Rob Slick Racing

2025 ProKart Challenge karting season ended with pretty mediocre results compared to 2024. Frustrating and disappointing year with no wins, poles, or podiums, and basically ran off pace, mid pack all season. However, there is always something to laugh about, so not all bad:
1. Due to consistency and perseverance, I got enough points to finish second in the KA 100 Masters Championship
2. At the SuperNats karting national finals in Las Vegas, there was video of me in the ProKart Challenge ad for 2026 that they showed on the big screen 1000 times. Kind of an unflattering squidward-esque shot of me with my helmet and balaclava , but as PT Barnum said, "Any advertising, is good advertising" Ha Ha.

Been racing for a few years nows, and finally stepped up this year to have my helmet painted. I really like the subtle four leaf clovers in the matt black paint for good luck. Big thanks to Alex Alive of AliveDesigns for doing an amazing job, and hopefully it'll make me faster!

Missed a couple races so ended up fourth in the 2024 X-30 Masters Championship in the SKUSA ProKart Challenge. For the four races I entered, I got two wins and two seconds, so it was my best year of racing since I started in 2007. Thanks to HRT for the tuning, and P1 Engines for the power.

The video is the X-30 Masters races at K1 Circuit in the SKUSA ProKart Challenge series on Aug 24 & 25, 2024. Both races ended up with identical podiums, and uneventful 2nd place finishes for me. Ended the season with 2 wins and 2 seconds out of four races, so not a bad year.

Okay, can you spot the changes on the podium from Race1 on Saturday, to Race2 on Sunday? Trick question, there are none, because Tim won both days. Couldn't match the pace or consistency, so need to keep pushing. Looking forward to the next chance.

Another good race with SKUSA ProKart Challenge in X-30 Masters at Santa Maria Kart Track. Skipped a race in April, so not leading the Championship, but still having fun.

Not enough passing for you in the Monaco Grand Prix? Then check some kart racing in Buttonwillow, CA. Almost as glamorous...

I really like the look of the hardtop, but summer is here, so the roof is off. What d'ya think?
