Potential confirmed for Pizzi, great progress for Nepveu

5Apr2018

The WSK Super Master Series moved to Naples one week ahead of the original schedule to replace the Lonato event canceled because of the snow. Although this event was not scheduled in the programme, Birel ART Racing took the opportunity to continue to develop the equipment and drivers. Good performances rewarded everyone's efforts, especially in OK-Junior with Francesco Pizzi's 7th place. The first steps in European competition for Thomas Nepveu were also more than encouraging with an incredible 15th position in the Final.

Coluccio close to the win on the grip of La Conca

23Mar2018

The La Conca circuit is known for the strong grip of its surface. This radical change has been negotiated by the Birel ART Racing Team, the chassis from Lissone adapting beautifully to these unusual circumstances. After pole position in OK and winner of his Prefinal, Coluccio was able to compete with the best during the whole meeting. A collision on the first round of the Final prevented him from completing his impressive demonstration.

Winter Cup, WSK... Podiums come one after the other for Energy Corse

21Mar2018

The 23rd edition of the Winter Cup at Lonato, like the WSK Super Master Series at La Conca, was another opportunity to demonstrate that the Energy Corse chassis and the team remain relentless international benchmarks. Very well represented in Lonato in the Finals in all categories, the Energy brand achieved a magnificent double in Mini Rok with the promising Italian Andrea Antonelli and Poland’s Karol Pasiewicz from the team Revolution Motorsport! And at the WSK in 60 Mini, Antonelli took another victory, while the Russian Kirill Kutskov, another member of the factory team, was on the third step of the podium!

WSK Super Master Series resumes from La Conca

11Mar2018

As spring is kicking in, teams and drivers have been busy in Muro Leccese (I) this weekend for the pre-race tests of WSK Super Master Series. This is in fact going to be the venue of the third round of the series next weekend. The La Conca World Circuit will stage the International series – that has started scoring very good participation figures, from March 15^th to 18 after the forced suspension of one week ago due to the exceptional snow fallen on the circuit of Lonato. The classification fights have therefore been postponed after the kick off to the season held at the circuit in Adria (I), and will resume next weekend with the second of the four rounds of the WSK Super Master Series: the replay of the race of Lonato will in fact take place on April 1st at the International Circuit Napoli in Sarno (Salerno, Italy). The weekend of Muro Leccese will therefore be the first chance to bounce back following the results of the opener that shaped up the initial classifications of the four categories on track: OK, OK Junior, KZ and 60 Mini

Classes and first round of invited drivers for Race of Stars

The Race of Stars is set to return in 2018 on October 11-13 with Australia’s, and many of the world's, best kart drivers converging at the Xtreme Karting facility on the Gold Coast, Queensland.

The invitational event will again be a part of the excitement in the lead up to the Vodafone Gold Coast 600 Supercar event and will showcase karting to the wider motorsport community and general public.

Being a ‘jewel in the crown’ for Australian karting, the concept of the Race of Stars sees highly credentialed drivers in the KZ2, DD2, TaG 125, KA3 Senior, KA2, KA3 Junior, KA4 Junior and Cadet 12 Classes suiting up.

Courtesy of their performances in various National and State Championship and Series’ across the Country, the drivers listed below are the first to receive an invite.

Only invited drivers are eligible to compete and these drivers can only compete in the Classes they have been invited in. It is important that the drivers in this first round of invitations confirm their intention to compete at their earliest convenience by completing the Registration Form here by Monday July 30. The invitation is not transferable to another driver.

Once the deadline for invited drivers has passed, should the track capacity not be reached by the invited drivers, requests will be distributed for interested drivers from both Australia and Overseas to fill the remaining places on the grid.

As has been the case in previous years, there is no pre-event testing at the venue allowed by any invited competitor after Monday July 30.

The Supplementary Regulations for this event will be available in the near future. Entries will open shortly after.
