.

Thank you for helping us keep Tasha’s spirit shining bright.
