Photo by Neil Eric Miller KARTER NEWS - April 2009 9 When Regional and Local Series Work Together Everyone Wins By Mike Schorn I was recently looking at the karting forums and I came across the following opinion: “Biggest thing that is killing the regional program are promoters unwilling to stand behind a series format.” I say that in general as I know that there are few that would support it. It comes down to money. Many promoters do not want to give up their entries when the series goes to another track for a series race. I felt this was a common issue and all kart regions struggle with the same or similar issues. I have experience in several different regions and feel that most regional programs could be improved by taking a different approach to the common issues. In the Pacific Northwest, the IKF Region 6/ NW Gold Cup/Rotax Max Series Annual Awards Banquet weekend has also been holding a two day karting conference for the last 25 to 30 years to help resolve or eliminate some of the common regional karting issues. NW Gold Cup Member Clubs and Promoters have listened to their racers or customers and are trying to meet the needs of all the local and regional racers by having strong local and regional series. Most local race series are based on the current Regional Series Competition Rules and the local series typically includes the local regional race as part of their local championship. This collaborative and cooperative approach has increased participation in the regional series and provides the local racer with the opportunity to test their skills against the region’s best drivers without the added expense of traveling to other race tracks. This common mind set has lead to a combined regional series that has IKF, Rotax Max and SKUSA racers 10 all racing for the single regional championship in Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Montana, and Canada. This has resulted in increased regional entry numbers that are equal or better than has been seen in the past ten years. Event scheduling is the most important issue that is resolved by the karting conference each year so that a racer does not have to choose one race track or series over another. All NW Gold Cup Member Clubs are allowed one NW Gold Cup Sprint Event and are not allowed to schedule a club or local race on the same weekend any NW Gold Cup Sprint or Road Race Event. Four years ago the NW Gold Cup Clubs agreed to listen with an open mind to combining Rotax Max and SKUSA series into the existing IKF race weekends. Many were very apprehensive (including myself) of the whole venture, but we all agreed to at least listen with an open mind. The result of this meeting is that now the Northwest kart racer has one larger regional series that consists of IKF, Rotax Max and SKUSA race classes with a different track for each event. There are one day classes and two day classes, 2-cycle and 4-cycle classes. Participation records are kept for Rotax Max and SKUSA national races. The region has a traveling race crew under contract that provides a race director, tech crew, registration crew, grid crew and chief flag person. The changes have provided the regional racer with one single regional championship with fair and consistent race administration for the whole season at a different race track each event. We are now in the fourth year of this change and I am happy to say that there has been growth each year since the changes. Racers from our region regularly compete on a national and international level with excellent results. It all starts with our local clubs promoting a successful regional program by working together to bring out the best racing for the racer. The IKF Policies and Procedures are generated as a guide or aide for IKF Governors, Regional Coordinators, Member Clubs and Race Promoters. This guide is to help in establishing, planning and implementing a successful regional series that has a consistent, fair and level playing field for all the karters, promoters and clubs. Regional leaders and planners need to see beyond the immediate short term gains or concerns and look on a broader scope to see what is good for all of our racers or the growth of clubs, race promoters and kart dealers. As we continue to work to grow the regional programs, our local programs will also grow and prosper. 2009 will be a challenge in several ways, mostly economically, but I have hope that we as karters, clubs, promoters and dealers in a collaborative and cooperation approach rise to the occasion and keep your region alive and well this year and in years to come. So the question is to our fellow karters, promoters and clubs out there: “Are you willing to be open to changes or open to ideas of change that will improve your sport, club, region, or organization?” For additional information on 2009 IKF Region 6/NW Gold Cup Sprint Kart Racing Series events, please click on the following link: www.nwgoldcup.com KARTER NEWS - April 2009 Celebrating 30 Years of Servicing the Racing Industry with... • Proven performance products from the most trusted names in the industry! • Extensive inventory of parts to get you back on the track fast!

The biggest challenge of the evening seemed to be just keeping them in their seats through the awards presentation before they descended on the arcade like ants at a picnic. Their enthusiasm is understandable however considering that each club participant and their siblings all received a $20 game card along with their buffet style dinner. even with the huge arcade just outside the door calling them by name, they were all very attentive as the evening kicked off with a 20 minute ““season highlights” slide show put to some great music. The show featured everything from on-track racing shots to podium awards presentations and candid photos that brought nonstop oohs, aahs and chuckles from the packed house. f following the slideshow, dinner and cJkcikf decorated cakes for dessert; the evening got down to business with a short ""state of the club" address by cJkc president scott h hannum followed by the many club patron awards presented by cJkc vp and ikf r regional Track coordinator Jay Jacobellis. next, the club welcomed the evening's guest speaker; 1996 indy 500 winner and 2000 irl series champion buddy lazier. b buddy took to the microphone telling stories about his path to indy victory, a few 13 funny bumps along the way and many encouraging words for those young drivers dreaming of motorsports stardom. buddy even brought his solid silver mini borgwarner trophy and his winner's diamond ring and literally passed them around the room from table to table giving everybody a chance to hold what few people have ever seen let alone touched with their own hands. we can't thank buddy enough for taking the time to spend the evening with us and giving all the kids, (mostly the dads) such a rare treat! now all eyes focused on center stage where a large black and white checkered table was covered with year end awards and flanked on each side by this year's class champion karts. as each participant was announced, a short personalized season review was read while action photos and candids were displayed on the huge 10' x 10' big screen behind the stage. each driver was also given an opportunity speak to the crowd giving may thanks to sponsors and their parents for all the support.

Rotax, Leopard classes added; junior class dropped from race lineup. ROCK ISLAND, Ill. – Organizers of the Rock Island Grand Prix, the world’s largest karting street race, have announced significant changes to the class lineup at this year’s event, Sept. 5-6, 2009. Presenting sponsors of the event are AT&T and Mazda. Other major sponsors include Kart Expo International and Jumer’s Casino & Hotel, Rock Island. This year’s ninth running of the Superkarts! USA King of the Streets race will feature the Spec Honda power plant and follow SKUSA rules. Touch and Go (TAG) class offerings have also been expanded and there will be no junior class in 2009. “The decision to switch to stock moto (also termed Spec Honda) was made jointly by the Rock Island Grand Prix and Superkarts! USA. We believe that the change will rejuvenate the King of the Streets event which has historically been one of the most coveted titles in karting,” said Roger Ruthhart, president of the Rock Island Grand Prix. “We will still offer a venue to race ICC and tuned motos, which have been the engines that powered the King of the Streets race in the past. But we believe at this point in time that the new Spec Honda format will provide bigger fields with closer and more exciting racing for the thousands of spectators that come to the Rock Island Grand Prix.” King of the Streets will run at a weight of 395 pounds in an effort to attract both lighter and heavier drivers to the race, Ruthhart said. If registrations exceed 40 entries, the class could be divided and weights adjusted. This year’s winner will receive a $2,000 check, entries to the Superkarts! USA SuperNationals and the Florida Winter Tour January 2010 opening round, and a special Kart Raiser Electric Kart.
