 Can you feel it? The tension, nervousness, excitement and anticipation that’s in the air…it is all for the upcoming Superkarts! USA SuperNationals XV. The parking lot of the Rio All-Suite Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas may be partially empty right now, but in less than 10 days, a transformation will take place as the expanse of asphalt will become the site of the biggest karting event of the year. Over 500 drivers from the United States and around the world will come together on November 16-20 to battle for supremacy in 11 categories, eight of which will see the 2011 SKUSA Pro Tour champion crowned.The big week in Vegas will signify the sixth stop for the eKartingNews.com Trackside Live 2011 Tour. For the third straight year, EKN will be providing live audio broadcasts of the action from the SKUSA SuperNationals. The program will be on Friday with qualifying, and from there, EKN will be live for nearly 24 hours over two days as the drivers post their fast laps in the timed session, work through the three rounds of heat races, and Last Chance Qualifiers to set the grid for the final day of competition. The three-day broadcast continues at 9:30 am on SuperSunday with the opening ceremonies and into the 11 main events to crown this year’s SuperNationals champions. In addition to the live audio, website viewers can watch the live timing feed, provided by Superkarts! USA and Race-Monitor.com.

An added bonus for 2011, EKN will provide live video/audio feed of the podium celebrations inside the Rio following the last main event, once the official results are confirmed. As a precursor to the coverage on the EKN Live page will be the official EKN SKUSA SuperNationals XV Preview series with a detailed look at each class, including a full pre-entry list.
