Letter from the President
Wednesday, April 28th, 2010I would like to thank everyone who stepped up to keep the April race on the schedule. Getting rained out was all the more disappointing knowing it was the membership who made it happen. This was your race. Even though Mother Nature didn’t cooperate, you should be proud of pulling this event together.
Of course we all owe thanks to our sponsors whose generous support keeps road racing alive at NHMS:
Sue & Bruce Gray – WKA 125 Sprint Shifter 1, Dave Roma (In Memory of Arlene Roma) – Jr. 2 Cycle Sprint Lite, Bill Price of Bill Price Racing – 2 Cycle Sprint Heavy, Koji Kubota – WKA 125 Sprint Shifter 2, Michael Kavanangh – Spec 125 Sprint 1, Jim Slade – RotaxMax Sealed, Michael Camarra of CFMotorsports – Spec 125 Sprint 2, Paul Weckesser – CIK 125 Sprint Shifter 1.
In a final note on the April race, refunds have been mailed out. If you haven’t received yours or have any questions, please give me a call at 617-448-0916.
For road racing, the Kart Fest weekend on October 16-17, 2010 will be here before we know it. And an additional date on the long track is a frequent topic of conversation with NHMS… I’ll let you know as soon as I know if we can make it happen.
But in the meantime, we have six dates locked in for the 12-race Granite State Kart Championship. Rain or shine, we will host three sprint races on a temporary track, and three more up on The Hill. The first date is this Saturday, May 1st. We are expecting a great turnout. I hope all of you will join the fun.

Granite State Kart Championship
Wednesday, January 20th, 2010
Apex Kartsports & CFMotorsports present the
Granite State Kart Championship
Hosted by NHKA & Sugar Hill Speedway
New England sprint karters have been asking for an affordable series that will draw big fields of the best racers for a championship worth winning. The NHKA Racing Series is pleased to be playing a big part in making it reality for the 2010 racing season!
Twelve races. Two venues. Multiple tracks.
Completely separate from our road racing series, NHKA will host six GSKC races at New Hampshire Motor Speedway. There will be three races on the high-speed Hill Course, and three more on SuperNats! inspired temporary tracks. Sugar Hill Speedway will host six races on its newly expanded road course. Now nearly a half-mile long, the new track offers all the twists and Gs of the old one, but more of them.

Classes for everyone. Pricing for anyone.
GSKC’s soon to be announced class structure will welcome TaG, 2-cycle, 4-cycle and shifters. There will be divisions for Masters, Seniors, Juniors and Kids. Fuel and tire rules will be open. And you’ll be glad to know that that the goal is to hold entries to $60 or less.
Be ready for the first race! Saturday May 1, 2010
The first race of the Granite State Kart Championship will be on a temp track at NHMS. A blank slate for every driver – the perfect way to kick off a new series. Be there!
