Introduced to the SKUSA SuperNationals in 2022, the KA100 Master category has secured a third straight year of selling out, this time reaching a record-setting 51-driver mark as of registration closing on October 28. Single-speed ‘expert’ competition has been at the SuperNationals since 2003, with X30 Master / TaG Master running until 2022 with sold out fields year after year. Now the focus is around the KA100 platform and the competition level is still at its best.
The last two winners in KA100 Master at the SuperNationals are in this year’s field. Defending winner Matthew Waters (Rolison Performance Group) caught the paddock by surprise, coming in for his first trip to Vegas to claim the victory. The 34-year-old from Australia returns for a chance to become the first repeat winner in the category. On the other side, Martin Stone (Rolison Performance Group) is seeking a second win in three years after claiming the inaugural victory in 2022. The Texan finished 10th a year ago, and is now racing under the same tent as Waters with RPG. Read full story on eKartingNews.com |

The second half of the 2023 California ProKart Challenge was revised due to the arrival of Hurricane Hilary. The fourth stop of the Superkarts! USA regional series in August was scheduled to be a double-round weekend, hosting Rounds Four and Five. Due to the weather issues, Round Five was moved to the upcoming series finale weekend on September 22-24 at the Adams Motorsports Park in Riverside, California.
The change for the California ProKart Challenge finale weekend at the Adams Motorsports Park will feature three days of action. Five rounds of practice will be offered on Friday, September 22. Saturday will host Round Five of racing, including warm-up, qualifying, Pre-Final and Final. Sunday is a duplicate format to contest the sixth and final round of the California ProKart Challenge, including the race-day podium presentation – and new for the series – the 2023 championship podiums.

The second round of the 2023 Superkarts! USA Winter Series was run under sunny skies and warm temperatures at the AMR Homestead-Miami Motorplex Presented by MG Tires on Sunday, and the biggest winner on the day was Rolison Performance Group X30 driver Donovan Bonilla. The 16-year-old sophomore Senior driver was in the trenches of an epic battle in the headline single-speed pro class that featured all the biggest players in the sport, and he worked his way into the lead, holding off Parolin USA’s Alessandro de Tullio for the triumph. In the Pro Shifter, the much-anticipated head-to-head battle between AJ Myers (Magik Kart USA/Magik Kart) and super-fast Miami local Alan Isambard (ANSA Motorsports/Formula K) did not materialize after Islambard suffered a mechanical in the Prefinal. In Isambard’s absence, Myer grabbed the holeshot and walked away to the win.

With the 2024 Pro Tour dates set and the locations almost set for release, SuperKarts! USA is excited to announce an unprecedented prize package totaling over $310,000 in value and a revamped race format that will put the pro classes in a prime time, afternoon-only time slot. And as has been the case for 2023, every second of Kart Chaser LIVE Streaming will be fully free-to-view.
This prize package builds upon what was already a massive purse in 2023, which totaled $212,000. 2024’s Pro Tour purse will see a near 50% increase. Full details about this groundbreaking prize package have also been posted.
Based in part on the Kart Chaser LIVE Stream viewership data, the Pro X30 and Pro Shifter divisions will move to run only in the afternoon on all three Pro Tour weekends. This will additionally help teams in being able to share staff between their drivers in these two divisions and the Semi-Pro classes that will run in the earlier part of each day, just as teams have been able to do at the SuperNats with the split-day format used from Wednesday to Saturday.
