It’s the big one. The race everyone in the paddock will be watching from the stands and along the fences on SuperSunday. What began as the S1 division where Alex Barron, Darren Elliott, Memo Gidley, and Scott Speed claimed the first four victories morphed into the Super Pro division. By 2007, the class grabbed international attention with the victory by Italian Marco Ardigo, bringing new winners in Jonathan Thonon, Bas Lammers, Anthony Abbasse, and Paolo de Conto. A total of 10 different countries has been represented on the top step of the podium in the headline shifterkart division at the SKUSA SuperNationals over the past 27 editions.
The dramatic finish to SuperNationals 27 saw Romanian Daniel Vasile (Italkart Factory Racing) earn his first SuperNationals triumph, becoming the 19th different winner over the 27-year span. Vasile will make his third start at the SuperNationals next week, seeking to become the third driver to earn back-to-back victories in the category. Vasile was 11th in the FIA Karting World Championships this year. Read full story on eKartingNews.com |

Each and every SuperNationals since 2003, the TaG Senior division has been one of the most dramatic. From the Toby Scheckter decision in ’04, to the photo finish in 2010 with Andre Nicastro and David Sera, each and every year has been unpredictable. The category, all the way up to today with the Pro X30 division, has featured 21 different winners in the 21 editions on SuperSunday.
Joe Turney (MPG / Kart Republic) is looking to end all of that by becoming the first driver to win in back-to-back years. The British driver won in his first start in 2024, and also become the first Senior driver to win both KA100 Senior and Pro X30 in the same event. The now two-time winner and reigning SKUSA Winter Series champion will have all the attention on him throughout the week in Las Vegas. Read full story on eKartingNews.com |

Like the many categories we’re already previewed for SKUSA SuperNationals 28, the KA100 Senior division has also never had a repeat winner in its short six-year tenure. That said, this streak could be broken this year as three of those former winners are in the 96-driver field, including defending champion Joe Turney (MPG / Kart Republic). The British driver made his SuperNationals debut memorable with a double victory on SuperSunday, winning both KA100 Senior and Pro X30. Turney ran a limited schedule USA schedule this year, winning the SKUSA Winter Series in Pro X30 before making two other visits during the summer. The two other former SuperNats winners include veterans Brandon Lemke (SCR / CS55) and Pauly Massimino (BJR / LN Racing Kart). Lemke made the move to Speed Concepts Racing this year, but finished runner-up to Massimino in the USPKS championship chase. Massimino won at the SKUSA SpringNationals, finishing fifth in the championship despite missing the WinterNationals. Three podium results, including a victory, helped him earn the USPKS crown for 2025. Lemke was fifth last year while Massimino led before contact with a barrier took him out of the race. All three drivers are capable of walking away with another win. Read full story on eKartingNews.com |
