The sixth and final round of the Superkarts! USA California ProKart Challenge was held over the September 28-29 weekend, returning to the K1 Circuit. The Winchester, California facility sparked up the entry total once again, surpassing the 150-mark for 11 classes in competition. Perfect weather greeted the teams and drivers completing the 20th season for the championship program.
KA100 Senior by P1 Engines class welcomed one entry short of the season high from last month, as 45 drivers contested the final round. For a second time on the season, Jackson Menchu set fast time in qualifying, laying down a 1:03.937 lap to edge out Frankie Mossman by 78 thousandths. Menchu led the first three laps of the Prefinal before the fight began for the top spot. Eventually, Jesus Vasquez Jr. – making his first start in 2024 – came up from ninth to claim the lead and the race win. Vasquez led the first 14 laps of the Final before a charging Shea Aldrich took over the spot after starting sixth. Aldrich was able to escape from the battle behind him for second, driving away to 2.8-second advantage to clinch his second victory of the season. Vasquez held on to second ahead of Keagan Kaminski, Round Four winner John Burke and Menchu – who recorded fast lap of the race.
