Hello David & Rob,
This new feature which you are offering as a free service is fantastic and well appreciated. As a driver I've always wondered what the race call would sound like...now I know!!!
Thank you!!!

| Just a quick question for Rodney Berryhill, of the famous Norman, Oaklahoma facility--Were you host to all the European Intrepid drivers prior to the Super Nats event? Who? Bet you had a blast! |

| Check out Speedtv.com--go to auto racing, then indy car. Robin Miller wrote a very nice article on the super nats with a great photo of Michael Schmacher with Indy 500 winner, Buddy Rice--a West coast Tony dealer. Robin did a great job capturing the Super Nats atmosphere--good read! |

I have not posted on EKN for many years (in fact, I had to get the code from Howden), but this seems like the perfect time. I want to publicly thank Mr. Robazzi and Johnny Mislijevic, as well as Eduardo and Andre Martins for making this happen. We worked on this for many months and it was amazing to see it come to fruition. Most of all, I'd like to offer a big thanks to Michael Schumacher for making the event extra special this year. Michael went above and beyond in making himself available to the SKUSA community. I now have even more respect for him.
I'd also like to take this time to thank every competitor who attended the SuperNationals this year. You are our customers and will always be #1 on our priority list.

I have raced at every supernats. It's amazing to me to see what it has turned into. To be a kart racer and compete at the supernats is as good as it gets. Thank you Tom and Patti for making karting cool and for an event that side steps the usual b.s. so typical in other series. You guys have filled some big shoes and then went so far beyond expectations. Even after having a bad weekend racing, I'm proud to have been there and proud to be a kart racer. Thanks again SKUSA

WOW! This race was the most amazing I have ever attended! No, it's not because Intrepid dominated, but because I have never seen a safer more wel- run event on a temp track. Things were flawless, the super pro event was the most amazing. 10 drivers or more were doing donuts after the finish, everyone was excited " yes especially me " I've been waiting 12 years to win this event and to get 1-2-3 was amazing thanks to the factory team and tec-sav.
Thanks Tom Patty and staff for an awesome week, it will for sure go down in history as the best event ever to date !!!!

With Skusa not having an ICC class anymore, looks like 2009 was the year to go watch the super nats.
Can you image next year when the over seas drivers find out they have to use a stock moto if they want to come and race. 
I guess Schumaker can run g1  |

I have a feeling that the SuperNats will still have an ICC-powered SuperPro class in 2010. The race has become a top international event, with huge global media coverage and lots of prestige. I'd expect to see North America's best still jumping into rental rides to run against Kozlinski, Lammers, Thonon and Ardigo. If Michael returns with any of his fellow Pros, SuperPro will remain one of headline events.

I just checked the '09-'10 SKUSA Rulebook. http://www.superkartsusa.com/dmdocuments/2009-2010-SKUSA-RuleBook.pdf
Seems S1 & S2 are still Moto\ICC, so the motors will still be running....S3 is Stock Honda.

See the press release on the home page, S1 and S2 will be Expert and Amatuer Stock Moto respectively in '10.
I would agree with Rob that the SuperNats will still have an ICC powered SuperPro class. |

Yea I checked the skusa wesite a few times earlier today and I seems I was seeing a cached pages rather than the one with the press release :/
Looks like I'm hosed as far as SKUSA goes. I dont have a moto and I'm not 30 yet.  Unless the rule is that you turn 30 on said year.
Actually come to think of it, the press release mentions PKC only and doesnt say explicitly that its pertains to teh entire year. Is it possible SKUSA will add ICC\KZ2 for the main season?
