MOORESVILLE, N.C. – In order to help as many racers from across the United States, Canada and Mexico make the Grand Nationals, Briggs & Stratton has worked with Cup Karts of North America to develop its first travel assistance program.

One of the things that many racers say prevents them from coming to an event are the travel costs. For racers traveling 500 miles or more, many times their fuel bill is their largest single expense for the weekend.

“A gas card program allows us to offset some of the cost for our Briggs racers who will be coming great distances to compete in one of the best 206 series at one of the best facilities in the country,” said Dave Klaus, director of Briggs & Stratton Motorsports.

Grand Nationals 3, scheduled for Oct. 4-6 at New Castle (Ind.) Motorsports Park, is not only going to be the largest 4-cycle sprint race for karts this season, but it will also feature the best competitors from all of North America at the same track for the first time.

To help us make this the biggest 4-cycle event in a very long time, Briggs has dedicated $8,000 to fund this gas card promotion! Only pre-registered drivers will qualify for a gas card.
