As the second national event for the 2016 Dunlop/Xeramic National Road Race Series presented by Russell Karting continues to take shape March 11-13 at Roebling Road Raceway in Savannah, Georgia, additional preparations are continuing in an effort to honor the national champions, as well as many other deserving recipients, as the annual awards presentation for the 2015 VEGA/TSRACING National Road Race Series will also take place that same weekend on Friday March 11 at the nearby Bloomingdale Community Center.

Following a full day of practice on Friday, ending at 5pm, competitors will have the chance to make their way to the Center, as doors will open at 7pm, dinner at 7:30, and the awards presentation at 8pm.

In addition to crowning 29 national champions and other top honorees, many other special awards will be presented, including the latest induction into the World Karting Hall of Fame, always a crowd favorite. Other Special Awards include Family of the Year, Sportsmanship, the coveted Manufacturers Championship Trophy, and much more!!!!!

Tons of Door Prizes and the always entertaining version of Let’s Make Deal will help highlight what should be a fun night for our champions and all involved.

Go Pro Winter Cup Entry Blank Now Online

With stop #2 for the all new WKA Winter Cup Series just a few weeks away at 103rd Street Sports Complex in Jacksonville, Florida, in no time, the rigs will be quickly heading to GoPro Motorplex in Mooresville, North Carolina for the third and final stop for the series inaugural season.

And for competitors trying to stay on top of things, the entry blank for the championship race of the Winter Cup Series is now online. With the Winter Cup events 1 month apart, combined with a tiered fee system, WKA has extended the Tier 1 deadline for the Go Pro Winter Cup event to February 11, giving racers a chance to get home following the Jacksonville event, and catch their breath, instead of having the deadline the weekend OF the Jacksonville event. The Tier 2 deadline is Feb 24, 1 week and 2 days before the events final race.

In addition to honoring the winners of the final race of the 3 race Winter swing, the Champions, as well as Top 3 finishers in each class will also be honored on the spot that Sunday as well, etching their names in the history books as the first ever WKA Winter Cup Champions.

Beginning at the next Winter Cup event and for all WKA events in the future (including Gold Cup), all Briggs LO206 engines will need to be sealed as shown in the photo. The sealing wire must go thru one of the carburator attachment bolts and one of the valve cover bolts. The holes should be a minimum of 5/64″ (.078″) and should be free of sharp edges that could cut the sealing wire. Please insure that your engine bolts are drilled before coming to the track.
