Friday, 08 May 2009 08:10
The much-anticipated ProKart Challenge West Coast Shootout is just one week away, set for May 16 at the Buttonwillow Raceway Park kart track.

Drivers competing will receive points for their respective championships. however, any and all racers are invited to compete.

The event will see a total of 10 classes on track when combining the PKC South and PKC North divisions. S1, G1, S3, S4, TaG Senior, TaG Master and TaG Junior are part of both programs, with the KF2 and S4 Magnum racers coming from PKC South and the HPV 2 Juniors being a PKC North category. A look at the early entry list shows the event at the 7/10-mile circuit should be a good training ground for the upcoming SKUSA SuperNationals XIII later in the year, as most of the heavy hitters will be in attendance.

Neal Doubles Up for Third Straight Event at ProKart Challenge South
Wednesday, 29 April 2009 08:13
The fourth round of the Superkarts! USA’s ProKart Challenge South program took the competitors to the 1.1 mile temporary circuit outside the Qualcomm Stadium, home of the San Diego Chargers. Running in conjunction with the San Diego Karting Association (SDKA), the two organizations merged similar classes, including the nine PKC divisions, to share the course throughout the April 25 event in perfect San Diego beach weather. As in the previous two rounds of the series, 17-year-old Jacob Neal continued to be the star of the traveling show by scoring two feature wins on the day.

The event in San Diego seemed to be much easier for the young hotshoe, as he swept all on-track sessions for the S1 and S3 divisions back-to-back. In the stacked S3 category, Neal led the way in qualifying as the only driver to post a sub-one minute lap time. In the opening heat, Neal was chased by Jimmy McNeil until he retired on lap five, after a steering component broke while attempting to pass Neal. Point leader Patrick Cushenberry and defending champion Bobby Legate assumed the chase positions, but came up just short at the line. In the second heat, Neal got away from the line clean, while Cushenberry had a tough opening lap and fell back to sixth to allow Brad Dunford to slide into the second spot. Though Dunford gave a solid effort, he settled for second, as Neal was able to hold him off for the win. Legate ran third until lap seven when his engine seized. By then, McNeil and Cushenberry had advanced up to fourth and fifth, and then moved up one more spot with Legate’s retirement.  Read Full Story on EKN.
