Since 2000, Superkarts! USA has offered a shifterkart racing class for ‘older’ drivers at the SKUSA SuperNationals. Plans for SuperNats 29 began with the category being removed from the original class line-up, however, the industry spoke up and Superkarts! USA listened. The class was brought back to the list, making this the third time in history that the SuperNationals will have 11 categories. A total of 36 drivers from eight different countries will compete to become the 19th winner in the category.
Two-time defending winner Billy Musgrave is not registered to compete in Master Shifter, as he is only entered in the Pro Shifter division for SuperNationals 29. Three of the top-five podium finishers from a year ago will be back, all seeking to become the next name in the winner’s list. Texas driver Jordon Musser (PSL / Birelart) was runner-up last year, recording that result for a fourth time in 14 straight starts at the SuperNationals. Musser ran a limited schedule in 2026, including a return to the FIA Karting KZ2 World Cup, although he was not able to transfer into the Final. Belgian driver Sam Claes (Velocity / Sodi Kart) was fourth a year ago in his first start in the category after two previous runs in Pro Shifter – including an impressive P5 in 2019. Jonathan Vitolo (GFC Karting) rounded out the podium in 2025, improving from a P5 he recorded the previous year. Vitolo has no results recorded in 2026 going into the SuperNationals.
