We had a great turnout for our last MATC race of the season. We would like to take a moment and, Thank all the Karting Family`s that came to this and all the MATC Event`s.
We also want to Thank all of our Sponsors this year. Landmarx for the Great looking T- Shirts. TPR for the Nintendo Wii system, Margay Racing - Thank You Kieth. Also TNT Yamaha, Microtel Hotels. We had a great time this year with all the familys that come out and support the series. We had a prize table this year that had some great stuff on it. Thank you again for supporting the series.


In the Kid Kart class we had a first for the series. Tate Stienmann completed all 6 races and ended the year with a PERFECT SCORE. Great Job Tate something to be proud of. Thank your Pit Crew as well for doing an outstanding job. Here is how the class finished the last race of the season.

1. Tate Stienmann

2. Jimmy Tapocik
3. Zachary Lynn
4. Bryan Heiple
5. Jacob Skaggs

Clone Rookie class we had some great racing. These young drivers are developing there talents and we will see next year just how much they have learned, as some will advance to the Jr ranks. Here is the finishing order.

1. Zach Buecker
2. Riley Worthy
3. Sam Raineri
4. Nick Lueck
5. Aidan Kleewein
6. Caden Wokurka

Yamaha Rookie class The brother and sister team of Riley and Avery Scott would pull off a 1 - 2 finish for the last race of the season. But watch out next year as a new comer from the kid kart class that tried his hand at the yamaha class would prove to be a strong competitor. Gage Winters has proven he's got the skills needed to be a top contender for next year, by mixing it up with both Avery and Riley Scott in the Prefinal. Gage had some chances to even take the lead. Watch this class next year as it is going to have some hot shoes.
Finishing order as follows.

1. Avery Scott
2. Riley Scott
3. Gage Winters
4. Cameron Christ


Clone Jr class we had a battle for the championship as both the 2 front runners were tied in the series. Alanmykael Polley would prove he had the set up by taking Top Qualifier. Jared Wiemelt would be right there just a few tenths back. In the Prefinal Alanmykael and Jared would take spots 1 and 2 and never look back as the two of them would pull away from the pack. In lap 7 of 10 Jared tried to get in a corner under Alanmykael to make the pass. But Jared would break loose and spin allowing Alanmykael to pull away. In the final both front runners would be 1 and 2 going into the first turn. But a hit from behind would spin the leader around leaving the lead for Jared. But Jared would loose the lead after an over correction in one of the turns. Matt Pyatt would take the lead and hold it. While Alanmykael would come from the back working his way through traffic to catch Jared for the final lap. At the final stretch the two would be side by side with Jared winning by just 70 -100`s of a second at the line. Alanmykael almost pulled off a come from behind win. But Jared drove hard and held off a challenger he knew was not to be taken lightly. Great Job by both of you. Here is the finishing order. 

1. Matt Pyatt
2. Jared Wiemelt
3. Alanmykael Polley
4. Cassidy Allison
5. Garrett Wheeler
6. Mariah Freeman
7. Logan Manson

Tag Sr we would have a Great race between father and son. Brad would beat his dad / Joe for the last race of the year. Great job you two and it was fun to watch you to race. We wonder though what the dinner table converstions are like. I guess we will never know !!!. Here is the finishing order.

1. Brad Winkelmann
2. David Piel
3. Joe Winkelmann


Final Class out Clone Sr this was our biggest class of the year. We had a great race for the last MATC event for the year. Points leader Kenny Williams would have his hands full with the driver of the number 90 kart of Nick Todtenhaupt. Nick would prove he had the engine and the set up as he would walk away each lap from the pack. But Nicks win would not put a damper on Kenny Williams big picture,The Championship!!!. Kenny would win the Championship and Crown him a 3X Track Challenge Champion. Great Job Kenny!! Here is how the finishing order went.

1. Nick Todtenhaupt
2. Ken Williams
3. Jeff Scott
4. Tom Luczkowski
5. Tim Strawkas
6. Darren Schnelle
7. Al Burkett

This is it the last race of the season. For some of the karters this is there last chance to clinch a big win and the right to be name Challenge Champion. Race # 6 will be at Pevely Mo. But there is a twist to the madness. You will run the track in reverse !!!! so now you understand why its called Track challenge. Check the format tab to your left for details and other information.

We will be holding the year end awards at the track. Also if you have made 5 out of the 6 events you will be eligible for a drawing to win some cool stuff from the prize table. This is something new we are trying this year. Also one lucky kid karter who has made the 5 out of the 6 events will be drawing for a brand new Nintendo Wii from our sponser at TPR. Good luck to all and lets have some fun at our last event of the year.

Well as most of you remember , the last Springfield MATC event was stopped short by mother nature. But this time we got to finish this one. First off !!! MATC would like to Thank Mid State Kart Club for a Great time. We had allot of great racing by all classes. Some first time winners and repeat winners who are on the hunt for yet another MATC Championship. If any of you have not heard why its called MATC or Mid America Track Challenge. The last part there Track Challenge. The meaning about this is that you the driver are being challenged by the local tracks,be it either backwards or fowards. Your are also being challenged by elemets the the local drivers who know there track better then most. So when you the driver come out with a victory!!!. You can stand on that podium and say I BEAT YOUR CHALLENGE. So once again Thank you Mid State for giving us the track backwards and challenging all the drivers and testing there limits. Great Job !!!


Points are up and Our next event will be Sept the 15th & 16th at TNT Kartways. Camping is free, sorry there are no plugins.





Aug the 25th will be race # 4 of the MATC. The hosting track will be Mid State Kart Club located in Springfield IL. Please check the format tab to your left for start times and fees.





What a fantastic weekend at the TNT Kartways track in West Quincy, Mo. We had a great turnout and with the temps in the low 80`s to mid 90`s we new some track records were going to get smashed. We saw some of the best racing this season. In a few of the classes the competition was so close that only a few thousands seperated the front runners. We have the points from SLKA and TNT and have been posted. Sorry for the delays on those getting posted.

HOT !!!!
There was some confussion on the races as to a drop or no drop. After further review, You do have 1 drop and you must make at least 5 out of the 6 races for year end awards.

MATC Staff !!!

Clones FYI information !!!!! We will be keeping an eye on Flywheels. We know they are allowing the 6619,18 and Raceseng flywheels. But what has not be approved by AKRA yet is ARC`s 6627 or 6602 Flywheels. Just a friendly tip for you Clone guys. Also please make sure you are running 5 in Diameter wheels. As per the class structure page. Also we did notice some Pipe`s that are not allowed in the class. One was a J pipe, those I believe are 3 stage headers. Clone class must use single stage only. FYI some things we will be paying attention to.



Clone Classes please check class structure page for updated information.

Thank you .


Mid States Rulling on Flywheel. I spoke with Russ Kemple and he assured us that the MATC would not have an issue with the new flywheel that midstate has impossed. So if you have a steel, 6619 , Raseng or Stock flywheel you will still be able to run at Midstate for the MATC. But please keep in mind that 2013, No one will be allowed to run the stock flywheel.


HOT HOT HOT !!!
