THE SERIES - Turn 3 | Super Heavyweight Championship 9/28 @ Low Country Kartway

Member
The Series is BACK from our summer hiatus and we're kicking off our return with the inaugural Super Heavyweight Championship! The $2000 to win Super Heavy Headliner will be flanked by great payouts across all of our divisions. Due to previous rainouts, this event will award double-points. Updated points standings will be posted Wednesday night (9/11). To ensure the longterm health and longevity of The Series, we've implemented kart minimums in limited classes. However, the majority of our purse is still guaranteed, and we continue to offer lower than average entry fees for an entirely above-average touring karting series!
