It never fails to see a number of drivers in contention for the headline shifterkart title on the SKUSA Pro Tour. Many of the previous nine championships were decided in the final laps or even the final corners. Andrew Bujdoso is searching to be the ninth name added to the list of SKUSA champions, heading into the SummerNationals leading the Pro Shifter standings. Bujdoso was set to make his SKUSA debut aboard the Solo Kart after opening up the season with two wins in four rounds with Croc Promotions USA, but we have learned that he and the emerging US operation parted ways earlier this week. Bujdoso will be running under his family’s Checkered Motorsports banner this weekend, and Andrew told us on Tuesday evening that he will still test his Solo Kart in pre-event running on Thursday. He also stated that there is an option for him to jump into an “Italian special” tabbed as a CM Kart, if needed. This is obviously a developing story that we’ll follow all weekend.

The 2019 edition of the Superkarts! USA Pro Tour will come to a thrilling close on the August 9-11 weekend at New Castle Motorsports Park with the 10th running of the SummerNationals. A challenging new track layout has been finalized for the season finale in Indiana, and the excitement is palpable heading into race week, with over 225 pre-entries having already been confirmed. The X30 Senior and X30 Junior class caps have been extended past 44-drivers to deal with the massive interest in the race, and with new entries continually being logged in all classes, the event is expected to top 250 drivers by the time racing goes green on the official Friday practice morning.
Those who have not yet entered, but still wish to take advantage of the pre-registration discount, should head immediately to MotorsportsReg.com to secure a spot on the grid. Pre-registration will close this Sunday, August 4 at 11:59 pm – until then racers can enter here.
Each and every Pro Tour championship battle remains close heading into the SummerNationals, with the leader less than 100 points from his challengers – so the battle for the #1 plates will very likely come down to the fight on Championship Sunday. Each title winner will be included in the 2020 SKUSA Circle of Champions, which will provide them with a sponsorship package for next year’s Pro Tour.

Small item of note, there will be a subtle track change for the SummerNats at New Castle Motorsports Park - we will be adding back in the technical section shown in the illustration above. We’ve had an overwhelming request to do this by numerous #racers and we’re always eager to please. To confirm, the track will be run the week before the ProTour event by the good folks at Great Lakes PKC at their club event. This will be your opportunity to try the new configuration and test for the following weekend. |

Superkarts! USA today confirmed the long-awaited track configuration for August’s SummerNationals event. The fabled New Castle Motorsports Park will once again play host to the series finale, this time on a completely new inaugural track configuration than in years past.
“We’ve been coming to New Castle Motorsports Park for several years,” explained SKUSA’s Tom Kutscher. “While it’s truly one of the finest facilities in the country, some of our most seasoned teams and drivers were eager for a slight change. So, with that said, we’re excited to confirm we’ll be running the newly dubbed ‘SKUSA Super Mile’ configuration for the final race of the ProTour.”

As many of our competitors know, we took several fuel samples at the SKUSA Pro Tour SpringNationals event in Utah last month for further testing.
The following entrants’ fuels were tested:
-
Freddie Slater #727 X30 Junior
-
Ryan Norberg #N1 X30 Senior
-
Matt Johnson #517 X30 Master
In addition to SKUSA’s own analysis, we are happy to report that the three samples submitted to the VP Fuel’s head chemist were all determined not to have any additional ingredients beyond VP C12 and the allowed lubricants. |
