Mark “Kato” Kariya
First race took place at Costa Mesa one Friday night in 1984, as he recalls, and was memorable only as he was photographed going into the first turn in good position - only to be taken down by fellow 3rd Div. racer Jack Tanner (son of racing legend Sammy Tanner). Welcome to Speedway!
