(North Bergen—January 4, 2016) Jersey
City resident Russell Soto, a sophomore at High Tech, has started his outdoor
karting career in the Rotax Junior MAX category, soon to compete at the Club
and Regional levels, announced Dr. Joseph Giammarella, Principal of High Tech.
Only driving skills take
precedent in the Rotax MAX Challenge™ (RMC), a motor sport race formula for
race kart drivers, approved by and in compliance with the CIK-FIA (Commission Internationale de Karting/Federation
Internationale de l’Automobile).
Drivers use checked and sealed Rotax MAX engines for equal performance.
Soto holds high ambitions to excel in
the highly–competitive arenas of engineering and motorsports. Karting, an entry-level form of motorsport,
has been the training ground for all kinds of professional racers, from Formula
One to NASCAR. Involved in this sport since the age of nine, Soto has
demonstrated head-turning talent with only a minimum of the financial resources
of most of his competitors. Thus, Soto
seeks sponsorship for his racing career through word of mouth and publicity
outlets like the news media.
Always putting his education first, Soto
expressed an affinity for engineering and design at High Tech, a school that
has fueled his interest in the mechanics of motorsports. Russell has documented his experiences in
racing as they happen, and to read more about his journey in the sport that he
