The Premier Northwest Regional Series, the NW Gold Cup, is the oldest karting series in the Northwest. The NW Gold Cup Series dates back to the early 1960's when the regional karters decided they were tired of racing amongst their local club members and decided to put on a regional series to race against other clubs at different tracks. Back then, all the regional clubs raced for a single trophy known as the Gold Cup and it was awarded each year to the club with the most seasonal points. Over the last 50 years, all the top racers from Washington, Oregon, Idaho, and Brit- ish Columbia have come together to race each other. Many of the finest kart racers in North America have come from this northwest race series. This is evident from the numerous National titles the Pacific Northwest drivers have won over the years. The NW Gold Cup Sprint Series has added many great regional drivers onto the list of Who's Who of Kart Racing and long revered as the one of the best run series in the North America. The tradition of greatness continues today with current drivers like Odenthal, Rolison, Holmboe, Hodapp, Valiente, Wimsett, Arscott, Nekeel, Glover, Daniels and Choquer to name a few. The IKF Region 6, NW Gold Cup Sprint Series events are all IKF sanctioned and insured events run by a professional Race Director and Race Official team enforcing a consistent set of IKF sanctioned rules developed and approved by the northwest regional clubs. All race events have a professional race announcer for the spectators and racing families. This regional sprint race series is very professional with nine race events at eight different race facilities. No two race courses are the same and the different tracks have eliminated the home track advantages that can happen with other series. For the competitors, that means quality racing and quality officiating at many different tracks. The 2010 IKF Region 6, NW Gold Cup Series will once again be the home to one of the largest and most competitive Regional Series in the United States and Western Canada. Plan a northwest family vacation this summer and race with some of the best kart racers in the United States and Canada.
