The inaugural season of the RMC America’s Trophy is set to close over the June 5-7 weekend with a visit to the Motorsports Country Club of Cincinnati. The Batavia, Ohio facility will welcome Rotax racers from all across North America and spots from around the globe as the best three of four championship program hosts the final two rounds of racing. Four tickets to the 2026 Rotax Max Challenge Grand Finals this November in Portugal are on the line for the weekend in three categories with many other prizes to be awarded following the completion of the inaugural season for the RMC America’s Trophy.

Canadian Ayden Ingratta (REM / Kosmic) was able to sweep the opening two rounds of the Senior MAX category at the opening weekend held at the Musselman Honda Circuit in Tucson, Arizona this March. Ingratta holds a 110 point advantage over USA driver Pauly Massimino (BJR / LN Kart) heading into Cincinnati. Canadian William Bouthillier (REM / Kosmic) its third in the chase, back by 86 points with tickets to the top two finishers in the standings going to the RMC Grand Finals in Portugal. Ashton Woon (SCR / CS55) and Travis Pettit (RPG / Kosmic) split the wins in the Junior MAX category from Tucson and are separated by 46 points heading into the final two rounds, fighting for the RMC Grand Finals ticket to the champion. Canadian Leo Da Silva (REM / Kosmic) holds the third spot in the standings chase.

The gap between the top two in Mini MAX is 36 points with Round One winner Hudson Howard (JHDD / Kart Republic) leading second round winner Yousef Adi (JHDD / Kart Republic). Mason Brody (RPM / Nitro Kart) is third with one podium over the first two rounds in Tucson. The Micro MAX division welcomed two different winners as well during the Tucson weekend. Alessio Tosti (MPG / Kart Republic) won the Saturday main event while Tre Sanders (RPM / Nitro Kart) came away with the victory on Sunday. Tosti leads the championship standings by 48 points in the hunt for the US Trophy Final ticket. Tristan Francisco (RPM / Nitro Kart) is only 70 points out of the top spot in third. Former Team USA member Billy Cleavelin (Ruthless / LN Kart) swept the action in Tucson for Masters MAX with Chapman Ducote (Ruthless / Exprit) holding second in the standings with Ken Simonelic (CB / CompKart) in third.

The FZ Shifter platform made its debut on the big stage at the inaugural RMC America’s Trophy event in Tucson. The two categories for the program are conducting a two round championship run that will award the two champions with a ticket to the US Trophy Final event. 11 drivers were part of the FZ125 Senior category that saw Gage Korn (Maranello USA) sweep the action on the weekend for the round victory. He holds a 110 point lead over Theo Kekati (Factory Karts) with Ziming Wang (BBR / Falcon) holding third.
