<p style=”text-align: left;”>Of the single gear 125cc engines, the X30 is one of the more common. Being that the U.S. is so vast, it rather depends to what region you’re migrating. But yeah, KF/OK don’t really have a home here.</p>

They have and F4 program and are into X30’s as well. They have a close association with: http://ogdenusa.com/   as that is Jays dad.

I have met Jay and know guys that deal with MDD. I mainly deal with one of Jay employees Joe Hidalgo and I am happy with experience. I can say Jay does have a range of experience from karts on up to Indy Cars. Matter of fact Jay is slated to run in this years Indy 500. Jay is running the kart racing program here in NewOrleans @ Nola Motorsports Park. I do feel that it is safe to say many of us feel lucky to have Jay and Joe here as an asset.

I have not really talked about the amount of involvement or any of how they select drivers.

F4 is pretty new here. 1st year was last year.

My dealings with Joe have been very straight forward. I am somewhat new to karting and consider myself a rookie. Most of my dealings with Jay have been observing him dealing with others near me.

I am sure if you contact them they will tell you how things work.

Hey Mads,

California is actually a great spot for karting in the country right now. It is the heartland of SKUSA, which is currently our largest series and the closest thing we have to a true “national” championship, which is the SKUSA Pro Tour. It has 3 races across the country along with the SuperNationals in Las Vegas, Nevada, each year.

Also in California is the SKUSA California ProKart Challenge, which is SKUSA’s largest regional program. Most of the clubs run the same class structure and tire as SKUSA now and the regional series in California is on-par with the other series in the country (USPKS, WKA Manufacturers Cup) in terms of competition – the Top 10 in ProKart are Top 20 in Pro Tour. 25-30 kart fields.

All of the series I’ve listed are X30. IAME has a stronghold in the country, Rok is gaining some ground, and Rotax is losing some ground.

SKUSA is the biggest sanctioning body/touring series, but it does not nearly have the overall control. They have Texas and California at the moment, but there are quite a few IAME series in other regions of the country that run the exact same single-speed class specs. (X30 Senior, X30 Junior, Mini Swift, Micro Swift).
