October 17, 2018 - Showing speed and garnering results in the cadet, two-cycle and shifterkart markets, VemmeKart USA continues to expand their North American program. Testing and developing a product to compete with the LO206 engine platform, VemmeKart USA scored their biggest four-cycle victory to date as Eric Fagan dominated the reopening of Whiteland Raceway Park. Claiming the LO206 Senior victory and a $1,000.00 payday, Fagan put VemmeKart USA on the top step of the podium.

"It was a great weekend for our brand," explained Andy Gernand, Importer for the VemmeKart product line. "We have proven success in the cadet, 100cc and 125cc markets throughout the 2017 and 2018 seasons and now have made a big splash in the LO206 community. Eric helped us achieve our goal of a victory this past weekend but we have been up front in local New Castle Motorsports Park competition as we work to develop the overall LO206 package."

Claiming the pole position and fastest lap of the event en route to a dominating victory, Fagan bagged $1,000.00 for his efforts and brought VemmeKart USA to the forefront of the LO206 karting market.

Gernand continued, "There has been a lot of hard work from all involved. A huge thanks to VemmeKart's Vince Mandarino for believing in us as well as our growing group of drivers and tuners. I have made the commitment to make karting a full-time effort with my family behind me 100%. We celebrated the victory following the event, but it was right back to work Monday morning to prepare for Las Vegas."

With multiple confirmed drivers for the annual Superkarts! USA (SKUSA) SuperNationals, VemmeKart USA will enter the Super Bowl of karting with a strong team of drivers. With a few arrive and drive opportunities still remaining, interested parties are urged to contact VemmeKart USA as soon as possible.

"We have affordable arrive and drive programs available in all classes and can include anything from a chassis only, to a complete package that includes chassis, engine and mechanic," stated Gernand. "We will also offer tent and transport services out to Vegas should any drivers from the Midwest be in need."

Drivers looking to compete in Las Vegas are urged to get registered and contact VemmeKart USA immediately, via email to [email protected]. Stay tuned for VemmeKart's pre-event media release and the announcement of all of team drivers.
