Widmoser takes heat race win, Kiker on top in ICE
Defending United States Superkart Championship Intercontinental E champion Andy Kiker made a statement today at the Barber Motorsports Park with a win today in the Prefinal. The New Jersey resident ran the quickest lap of the race (1:29.900) in his Anderson prepped Honda CR package, becoming the first kart to officially break the 1:30 mark. Frank Widmoser ran consistent throughout the 30 minute race aboard his Nemesis chassis without any mistakes to grab the Formula E Prefinal win in what would be an attrition event.

Practice gets under way after long delays
Things finally got underway today for the United States Superkart Championship at the Barber Motorsports Park in Birmingham, Alabama.

After two sessions for both the Superkarts and the Big South Road Racing Series (BSRRS) classes, a non-driving accident on the facility delayed practice another half hour, putting the teams under pressure finding the right setup before qualifying at the end of the day.
