The field in the S1 Pro Stock Honda category is only at 14 drivers, but year after year the competition level seems to increase. This season is a great mix of returning stars and graduating S2 drivers. Of course, the SKUSA #1 plate is the ultimate goal. The bulls-eye is 2017 SKUSA Pro Tour champion Jake French (Sodikart). The Texan has a string of podium finishes dating back to 2016 SummerNationals, helping him to earn the title in 2017. The 2017 eKartingNews.com Driver of the Year scored his first Pro Tour victory at the WinterNationals last year, gearing to begin the title defense with another victory or two. Chasing him was Billy Musgrave. The Aluminos driver ended 2017 on a high note, winning at the SuperNationals. A race winner on the SKUSA Pro Tour for the past three years, Musgrave is aiming to finish the year with the SKUSA #1 plate. Read full story on eKartingNews.com |

The California ProKart Challenge is now into the second half of the season after hosting Round Four of the 2017 championship chase at the Santa Maria Karting Association circuit. West of the Alamo wildfires, the flagship Superkarts! USA regional program contested two days of racing on July 7-8 around the 7/10-mile course, helping to shape the title chases even further as the program looks toward the final two rounds in September. The weekend in Santa Maria also marked the debut of the pushback bumper in the X30 Senior and X30 Junior categories. SKUSA officials are optimistic with the addition of the pushback bumper, while understanding it is a learning curve for both the officials and the competitors. On track, however, the competitors are putting in 100% effort toward victories, and those still in the chase are keeping their eye on the year-end prize of a championship.

The halfway point is here for the California ProKart Challenge with the first three rounds of the 2017 championship chase in the books. The remaining three events are on the horizon, with the Superkarts! USA regional program heading back to the Santa Maria Kart Track on July 7-8, home of the Santa Maria Karting Association. A number of the 10 championship battles remain up for grabs with only a select few with a chance to battle down the stretch for the titles. A number of series regulars are at the IKF Sprint Grand Nationals at Santa Maria this weekend, working for a chance at earning the prestigious ‘Duffy’ trophy while putting in work preparing for the California PKC event.
