The results from the 2018 Spring Fling #1 have been posted in News/Results. Click HERE to view.
I am excited to announce the 2018 KBAR/KBAT and Kansas State Championship Schedule. There are a couple of things you will all notice.
Thank you to the Promoters of these races, the board for all of their hard work getting this schedule together, and to ALL OF YOU WHO ARE VOLUNTEERING TO HELP put these races on.
Please remember that in order for your team to compete for the KBAT trophy, you must either put on a race, co-promote a race with another team, or provide significant support for a permitted race. The intent is offer inexperienced and smaller teams the opportunity to learn how to put on a race from an experienced promoter so your team can either promote or co-promote another race next season.
The official race and events calendar on this website are being updated, and will reflect these races soon.
