On day two, five of the best karts were ready to battle and Briley started in the back of the pack. “My son moved up fast toward the front of the pack,” said Trenton’s mother Natasha Briley. “He met up with the No. 522 kart and it became an awesome battle between two good friends.” For the next eight laps the friends went head-to-head until the No. 522 had mechanical problems. Trenton took home second place for the second day in a row in his No. 507 with K&N products.

“Our K&N air intake kit with a custom velocity stack gave us an additional 2 horsepower,” said Natasha Briley. “That’s additional to the extra 3 horsepower we picked up before with only our K&N air filter, that’s a total of 5 additional horsepower with K&N.”

Trenton Briley’s next race will be Saturday June 20 at Perris Auto Speedway in The Mickey Thompson, KalGard Lubricants Stadium Series.
