WSK Promotion Announces WSK Asia Pacific Series
 


The cooperation between WSK Promotion and the new Eastern partners is giving life to the WSK Asia Pacific Series consisting in a venture that, within three years, aims at creating and consolidating in Asia the WSK international standard exported worldwide by its Italian promoter. The protagonists of this project are two organizers in Shanghai, Julien Lee and Mark Lange that are planning to organize this new Asian series in alliance with the WSK Promotion.

WSK PROPOSES KARTING LANGUAGE WORLDWIDE
To speak the same language by the same technical and sporting standards, represents one on the main goal that the WSK Promotion aims to reach in its business. It is just in that spirit that the WSK Asia Pacific Series has been conceived in an area that is the home country of many drivers competing at the WSK series in Europe. A lot of Asian drivers are attracted by the above series and arriving in ever-greater numbers, they make up almost 10% of the participants in the current year. Therefore, exporting the WSK pattern to Asia seems to be the obvious thing to choose in order to bring drivers from Eastern countries into line with international standards. It is the same venture that the WSK has been successfully starting since the last year in America with the organization of the American Race in New Jersey in 2010 and the Champions Cup in Canada the coming July 10.

WSK ASIA PACIFIC PROJECT
The WSK Asia Pacific Series has been planned on a three-year basis. The start will be late in the year 2011 with a single event in November. From the next year, the area of interest will concern China, Indonesia, Malaya, Philippines and Thailand. At the beginning, 4 locations making up the calendar 2012 will be selected from the circuits in these countries. The 4 rounds will raise to 5 in the following Series as planned for 2013 and 2014. From a technical point of view, the organizers intend to promote KF2 and KF3 as international classes along with the class Mini. They also aim to attract well-known drivers from the upper classes to give a more promotional impact. The jackpot will be the entry to the Nations Cup for the first two drivers in every class, which represents the link with the European WSK events.
