The Podium TKC Senior Sprint Championship is an arrive-and-drive two-stroke karting championship designed for drivers aged 15 and over, competing at some of Southern California’s top karting circuits. As an Official Sodi World Series (SWS) Championship, drivers can earn official SWS points throughout the season.
Designed for drivers of all experience levels, the championship features multiple classes to provide close, competitive racing for every competitor. By providing the karts and equipment, we make high-level karting more accessible, allowing drivers to experience professional kart racing without the cost of owning and maintaining their own kart.

Race day is built around fairness and equal opportunity. Every driver will start one race from the front, one from the middle, and one from the back, giving everyone the same average starting position.
Drivers will be randomly divided into groups of 14 for practice and each heat race. Points earned across the heats will then be used to rank the field and organize drivers into 28-kart finals.
