Running under WKA motor and safety rules, the fleet Champ Karts have been

Sat., Jan. 22, starting at 12:30 p.m.

The Champ Kart field will be limited to the first 30 entries received.

Two-thirds of the entry fees collected will go toward the division¹s purse,

and other special prizes will be offered to competitors.

Entrants will have no club to join, but all drivers must be at least 15

years old to compete under New Jersey State guidelines.

All cars and drivers will be required to meet New Jersey State rules as well

as the WKA motor and safety mandates. A minimum weight of 400 pounds with
