WEEDSPORT, NY – Weedsport Kartway and Kart Pass have renewed their partnership for 2023 and will continue to streamline the sign-in process for teams and attendees at the pit gate this year, helping get participants into the pits quickly and efficiently, even at its largest events.

To use Kart Pass, download the app, create a profile, register and purchase passes for Weedsport Kartway events, signing all waivers electronically.  At the track, simply proceed to the Kart Pass Priority Line, show your mobile pit pass, and get an armband.

Utilizing Kart Pass is not mandatory for drivers and teams; however it will be the sole means for online pre-registration in 2023. Pre-Registration can also be handled over the phone, with a credit card, by calling (315) 834-3067.

Standard day of registration and pit passes will also be available as normal at the pit window, utilizing cash or cards.

Bulk registration is now available on Kart Pass. Those running more than one class will be able to select each class independently this year, eliminating the need for the large event bundles that were required in 2022.

Simply select each class you wish to participate in, for each day, and then checkout all classes at one time.

When utilizing Kart Pass, ID Verification is required in order to sign all waivers electronically.

Pre-Registration for Spring Meltdown Weekend will open at 10 a.m. on Thursday, March 30.
