Launching last year, ROK Cup USA’s regional series ROK the Rockies has set their 2019 schedule. With all six races to be run at Southern Colorado’s karting facility, SBR Motorsports Park, the Rockies will continue to ROK with the proven Vortex/Bridgestone platform.
“In all honesty, last year was a tough start for this new Colorado regional series,” explains ROK Cup USA’s Director of Operations Garett Potter. “We made some adjustments during the year that hurt us a little but Colorado remains a great market, and with the renewed support of the local karting community and some changes in store for 2019, we look forward to pushing hard in the area and grow the ROK brand.”
Hosting multiple rounds of the ROK the Rockies series in 2018, SBR Motorsports Park, located 15 minutes east of Colorado Springs, will become the home for the series in 2019. Offering unique terrain, elevation changes and a technical layout, SBR became the home mid-season as an ideal location just 1.5 hours from Denver, making for a permanent base for Colorado region ROKKERS.
