IAME USA West

IMPORTANT UPDATES to X30 Platform To Take Effect before SKUSA ProTour event at NOLA. Full story and details below: http://iameusawest.com/news.htmlofficial-statement-from-ia/

We are proud to confirm that, effective immediately, that Salvador Bortoni will have the sole exclusive for #IAME #karting engines to all of #Mexico based on his continued support, loyalty, and unwavering devotion to the IAME product. Please contact them for any parts and engines you may need in that area.

Early peek at the changes to the IAME engine structure in store for 2021. https://www.superkartsusa.com//3083-official-statement-fro

One of the biggest myths we hear about the #IAME175SSE is that there are special engines that certain favored drivers apparently get. Of course in reality, nothing could be further from the truth. But we get racers love making excuses for why they aren’t winning. Parity is one of the cornerstones of the #IAME #karting platform, and something we’ve worked incredibility hard to further with the 175SSE. As many likely know, SuperKarts! USA has a rule where any competitor is ...free to claim another competitor’s engine. It prevents the fabled ‘suitcase engines’ commonly found in other classes or formats. Did you know - ProShifter driver Billy Musgrave won #skusasupernats #supernats23 on a *rented* generic engine? He gave his ‘factory tuned’ engine to a different customer. Furthermore, even his generic shifter engine was claimed midway through the event. It left him to contest the final races on a random rental engine he had very little time to dial in. The 175SSE is not perfect, and to reiterate: we’re not suggesting it is. We will continue to fine tune and innovate. We are committed to serving the karting community and value the input and feedback. We feel we have an affordable, reliable, and competitive shifter kart engine. We look forward to the second season of racing it. Consider the cost to lease a race winning 175SSE shifter engine capable of winning. Compare it to the costs to lease a race winning KZ in Las Vegas. (*If you can even get your hands on one.) We understand why some hate the 175SSE format. It’s bad for their bottom line.

We recognize #karting can be a lot like a hair salon. People love to #gossip or spread misinformation. Consider the sources. Disgruntled racers who have been reprimanded or suspended from competition for conduct aren’t always the best for an unbiased opinion. Just sayin’ Is the #iame175sse perfect? No. But is any #racing engine *truly* ever all things to all people? We stand behind the vision of the platform and are tremendously committed to improving on an already successful... product. The impetus for the concept was always rooted in longevity, parity, and reliability. We even have to remind ourselves sometimes, it was only the first year. We are excited to kick off year 2, beginning with the #skusawinterseries at AMR Homestead-Miami Motorplex presented by MG Tires in a couple short weeks. The good folks over at KartSport North America will be offering a special lease price for the week at just $1500. Draw your own conclusions, but consider this as one example: Aluminos driver #matthamilton had a whopping 25+ hours on his bottom end, and over 8+ hours on the top end. He stormed to a #supernats23 victory against ‘completely fresh’ 175 engines.

Congrats to Race Liberante on laying the smack down at the #RIGP #rockislandgrandprix in both the open and #kingofthestreets races this past weekend. The Compkart #karting driver is coming off a stellar #skusaprotour season in the #175SSE class and looks to be a threat with the #skusasupernats just around the corner.

We had a stellar weekend in New Castle Motorsports Park for the #skusaprotour finale. The 175 SSE had no less than 40 shifters, and we're definitely encouraged by the feedback. The X30 classes were also tremendously close with Ryan Norberg, Matt Johnson, Kai Sorensen, and Freddie Slater taking the championships respectively.

Carne Asada, Carintas, or Chicken. Which is better? Ready, go!

The 2019 SuperKarts! USA #skusaprotour championhip will be decided at New Castle Motorsports Park in August. We took some footage and cut together this small little promotional video to set the stage for the event. Always fun having a pool of content to pull from, and it's fun trying to reimagine the footage Wyatt Lloyd Media shot from last year and put it in a different context.

Honored to have Jake French back in the saddle after a small hiatus. He has partnered with Croc Promotion USA to pilot the new 175SSE and will be on hand at the #skusaprotour for the annual SpringNationals.

The #skusaprotour is well underway and #IAME platforms continue to provide some exciting and thrilling racing. We're already gearing up for the #skusapringnats at Utah Motorsports Campus in just a few short weeks.

We thank those who braved the lousy and terribly windy conditions yesterday for the IAME open demo day. Admittedly the numbers were small, but we did play host to some of the fastest #shifterkart drivers in the country. It proves once again, those who win are the ones who put in the work good weather or bad. The new CalSpeed Karting paint job looks legit and we’re excited to play host to IAME equipped racers at the first round of the #skusaprotour
