First, we would like to thank all of you for making the first race of the 2024 NHKA Racing Series so fun. Although the weather wasn’t ideal, all of you kept up with the changing conditions and put on a great show.
Time to Register for Races 2 & 3
Onward to Races 2 and 3 on July 13 and 14 at Canaan Motor Club – our first two-day event of the season. We love the doubleheader weekends because they give us the chance to all relax together on Saturday night to enjoy some conversation, games, and fun. We will be racing counterclockwise on Half Track 1.
www.bikereg.com/nhka is open for registration. You’ll see a two-day entry option that includes a two-day pit pass. There is also a Sunday-only selection with a single-day pit pass for those only able to race Sunday. If you are only able to race Saturday, please send an email to [email protected] and we will make sure you are entered properly.
New Class for Briggs 206 Racers
Introducing Briggs 206 Medium. Starting with Race 2, this will be a full championship points class with a drop race. The minimum weight is 375lbs. Otherwise, all the same rules apply as with all the 206 classes.
Given the surging popularity of the 206 Senior class, we felt it necessary to add this class to disperse the total number of karts on track at once. This will also give some drivers a class that’s more in line with their weight. While the intent of this move is to spread out entries, if you wish to enter two classes with the same 206-powered kart you may. But please be aware and prepared for the possibility of there only being one race separating your two races.
Also, please be aware that we will cap the number of entries per class. Right now that number is 22. We feel this is a safe number of karts to have out together given the size of the track and speeds we race. We may adjust that number as the season progresses. Bikereg will show you the number of entries as they come in. If you care about championship standings, as always, it is wise to enter those classes early to ensure your starting spot.
Finally, we do not have any Karting Safety Courses scheduled which will help lighten up the race day. However, we will add those classes as we add new members. Stay tuned for further updates in the coming weeks.
