4-Cycle Super Showdown Set for This Weekend in Phoenix
Second annual gathering at PKRA facility for World Formula and LO 206 racers

For the past 11 months, 4-cycle racers all around the country have been waiting for this weekend to come for a chance to esacep to the desert on Halloween weekend to ‘throwdown’. With the recent boom in 4-cycle based racing around North America, there is a demand for such a unique event.

The braintrust at Showdown Racing LLC, working with PKRA, Briggs & Stratton, IKF, and many others, formed the event to provide a special weekend of racing, brotherhood, and FUN!
This year, the event has drawn racers from all over the United States to compete in the 4-cycle classes over the two day event. With 90 laps of competition, inverted starts, progressively longer heats and a cumulative points structure, the race is unlike any other promoted in North America. A great time is set for the weekend with a long list of drivers that stem from local club champions, national champions in TaG, Rotax, and shifter competition, and drivers who have been in the sport for a short time. A true mix of what the sport of karting has to offer in terms of experience and skill.
With over $5000 in cash prizes up for grabs racing will exciting and close.
