The 2015 Superkarts! USA season is shaping up to be another record-breaking and historic year for the sport of karting. The addition of television coverage for the entire SKUSA Pro Tour, thanks to a partnership with CBS Sports Network and Torque.tv, is an unequaled approach to promoting the sport. The return of SKUSA’s national series to Indiana – the origins of the organization – will introduce the program to new racers, as the Pro Tour will visit the New Castle Motorsport Park for this year’s SummerNationals. And last, but certainly not least, the confirmation of a prize package worth over $150,000 will play its role in ensuring that the Pro Tour sees growth for a sixth straight season. The series finale in Nevada has become the biggest karting event in the world….simply put, the SuperNationals IS Vegas. From the Las Vegas Karting Center (XPlex) to the Rio Hotel to Sam Boyd Stadium and back to the Rio, the event has become part of the city’s sports history, and SuperNationals XIX’s new location at the Las Vegas Convention Center signals the move of the official host hotel for the November 18-22 event as well. SKUSA is happy to announce that the Westgate Las Vegas Resort & Casino will be the new home for attendees during the world’s largest karting event in 2015.

For the last 18 years, Superkarts! USA has been capping its season with the running of the famed SuperNationals in Las Vegas, Nevada. The race has developed from its roots of drawing 150+ competitors out at the Las Vegas Kart Center to now regularly topping the 500+ driver mark as the single largest karting event in the world. Over the years, the SKUSA SuperNationals has cemented its place in the sport and its vocabulary, and as such, has also become known by an abbreviated title: the ‘SuperNats’.
For many, it’s simply ’Vegas’.
Superkarts! USA’s return to Las Vegas this coming November for SuperNationals XIX will be marked by a move to an incredibly exciting new venue – the Las Vegas Convention Center – and a brand new and very important partnership with the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority.
