Also named presenting sponsor for the two events, AMR will be providing complimentary EMT services with support vehicles for the IMI event along with the series finale at The Track at Centennial.
“AMR’s services and response teams are second to none in the Denver area, and I am ecstatic to have them as part of my team at these events,” commented Rocky Mountain PKC series director Stan Bryniarski. “Keeping our drivers safe is priority #1, and having AMR trackside is a huge step in the direction of overall safety. For the AMR team to step up and want to be part of what we do is great. I can’t thank them enough.”

The Track at Centennial has supported and been an integral part of “Keeping Kids on Track,” a charity event that is hosted by the Denver Bronco Cheerleaders. Due to a scheduling conflict with this event, the Rocky Mountain ProKart Challenge has elected to move their race dates for Rounds 6 & 7 from August 16-18 to one week later, August 23-25. “The RMPKC understands the importance of this event. We fully support such activities and hope that our customers can find an hour or two to stop in and support this worthwhile charity function,” commented series director Stan Bryniarski. “We also sincerely apologize for any inconvenience that this change in scheduling has caused. Hope to see you all at the track!” |

Quality over quantity. That was the theme of the weekend this past weekend at the Rocky Mountain ProKart Challenge opening two rounds in Tooele, Utah at the Miller Motorsports Park. Superkarts! USA and United States Rotax Max Challenge racers from Colorado, Utah, Arizona and Wyoming converged at the always impressive 1-mile facility outside Salt Lake City ready to do battle for the Rocky Mountain region titles.
The Rocky Mountain PKC kicked off its fourth season in Utah. While the entry numbers in several class were lower then expected, total entry count increased over 25% compared to last year’s opening round and is showing no sign of slowing down. The facilities at Miller Motorsports Park, as always left a great impression on racers just as the SKUSA crew managing the race. Staying on schedule, and getting through two full days of racing was completed with ease. Most importantly, drivers and crews alike left the opening two rounds excited for a season of close and exciting racing.
First on the track for two days of racing was the TaG Cadet class. Both days saw absolute domination from a driver new to the regional series this year. Payton Durant was ‘Mr. Perfect’ in Tooele. Sweeping both days in Cadet, Durrant didn’t give the competition a chance to doubt him a single time they hit the track. Saturday, Cody Dempster finished behind Durant with Noah Walter coming home in third. Durrant had an easy path to his four heat race wins, and back to back main event victories on the weekend thanks to starting on pole for every race. The main event on Sunday saw a formidable challenger in Grand Junction’s Tristin MacLeod as he grabbed the holeshot and took the lead from Durrant for the opening circuit. Durrant would reclaim the point and drive to the win. MacLeod ran second nearly the entire race before his axle shifted and he was unable to finish. Derek Deslauriers moved up to second with Riley Cook completing the Sunday podium.

The Rocky Mountain Pro Kart Challenge (RMPKC) is set to go off like a powder keg this coming weekend, as racers from throughout the region are heading to Miller Motorsports Park in Tooele, Utah, for the opening two rounds of the 2013 season. Entering the series’ fourth year, the Superkarts! USA regional program has welcomed a steady growth, season after season, thanks to a series of changes, all while sticking to the original SKUSA recipe. This weekend’s opener is expecting drivers from Colorado, Arizona, Wyoming and Utah, with some of the sport’s major operations field drivers in the TaG, Stock Moto and Rotax categories offered for the season.
In 2013, led by series director and long time SKUSA kingpin Stan Bryniarski, the Rocky Mountain PKC brings a new age to what has been, but more importantly what once was, a strong region in the world of shifter kart racing. After years of controversy, track owners in Colorado and Utah have come together under the mediation of Scott Falcone to form a true state series for the first time since the early 2000’s when the region produced talents such as Kyle Ray, Marc Elliott and AJ Noud – as well as young NASCAR standout Chase Elliott, son of NASCAR great Bill Elliott. The region’s karters are applauding SKUSA’s efforts, along with the track owners, for coming together to return the Rocky Mountain area karting to its former glory.
