It’s here. Kartmania 9. This will be Race 4, and the only event of the season where championship points will be awarded for qualifying. It’s also the only event the NHKA gets back to its road racing roots. All senior classes will race on the full road course with the chicane. 206 Cadet and 206 Junior will run Track 1 clockwise. It’s gonna be super-fast and super fun!
We hope everyone is ready for a lot of track time. Saturday will be a full day of practice by groups. To get everyone the maximum time behind the wheel, we may try to combine some groups. So be sure to check near the grid Saturday morning for the listing of practice groups and their running order.
On or about 4pm Saturday, we will switch to race groups for qualifying. Your race group may be different from your practice group, so be sure to check the list posted near the grid in the afternoon. Remember, for this weekend only, qualifying pays championship points (1/2 race points) which will be added to your Sunday race points – making this likely the most important qualifying session of your season.
On Sunday morning, we will run two rounds of practice, then go right into timed extended races.
BBQ!!!!!
After the conclusion of Saturday’s on-track activities, you are all invited to join us for a BBQ. We will be serving up pulled pork, mac and cheese, and apple baked beans from the Poor House BBQ in Canaan Village. We will also be grilling burgers and dogs. We have it on good authority that a number of members will be bringing delicious homemade desserts and sides. If you would like to bring your own special dish to share, please let us know at nhkaracingseries@gmail.com There will also be the fun pit decorating contest. The rules are simple: Must be non-political, family-friendly, and not include loud music or noises. And like last year, bribing the judges is not necessarily forbidden… but not guaranteed to work either.
A Few Reminders…
Registration is closed. We will not accept any late registrations.
No one is allowed on the property without a pit pass wristband.
Anyone under 18 years of age (competitor or not) must be with at least one of their parents OR accompanied by an adult in possession of a signed and notarized temporary guardianship letter, which you can download here.
Overnight camping: The gate will be closed at 9pm on both nights. NO ENTRY OR RE-ENTRY AFTER 9PM. You may leave the property at any time, but you must be back by 9pm. No exceptions.
The spec fuel for all Briggs classes is 87 octane pump gas from Jake’s Store/Erving Gas, right next to the Canaan Fire Station, immediately before the center of town when coming from the track.
Spec oil for all Briggs classes is Amsoil 4t. No additives.
We had several disqualifications during our post-race tech at the last event. We are checking several different things each week. DO NOT CHEAT. It’s not worth it.
