Another huge prize pool is on offer at the 27th running of the annual SKUSA SuperNationals in Las Vegas.
There will be nearly US$45,000 in prizes handed out on “Super Sunday” in the car park of the Las Vegas Motor Speedway. This will be the third time the venue has hosted the race, which takes place on November 13-17.
“The 2024 edition is projected to be one of the largest in event history” SKUSA stated in a press release. Multiple classes are sold out and overall, the event has already surpassed the 500-entry barrier. Entry lists for each class (including the Aussies) will be posted closer to the event.
The awards package, which is still not finalised, already includes over $37,000 in cash and an additional $7,000 in prizes.
Superkarts! USA has put together a cash purse for five of the nine categories. Pro Shifter headlines the event with $15,000 across the top five and $10k to the winner! See below, the prize money structure:

In addition to the cash purses, the KA100 Senior and Master Shifter class winners will be awarded a custom B.R.M Chronographes timepiece. Frederic Gasser of B.R.M has been a longtime partner of Superkarts! USA and supporter of the SuperNationals event, dating back to 2010. Each timepiece is valued at $3,500.
Of the nine categories competing in this year’s SKUSA SuperNationals, four have been expanded to the 88-driver mark. The KA100 Senior and KA100 Junior classes were opened early in the registration process with the Senior division filled up at 88 drivers and nearing the ‘sold out’ status for the Junior category. The Pro Shifter and Pro X30 will be welcoming big fields once again in 2024, with each category expanded to welcome 88-driver fields. Mini Swift and Micro Swift have both been sold out, with waiting lists established for their 44-driver fields as have the KA100 Master and Master Shifter divisions, reaching the entry cap over the weekend.
The nine classes have been split into Morning and Afternoon groups in the tentative event schedule for SKUSA SuperNationals 27, published on the SKUSA website. KA100 Junior, KA100 Senior, Master Shifter, and Micro Swift make up the morning shift of classes while Mini Swift, X30 Junior, KA100 Master, X30 Senior, and Pro Shifter will be featured in the afternoon time slot each day.
