Formula Karting Championship to offer ROK The RIO tickets, cash for 100cc categories
The Southern California based series will also host a single category with a merger between VLR100cc and KA100cc powered engines.
ROK CUP USA sent shockwaves to the sport of karting in North America by announcing the merger of VLR and KA100cc powered engines in a single competition category in the upcoming ROK the RIO in Las Vegas. With such announcement, top factory teams and premier karting shops are set to head to the Rio All-Suites Hotel and Casino at end of October to compete for the ultimate glory of this VLR - KA100cc category that will be further designated as Senior and Masters classes.
Formula Karting Championship (FKC) is immediately reacting to the latest announcement by introducing an exclusive event  ‘The Road To ROK The RIO'  in its upcoming sixth championship round at the Willow Kart Track on September 22nd. Sponsored by LeCont  world premier kart tire manufacturer  the Southern California based series will also host a single category with a merger between VLR100cc and KA100cc powered engines.
