 As the August 31st deadline for all reserved drivers to take advantage of our priority pre-entry program has come and gone, we will now begin to coordinate directly with wait-listers in each of the SOLD OUT classes (S2, S4, TaG Junior, TaG Senior and TaG Master) to register them into the opened spots – one by one – and IN ORDER OF THE OFFICIAL SKUSA WAIT LIST. All wait-listers are date and time stamped as to when they sent their request to be put on the wait list and this is how they will get in, as our most recent press release has explained. If you are on this wait list, PLEASE STAND BY and wait to be contacted by our office staff. It will happen as soon as possible, and extra emails and phone calls to check on your spot on the wait list will only delay this process. There are more than 200 drivers on the wait lists at this time. Please be patient, and watch your email! Please do not try to register online without the official signal from SKUSA to do so. Anyone trying to register ahead of their spot on the wait list will be VOIDED from the system and moved to the back of the line.
Anyone wanting to register in the classes of KZ2, S1, S5 and TaG Cadet can do so now when ready. These classes are still open and below their class caps at this time.

At the beginning of the 2012 racing season, Superkarts! USA officials took a stand in supporting their dedicated customers. The organization elected to provide their racers with the lucrative opportunity of being guaranteed a spot in the annual SKUSA SuperNationals in Las Vegas through their new ‘Priority Pre-Entry Program’. Wait lists for the race have grown in length over the last couple of years, and the chance to reserve an entry in the country’s biggest event has become invaluable. Any competitor who raced in this year’s SKUSA Pro Tour SpringNationals, pre-entered for the SummerNationals by July 1, or drove in ANY ProKart Challenge regional event by the June 30-July 1 weekend was provided with a reserved spot on the entry list until August 31. They simply had to register by the end of August. This window of opportunity will close on Friday, August 31 at MIDNIGHT. After that time, all drivers who have not yet entered will then lose their reserved spot – and for most, that means moving to the end of the waiting list for their class if they wish to race in Las Vegas. Simply put, the time is NOW to take advantage of your reserved entry opportunity.
“Last year, we watched a few of our core customers miss out on running in the SuperNationals when the mad rush for pre-entries began. The second we opened registration, other competitors began gobbling up the available grid spots,” offered Tom Kutscher, SKUSA President. “A couple of classes were sold out in a couple of weeks and this caught some of our regular racers off-guard. This year, we wanted to make sure that we took care of the racers who support us month-in and month-out, and our Priority Pre-Entry Program was put into place. We’re going to evolve it a little for 2013, but right now, we urge all of our regular drivers to get their entries in now if they plan to run. Otherwise, they’re going to be out of luck. On September 1, all of the remaining reserved positions will be put back into the inventory and we’re going to start working our way down the waiting list in the applicable classes, getting those drivers officially entered in the race who have been waiting and hoping for a spot. In a handful of classes, we’re still going to be turning people away with our cap of 80 competitors. This year’s race is going to be incredible!”

This message is a bit late now, as the TaG Junior class SOLD OUT at 80 entries last Thursday! Names for the WAIT LIST are coming in steadily. Here's the drill! If you are a driver that wants to race in a class that is already SOLD OUT (and you are not on the RESERVED list), send an email immediately with your name, class, phone number and email address to be added to the wait list for your class. The wait lists are managed closely, and additional drivers WILL get in based on that list! You will get an email confirmation when you have been added to the wait list, so please be patient and trust that these are being handled in the exact order of receipt. If you're not sure what RESERVED means, you are not paying attention!
RESERVED MEANS: If you are a driver who has raced at any SKUSA regional or national event so far this (prior to July 1) -- or you were registered for the Summernats by July 1 -- no worries! Even if your class is already marked sold out, your spot is being held for you, AND YOU HAVE UNTIL AUGUST 31ST to register and pay. Anytime between now and then will work! When you are ready to register for the Supernats, send an email to
This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it
and we will coordinate with you for your spot to be opened to get registered online. If you have a reserved spot, but you KNOW that you cannot race at Supernats 16 due to other commitments or schedule conflicts, please send a courtesy email to
This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it
to release your reserved spot to the next person.

The SKUSA head office is blazing with activity since the online store opened last Saturday night at midnight (July 1st) for online entries for Supernats 16! From the moment that the online Supernats registration opened, the classes of S2, TaG Senior and TaG Master were already SOLD OUT -- having already reached their initial class caps with JUST the racers who have a reserved spot in their class for having run a ProKart Challenge or Pro Tour race so far this season! Now the S4 class has also reached its initial cap of 80 entries and is officially SOLD OUT, mostly including just the reserved drivers. TAG JUNIOR AND TAG CADET WILL BE THE NEXT 2 CLASSES TO REACH THEIR CLASS CAPS WITH 80 ENTRIES EACH!
If you are a driver who has already run a PKC/SKUSA race this year (or you were registered for the Summernats by July 1), no worries! Even if your class is already marked sold out, your spot is being held for you, AND YOU HAVE UNTIL AUGUST 31ST to register and pay, so anytime between now and then will work! When you are ready to register for the Supernats, send an email to
This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it
and we will coordinate with you for your spot to be opened to get registered online. If you have a reserved spot, but you KNOW that you cannot race at Supernats 16 due to other commitments or schedule conflicts, please send a courtesy email to
This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it
to release your reserved spot to the next person.
If you are a driver that wants to race in a class that is already SOLD OUT (and you are not on the RESERVED list), send an email immediately with your name, class, phone number and email address to be added to the wait list for your class. The wait lists are managed closely, and additional drivers WILL get in based on that list! You will get an email confirmation when you have been added to the wait list, so please be patient and trust that these are being handled in the exact order of receipt.
PLEASE do not call the SKUSA office unless you have a question or issue that CANNOT be answered by reading the various notes and terms that have been posted on the SKUSA website and/or in the online store.
The SummerNationals in Utah are just TWO WEEKS AWAY, so we look forward to seeing many of you there! Pre-entry cutoff is Sunday, July 15th, and pit spot reservations are being accepted now!

NOTE: Based on the promise that all drivers that have already run or registered for a SKUSA race in 2012 will have a guaranteed spot in their class for the Supernats until the end of August, the classes of S2, TaG Senior and TaG Master are already SOLD OUT!
If you need to get on the wait list for any of these classes, send an email immediately to
This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it
with your name, class, email address and daytime phone number, and you will be added to the wait list. These are processed in the order received, so don't delay! The S4 class is also dangerously close to the same situation,so drivers are encouraged to register immediately, and to send the same email message if you get a SOLD OUT message when you try to sign up. The current class caps for Supernats 16 are: 40 max for S1, S2, S5, TaG Master and KZ2 -- and 80 for S4, TaG Cadet, TaG Junior and TaG Senior.
