SCDK - Imperial Dirt Karts 2026 Winter Co-Series Race 4!!
SCDK – Imperial Winter Co-Series Race 5
March 14, 2026 – Perris Flat Track
After a great event at Imperial Raceway with the Heritage Imperial Dirt Karts on February 28, the Winter Co-Series now heads north to SoCal Dirt Karters’ home track at Perris Raceway to wrap up the final two rounds of the series.
With several racers unable to attend every event, championship points remain wide open in many classes, making these final races critical for anyone chasing a Winter Series title.
Join us at Perris Flat Track on March 14 for Round 5. Whether you’re looking to gain valuable points in the Co-Series standings or shake down your kart ahead of the upcoming SCDK Championship season, this will be a great opportunity to get laps on the Perris dirt.
Come race with us and be part of the action!

Pre-tech Safety Form Available for Download
So Cal Dirt Karters is implementing a pre-race safety tech on all karts, starting this Saturday, 3/29. Once you get unloaded, roll your kart(s), along with safety equipment down through the grid area and our resident safety monitor, Gary Long will check for the basics.
Karts that don’t pass safety tech due to slight infractions will get a “fix it” ticket for our next race.
Egregious safety issues (no chain guards, lead weight held by zip-ties), will need to be an immediate fix.
You can refer to the checklist below for an idea of what will be looked over.
It’s important that everyone complies to safety measures in order to keep racers and fans safe so we can continue growing events at Perris Flat Track
ATTENTION RACERS!!!
Per the insurance restrictions at the Perris Raceway, all MOTORIZED vehicle riders in the pits MUST wear a helmet. This includes quad, motorcycle and mini-bike riders. This is a strict requirement of Perris Flat Track. Please do not violate this mandate and jeopardize our future at this facility.
Also, all long-hair racers need to secure their hair per the rule book in section 4.6.5:
" If hair extends appreciably from beneath helmet, the competitor must wear a balaclava to retain hair from extending outside helmet. No hair is allowed to be visible when the driver is “race ready”.
No exceptions!
