With each passing edition of the SKUSA SuperNationals, the Micro Swift category continues to grow in terms of competitiveness. Each year, the field gets deeper and deeper with numerous possible winners and podium finishers. SuperNats 29 is no different with a sold out field of 48 drivers set to compete in 2026. Nine different drivers have won over the nine editions of the category, meaning that Micro Swift is set to welcome a 10th unique victor on SuperSunday with the graduation of SuperNationals 28 winner Dutch Westbrook up to Mini Swift.
Only two of the top-10 from last year’s field are returning. Jack Kotowski (TKG / Birelart) comes in as the SKUSA Winter Series champion in 2026 after finishing eighth at the SuperNats last year. Kotowski is the only driver in the field to be making his third start in the Micro category at the SuperNationals. This year’s SKUSA Pro Tour champion Beau Wyatt (LEM / Nitro Kart) finished ninth a year ago. In total, 11 drivers are returning from last year’s field, including Tre Sanders (RPM / Nitro Kart) and Shepp Sullivan (VSR / Nitro Kart), who finished 17th and 22nd, respectively. Sanders was the runner-up in the SKUSA Pro Tour standings with one win. Sullivan is a SKUSA SpringNationals winner and was a runner-up at the Texas Sprint Racing Series.

The 2026 season for the ProKart Challenge program is set to close out over the October 3-4 weekend, hosting the fifth and final event of the year. The sixth round of the Superkarts! USA regional championship is heading to the K1 Circuit in Winchester, California. The layout for the weekend will feature the ‘Pro Track with Chicanes’, providing a different challenge from the opening double-round weekend that kicked off the 2026 schedule back in April.
Titles will be on the line across the board with the best five of six championship format for all categories. Three drivers enter the weekend separated by 99 points in the KA100 Senior presented by Hayner Racing Team standings. Stephen Eisert has not won over the first five rounds, however, his consistency has him leading in the chase by 74 points over two-time winner Jake Drew. Archer Eversman is a close third, still seeking that first win on the season as well. Spring Mountain winner Jacob Gulick leads the standings in Pro Shifter presented by Axis Kartsport where the top three are separated by only 46 points. Former series champ Billy Musgrave sits second with two wins while Round Four winner Jesus Vasquez Jr. is in the hunt sitting third in the standings.

NEW COMPOUND TO BEGIN USE IN COMPETITION AT SUPERNATIONALS 29
Superkarts! USA is proud to introduce the newest Evinco compound at SuperNationals 29, replacing the Evinco Red in every class currently competing on that compound. The change takes effect at the start of SuperNationals 29 practice.
The updated SKM4 Yellow compound delivers improved performance and faster lap times, along with better wear resistance and tire life. It is the latest generation in the Evinco tire line used throughout SKUSA competition.
“Together with our longtime partner MG Tires, we are pleased to offer an even better tire than the previous iteration,” explained SKUSA. " The yellow compound offers faster lap times, earlier in the heat cycle as well as longer tire life —things we know our racers will appreciate. The yellow designation also helps with continuity and identification across sister brands."
Customers should be advised that the EVINCO SKH2 Blue tires remain unchanged.
Orders for Evinco Yellow practice tires will begin Friday September 25th, giving competitors the opportunity to test and reserve tires ahead of the Las Vegas event. Ordering, pricing, and availability are listed on the EVINCO website and dealer portals. |

Superkarts! USA and Karting Solutions Group (KSG) are joining forces to deliver the most extensive incentive program in the history of the SKUSA Winter Series (an IAME Series) and the RMC Winter Trophy. The combined program will provide more than $340,000 of value directly to racers and teams.
The announcement comes on the heels of SKUSA and KSG announcing a return to the beloved Orlando Kart Center. While the two series remain separately operated, the back-to-back scheduling helps reduce the travel burden for competitors, families, and teams while creating an extended winter racing destination in Florida.
SKUSA expects a record-breaking start to the 2027 season and believes the racing community that makes it all possible should participate in that success.
“This is all about putting value back into the sport, and rewarding the people who make these programs possible,” SKUSA officials said. “The racers, families, teams, and sponsors are the reason these championships exist. We wanted to build a program that rewards them not only for winning, but also for committing to the series and supporting our ecosystem.”

The 2026 ProKart Challenge championship finished another step toward crowning this year’s title winners, hosting Round Five of the program at the Spring Mountain Karting Complex. The Superkarts! USA regional program visited the Pahrump, Nevada facility over the September 12-13 weekend, contesting the 1.12-mile ‘Full Track’ layout.
KA100 Senior presented by Hayner Racing Team welcomed a new winner on the 2026 season. Texas driver David Ybarra made his debut with fast time in qualifying, posting a 1:13.653 to clear the 25-driver field by nearly two tenths. Qualifying fourth was Archer Eversman, who was able to beat out Round Two winner Matthew Cagle for the win in the Prefinal as Ybarra slipped to fourth behind Gavin McCune. Eversman and Cagle fought for the lead over the first half of the Final before Sebastian Hauser took over. Making his second start on the season, Hauser was able to grab the lead on lap eight and drove away to a 1.6-second advantage for the victory. Ybarra won the battle for second over Eversman while Kameron Perry and Stephen Eisert completed the top five.
