The final two days of the Superkarts! USA SuperNationals 28 will go down in history as one of the most unique events over its span of decades. Saturday outside the Las Vegas Motor Speedway brought rain weather into the mix following the morning group final round of heat races, beginning with the Last Chance Qualifiers. Three heat races in the afternoon grouping of classes were conducted before a red flag in the opening heat for Pro X30 forced a stoppage in racing, and eventually a postponement of the final four runs including that class and Pro Shifter. SuperSunday will feature, for the first time, four different heat races and their Last Chance Qualifiers before going into the main events to decide this year’s SuperNationals winners on Sunday.

The 2026 Superkarts! USA Pro Tour is set to get underway this weekend – March 27-29 – with a visit to the Musselman Honda Circuit. The 10th edition of the SKUSA WinterNationals will make its first visit to Tucson, Arizona, marking the third ever trip for Superkarts! USA with previous SpringNationals held in 2011 and 2013. Over 250 entries are set to battle over the eight categories that will contest this year’s championship program.
The Musselman Honda Circuit has been hosting karting events since mid 2000s when the Stars of Karting program held events. Other championships have visited the Tucson facility over the last three decades, including last weekend with the RMC America’s Trophy program making its debut. The 8/10-mile course in the counter-clockwise direction is a replica of the Suzuka circuit in Japan, featuring 12 turns with a bit of elevation change from one end of the track to the other. Its new paved paddock will provide less dirt for teams and competitors to navigate traffic with a secondary paddock established along the backstretch to welcome the over 250 entries.
