SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 18
Following four days of practice, qualifying and heat races at this year’s MG Tires Superkarts! USA SuperNationals presented By Mazda, the arrival of SuperSunday would throw the green flag on a packed day of heated competition and on-track survival. The quality of the racing was mixed, with a few thrilling battles and a couple of dominating performances that turned our attentions to deep in the field at the temporary circuit outside Sam Boyd Stadium in Las Vegas. In the end, Italy’s Marco Ardigo would overcome the finest 125cc field ever assembled in North America to win the headline SuperPro race, benefiting from the retirement of Jonathan Thonon before pulling away from American Gary Carlton to score the $10,000 win. In the TaG Senior class, which featured 80 drivers gunning for a position in the 40-kart grid, Joel Miller would come through to take the prestigious victory, fending off the challenges of John Zartarian to stand atop of the podium.

Preview - Part 1
S3 is being sponsored by RCE Racing and will match the best Stock Honda drivers in the country against one another for ultimate glory. Improving from 25 entries last year to the point where it is reaching the 40-kart field limit this year only serves to show the improving popularity of this spec shifter class. With none of the previous five class winners in the line-up, this year will produce a first time SuperNationals victor in S3.
