The 2026 iDrive regular weekly season is now in the rear view mirror!

We only offer the opportunity at the “Backwards“ track configuration twice a year and last evening 46 racers took the green flag to cap off the Fall Series. Mid 70° temps made for a great night of racing.

10 races resulted in 10 different winners!
It was nice to see some old Kartplex alumni on the top step again. Past scholarship champs Micah Floretta, James Mann, Austin Russell, and Sean Scoles all recorded wins.

Up next, the Championship Shootout next Wednesday, October 14. 🏁
