Over the last seven seasons, the Superkarts! USA Pro Tour has grown in leaps and bounds, setting record-entry numbers along the way. The 2016 season maintained this momentum, and not only did participation hit new marks, so did the level of competition. Winning a Pro Tour title has become a truly prestigious accomplishment, and nine extremely talented drivers got the job done in 2016 to join the lucrative ‘SKUSA Circle of Champions’, which provides them with entry package sponsorship for the 2017 Pro Tour.

After dueling it out for two events and four hard-fought rounds of competition, the talented drivers of the Superkarts! USA Pro Tour will be heading to the 20th annual SuperNationals in mid-November to duke it out one last time for the biggest prize in North American karting: a SKUSA #1 plate. The country’s largest and most-popular national series will crown its champions at the sport’s biggest event and, in keeping with the excitement of the season-ending race, Superkarts! USA is thrilled to announce that a dedicated Pro Tour awards presentation will be held on SuperSunday evening after the racing has been completed. On-track podium celebrations for the SuperNationals will be performed immediately after each class’s main event, opening the door for the Pro Tour to acknowledge its best in the North Hall of the Las Vegas Convention Center after all is said and done.

Over the past seven years, the Superkarts! USA Pro Tour has grown into the largest national karting series in North America. Each event over the past two years has set new attendance marks and, confirming their commitment to building the sport and educating the masses, SKUSA has invested in a program with the CBS Sports Network that is introducing karting to new people with every Pro Tour broadcast. With a focus on continuing the growth of the series and the exposure of the sport, Superkarts! USA is proud to announce the schedule for the 2017 edition of the Pro Tour, which will feature an evolution in the program.
SKUSA will debut a new race to kick-off the 2017 season, as the first-ever WinterNationals will begin the schedule on March 2-4. The seventh annual SpringNationals will remain in the month of May and the SummerNationals will be moved to early August to extend the schedule later in the summer. SKUSA officials focused on working within the existing schedules, and in cooperation with the World Karting Association in adding the new event. The biggest change to the program with the addition of the WinterNationals is the SuperNationals will no longer be an official part of the Pro Tour circuit and will once again become a stand-alone event at the end of the season. The Superkarts! USA Pro Tour will remain a three-event schedule, which will now expand to six races as each event will feature the doubleheader format. The SummerNationals in August will be the finale for the 2017 Pro Tour and the champions will be crowned at this event.

The seventh season of the Superkarts! USA Pro Tour continues with the running of the SummerNationals at the New Castle Motorsports Park. The New Castle, Indiana facility is welcoming 248 pre-entries in nine categories, just a little bit more than the SpringNationals in May to once again set another record for entries outside the SuperNationals. Along with the number of racers, the number of laps are going up as well with 10-lap heat races and 20-lap main events each day for the headline divisions, 18-lap Finals for Master and Junior categories, with reduced laps for Mini and Micro competitors.
Television cameras will be rolling throughout the weekend with the CBS Sports Network and MotorTrendOnDemand coverage continues for the second straight year for Superkarts! USA, helping to promote the many drivers in attendance and spread the word about the sport of karting in general. This weekend is Round Three and Four of the SKUSA Pro Tour championship program, with well over $150,000 in cash and prizes set to be distributed throughout the year, all leading up to the 20th running of the SKUSA SuperNationals this November in Las Vegas.
