Granite State Kart Championship – Big fields made bigger!

GSKC events typically draw 20+ karts in TaG Masters alone. We’re bringing together all those racers with regulars from the Rotax and shifter series to give you perhaps the biggest fields you’ll face all season.

Northeast Rotax Max Challenge – Double feature double points!

Every year the Northeast Rotax Max Challenge Series produces National Champions. They’ll be racing hard at the NHKA Tripleheader, because both Pre-Final and Final races will be a full 20 laps, and both will count for full championship points.

Northeast Shifter Kart Series – $500 purse!

With cash purses and tight competition, the Northeast Shifter Series has breathed new life into gearbox kart racing. With CFMotorsports upping the purse to an estimated $500, it promises to be some of the most intense racing of the season.

Two Days of All the Racing You Can Handle.

Everyone is welcome to load in Friday night 6-9pm (trackside camping is just $25) to be ready for a full day of racing Saturday starting at 8:15am. Saturday will be GSKC Race 3, and all Rotax and shifter karts are encouraged to join in the action. Saturday night there’ll be a cook out. Sunday we’ll be back on track with Northeast Rotax Max Challenge Race 7 dual-feature, and Northeast Shifter Series Race 3 with an estimated purse of $500.

The event will be held on the high-speed NHMS Hill course, featuring the legendary Bowl. Clear your calendar July 30 & 31 for one of the Northeast’s biggest kart races of the season. Click here to pre-register for Saturday’s GSKC race and save a few bucks.

The Vermont Shifters are having a race on Sunday June 26th at Thunder Road in Barre, VT. All NHKA/GSKC racers from all classes are invited to come and try this challenging 1/4 mile infield road course. No GSKC championship points will be awarded, but if you miss Sugar Hill Speedway you’ll love the high banks and tight turns at Thunder Road.

Driver registration will be $75 including the drivers pit pass, additional pit passes will be $10 per person. Gates open at 9am, practice starts at 11am. The club said that they’d try to get GSKC classes done first so we can get home at a reasonable hour. Plus, the nice folks at NHMS are allowing us to camp at the Hill Course Saturday night for free! So join us for a full weekend of racing fun!
