The 2026 Superkarts! USA Pro Tour is set to get underway this weekend – March 27-29 – with a visit to the Musselman Honda Circuit. The 10th edition of the SKUSA WinterNationals will make its first visit to Tucson, Arizona, marking the third ever trip for Superkarts! USA with previous SpringNationals held in 2011 and 2013. Over 250 entries are set to battle over the eight categories that will contest this year’s championship program.
The Musselman Honda Circuit has been hosting karting events since mid 2000s when the Stars of Karting program held events. Other championships have visited the Tucson facility over the last three decades, including last weekend with the RMC America’s Trophy program making its debut. The 8/10-mile course in the counter-clockwise direction is a replica of the Suzuka circuit in Japan, featuring 12 turns with a bit of elevation change from one end of the track to the other. Its new paved paddock will provide less dirt for teams and competitors to navigate traffic with a secondary paddock established along the backstretch to welcome the over 250 entries.

The 2026 Superkarts! USA Pro Tour is set to begin in one month, traveling to the Musselman Honda Circuit over the weekend of March 27-29 for the 2026 SKUSA WinterNationals. It will be the third trip to the Tucson, Arizona facility, marking the first time returning since it hosted the 2013 SKUSA SpringNationals. Registration opened on February 23 with over 100 pre-registered entries within the first 24 hours. As the organization prepares for the 17th season of the SKUSA Pro Tour, changes in regulations have been updated for the 2026 program.
Highlighting the changes for the 2026 SKUSA Pro Tour will be the removal of the pushback bumper system in Pro X30, X30 Junior and KA100 Master divisions. These categories have been selected by Superkarts! USA officials to not utilize the front nose cone mounting system that was implemented in SKUSA competition for all IAME categories in 2018. This will make five total categories competing without the pushback bumper, including Pro and Master Shifter.

Superkarts! USA (SKUSA) is set to return to the renowned Musselman Honda Circuit in Tucson, Arizona, having last visited the track 15 years ago. Back in 2011, the likes of Colton Herta, Sabré Cook, Daniel Bray, and Fritz Leesmann fought for bragging rights. This year, the SKUSA ProTour WinterNationals returns to the desert and the newly paved facility to do it all again.
Pre-entry opens today, Monday, February 23, 2026, at 12:00 PM Pacific Time. Following news of the collaboration with ROTAX, anticipation is building for what is expected to be one of the largest and most competitive gatherings of kart racers in North America.
With record participation projected across multiple weekends, SKUSA officials strongly encourage competitors to secure their entries early. Several classes are expected to sell out. Once capacity is reached, additional entries will not be accepted. Drivers and teams who want to guarantee their position on the grid should complete pre-registration as soon as it opens.
In preparation for the event, SKUSA is implementing several important policies to ensure a safe and efficient race weekend for all participants.

SUPERKARTS! USA™ (SKUSA) is pleased to officially confirm that the 2026 Winter Nationals will take place at the Musselman Honda Circuit in Tucson, Arizona March 27-29, 2026. This announcement concludes an extended site selection process that saw several potential venues unable to finalize appropriately scaled logistics capable of supporting the size, and operational needs of the SKUSA ProTour.
“We delayed this announcement because we were committed to securing a facility that meets the high standards our competitors expect,” said SKUSA CEO Tom Kutscher. “Several tracks expressed interest but ultimately could not deliver. Musselman Honda has stepped up with an outstanding venue that rivals any national-level karting facility in the country.”
