Thanks for coming out to OVKA Race #2! Our General Membership Board Meeting for the month of May is TUESDAY, May 2nd, online at the link on our Board Meeting page. The agenda for the meeting can be found here.

While the forecast for Sunday continues to improve, we've had some questions about our weather policies, should they be needed during the season. Our Wet Weather policies & procedures are listed in Appendix D of the 2023 Rulebook, available at https://ovka.com/rules/

OVKA uses Hoosier Racing Tires for all of our classes, and requires the Hoosier WET compound rain tires for all points-scoring participants. If you are still in need of some you can contact our resident Hoosier Tire dealers Pat Slattery or Doug Cook who may still have some available for purchase at the track.

Thank you to everyone who came out to learn at Karting 101 and compete in Points Race #1. OVKA Points Race #2 is this coming Sunday, April 30th. Visit our SERIES INFORMATION page (https://ovka.com/series-information/) for rules, format, and all relevant competition info. Come out and join us for another great weekend of racing!

The 2023 OVKA Season kicks off one week from today with our Karting 101 driving school on Saturday April 22 and OVKA Points Race #1 on Sunday April 23.

OVKA Racers, 

On the Board meeting on Tuesday a rule change on tires was voted in.  Previously ALL 2 stroke classes were going to run the Hoosier R70's, a rule voted in during the December Board Meeting.  This rule has been updated and will have only the 100cc Masters class running the R70's, all other 2 Stroke classes will remain on the R60-B's. 

We expect the complete rulebook to be finalized and published very soon.  If you have questions, please reach out to me.

Thanks,

Aaron - OVKA President
