Next weekend, the global stage shifts to Valencia, Spain, where 246 drivers from 37 countries will battle for glory at the T4 Nations Cup 2025. Among them, Team USA arrives with a 22-driver roster across Mini, Junior, Senior, and Masters classes. With world champions, national title holders, and fearless rookies, this is the strongest American squad ever assembled for this international competition.

The T4 Series is the fastest-growing karting program in the United States — a pure spec-class category where the driver truly makes the difference. Designed to provide professional-level racing at an incredibly affordable cost, T4 has become the benchmark for grassroots karting worldwide, opening doors for new talent to rise while ensuring a level playing field.

In the Senior division, Noah Rosser, the 2023 T4 Nations Cup World Champion, returns as a leading favorite. He is joined by Ian Quinn, a proven SKUSA and STARS contender, Derek Wargo, a WKA National Champion, and Steven Miller, who is a SKUSA SuperNationals, Pro Tour and Winter Series champion with numerous wins in ROK Cup and other series. Adding international firepower, Jimmy Cabrera of the Dominican Republic brings years of ROK Cup and Florida Winter Tour experience.

In the Masters 168 category, Team USA has its eyes on history. The class has never been won by the USA, but this year’s trio — Gonzalo Aponte and Michael Maymi of Puerto Rico, along with Jeyson Herrera (Colombia), a front-running competitor with results at the T4 Nations Cup 2023, USA and Colombia — gives the squad one of its strongest chances yet to break through.

The Junior squad is loaded with rising stars. Ashton Pearson (2025 Florida Cup Champion) and Riley Parks (Florida Cup Vice Champion) headline a talented group that also includes Dante Rodriguez, Jet Hengstler, and Derek Wargo Jr. Together, they bring speed, consistency, and hunger to compete against the best young racers in the world.

The youngest category, T4 Mini, highlights America’s future in karting. Cohen Shoecraft (2025 Florida Cup Champion), Liam Bourghol (FL Cup Vice Champion), and Jeremiah Hengstler will make their mark in an international field, representing the next wave of American karting talent.
