USA International Raceway, joined by the Great Northern Rotax Series
is proud to announce the launch of the Regional ROTAX Summer Shoot-Out.
This scheduled event will take place over the weekend of July 19-20 at
the track in Shawano, WI.
As one of the last opportunities for racers bound for the ROTAX
Nationals to compete on the track before the traditional blackout, this
will be the final test of the course. For those of you who have never
raced at USAIR, the rolling terrain matched with the high performance
asphalt and wide banked turns, makes for an amazing road course. The
combination of the rollercoaster straightaway and the fall-away "S"
turns that provide weightless effects at the top and pull an additional
2 "Gs" at the bottom make mastering this unique race track a real
challenge.
July in Shawano is a beautiful time. The rich green landscape marked
by beautiful lakes give visitors a great sense of country. Located just
40 miles northwest of Green Bay, this area is a popular summertime
location for southern Wisconsin and northern Illinois residents.
The track will be available for practice sessions on Friday the 18th
for $35.00 per kart (including pit pass) with additional pit passes
available for $10.00 each. Competitors will be assigned a single pit
space per kart. Teams seeking dedicated space for tents and large
trailers will need to contact track management to determine
availability and location. Saturday's Shoot-Out pre-entry online fee
will be $85.00 per kart and will include a single two-day pit pass
($100.00 at track). Additional multi-day passes will be $20.00.
Pre-registration is available at http://www.kartreg.com/gnrs/index.html
The top three finalists in each class will receive trophies and the
winners will receive a set of MoJo tires to be used during the Grand
Nationals in September.
The Great Northern Rotax Series would like to invite all
participants in the ROTAX Max Challenge to participate in this
(non-points) gathering of ROTAX enthusiasts and fellow racers. GNRS was
formed by a group of racers who share a passion for racing, speed, and
competition, along with the level playing field the ROTAX Max Challenge
racing series has created.
For spectators, the track offers bleacher seating, deluxe food
service and a host of optional amusement activities including an
outdoor pool with lounge area, bumper boats, and recreational fun-kart
tracks for all ages. Miniature golf and an arcade are also present. The
track also offers a complete wooded paintball competition park directly
adjacent to the pits.
USAIR management has select hotel accommodations available and located within minutes of the track.
The Home of the 2008 Rotax Grand Nationals
USA International Raceway in Shawano, Wisconsin is very proud to be
selected as the official host of the 2008 ROTAX Grand Nationals.
According to Scott Paape, General Manager of USAIR, "Working in

management team, this year's event promises to be one of the most
challenging and feature-packed events in karting." Scott added, "the
schedule of events, the details incorporated into the plans and the
