Derek Wargo Racing

Whether you're hitting the drag strip, the circle track, or the street, our compact, 10SI-case Lightning-Bolt™ Mini-Alternator delivers massive power, physics-defying weight savings, and head-turning style. Weighing in at only 7 lbs—nearly 40% lighter than a standard 10SI—and pumping out 80+ amps at idle with over 100 amps at the top end, this 12-volt, 1-wire powerhouse packs serious charging performance. An optional direct-fit 10SI adapter makes upgrading even easier.

USPKS P7 FINISH

10/08/2026

SUNDAY USPKS PRESS RELEASE:

🏁 FROM P34 TO THE TOP 10! 🏁
Talk about a masterclass in resilience!
Rookie Senior driver Derek Wargo put his McCrone Motorsports Formula K #978 kart into the P7 position today at the USPKS Ohio Grand Prix!
After qualifying P14, unexpected heat-race setbacks threw some massive hurdles our way, but the comeback was already in motion by the Super Heat:
🔹 Heat 1: P20
🔹 Heat 2: P34
💥 Super Heat: P15 (The turnaround!)
The Formula K Kart package was amazing with a few tweaks!
A huge thank you to the IPK TEAM for the tips✅
Giving up wasn't an option. Derek and the team dug deep, found the pace during Sunday's Super Heat, and executed a massive passing campaign in the Main Event to storm all the way forward into a P7 finish!
💥Huge shoutout to the entire McCrone Motorsports crew, the IPK Team, and all our partners for keeping the focus locked in. Rookie Senior year is just getting started! 🇺🇸

Final results are in for the FIA KARTING ACADEMY TROPHY 2026🇺🇸
We had a fast kart this weekend for the finale.
Qualifying P10 in group.
HEAT 1: Made our way up to P6 thru the race and on last lap another driver decided to send it and never was making it🙄

HEAT 2:
Wrecked in the first turn and up in the air we go🙄

HEAT 3:
Kart was terrible and we went backwards and established a good pace. Two in front wrecked and one was meatballed and never came off.
That unfortunately collected us and ended our day🙄

NOW TO ALL OF 🫵
We THANK YOU for all the support and watching as we represented our flag 🇺🇸
Unfortunately we didn’t deliver a top prize, BUT they knew the USA was there at all times🇺🇸
Thank you to all our sponsors as this was not possible without you🫵❤️❤️❤️

Derek will now travel on to Cincinnati with his McCrone Motorsports team to run the USPKS series next weekend.

THANK YOU AGAIN 🇺🇸❤️🇺🇸❤️
