Membership
What is a TSRS Membership? A TSRS Membership is required to participate in any TSRS event. It holds your number and lets us verify age and driver eligibility.
Where do I find membership plans, prices and renewal dates? Membership plans, renewal dates and number rules are on the Membership page. All prices are on the Pricing page.
Pricing
Where do I find prices? Every price is on the Pricing page: race entries, second classes, memberships, wristbands, hard cards, practice and transponder rentals. Membership plans are on the Membership page.
Registration
Where do I register? All registration, pit requests, memberships and membership plans are at raceselect.com/tsrs/2027. If you log in and don’t see the event, go back to the landing page with /tsrs at the end.
When does registration open for each event? Opening dates and times are posted on each event’s own page and announced on Discord. Find each event’s page from the Event Information page.
Where can I find the schedule, track map and hotel info? On each event’s own page, which you can reach from the Event Information page. Race Director’s Notes with event-specific details are posted on Discord before each event.
Is there a drivers’ meeting? No. Race Director’s Notes are published on Discord instead, and officials are on grid before qualifying to answer questions.
Practice
Who can practice at a TSRS event? Only drivers registered for that TSRS event. If you aren’t entered in the race, you can’t run in event practice.
Can I practice at the track before the event? No. The track is closed to everyone before the TSRS event, whether you’re entered or not. Plan your testing for an earlier weekend.
How do I sign up for practice? Practice details and how to sign up are posted on each event’s own page. Practice may be booked through TSRS or through the track, depending on the event.
Do I need a transponder for practice? Transponders are required for all on-track sessions starting Saturday. Rentals are available during registration or check-in.
Do I need number panels for practice? Yes. Black numbers on yellow backgrounds on all 4 sides of the kart are required for all on-track sessions run by TSRS.
Tires and Fuel
Do I have to buy tires from TSRS? Yes. Slick race tires are a mandatory purchase through TSRS for every event and must be used as your race tires. They’re added to your cart at current market price when you register.
When do I pick up tires? At the tire desk at the track. Tires are scanned in before qualifying and can’t be changed after scanning without tech approval. The tire and fuel desk closes 30 minutes before the first qualifying session.
When are practice and rain tire orders due? Practice tire orders are due at the same time as rain tire orders. The deadline is listed on each event’s own page. After that deadline, only race tires are available with your entry. Wets are scanned only after being used in an official track session.
What if I miss the practice or rain tire deadline? Many teams sell rain and practice tires. We hope you’ll support them in a pinch. Once we’re onsite we may add some practice tire availability, but it’s never guaranteed.
Can I preorder fuel? Yes. Tire and fuel preorders are listed at the tire desk. Supply at the track is limited for anything not preordered.
What do I do with used tires and fuel cans? Fuel cans can’t be left at any track. We’ll let you know where used tires can be left.
Wristbands, Hard Cards and Waivers
Do drivers need a wristband or hard card? Your driver wristband is included with every entry, so drivers no longer need a hard card.
What about crew and family? Crew and family can buy an annual hard card or an event wristband. Prices are on the Pricing page. Hard cards can only be bought through Round 2 and are picked up at the first and second events only. Hard cards and event wristbands are valid on TSRS-run days only, not for track-run practice. A waiver must be completed to create a hard card, using the eWaiver link.
Does an event wristband cover Friday? An event wristband covers Saturday and Sunday at every event. At events where TSRS hosts practice, you can add Friday to your wristband for a small add-on fee. At events where the track hosts practice, the track collects its own fee for Friday only, and it may be different at each track. Hard card holders get Friday at no extra charge at events where TSRS hosts practice. Each event’s own page lists what applies.
Where do I pick up wristbands? Check in with parking before setting up, then go to registration when you arrive to get the wristband that confirms your e-waiver is complete.
Do I need to sign a waiver? Yes. All drivers must have an e-waiver on file. Your personal waiver link is emailed with your membership receipt or sent separately, so check your email first. If you did not receive it, use the eWaiver link (also listed on the Rules and Documents page) so you don’t need to contact us. Complete it before you arrive and keep the link or a screenshot handy, since registration may not be able to verify it otherwise. For minors, start with the parent waiver.
How do I complete a valid waiver? Complete the e-waiver yourself before you arrive. It must include an actual photo taken with your phone at the time you complete it. Photos of photos, printed pictures and screenshots of an old photo are not accepted, and a waiver without a valid photo will be rejected. If your waiver is rejected, you will get a message to complete it again. If you are unable to complete it after a rejection, reach out on Discord or email info@texassprintseries.com and we can reset your waiver.
How do I complete a waiver for a minor? A parent or legal guardian completes the minor waiver for each child. Both parents, or the single parent with sole custody, and the child must appear together in a photo taken with the parent’s phone at the time of completion. Each child needs their own waiver, and photos of photos are not accepted.
How long is my waiver good for? Your waiver is valid all year. Complete it once, and you do not need to sign again at each event.
Do crew and family need a waiver? Yes. An e-waiver must be on file to create a hard card, and the photo from the waiver is used on the hard card. Use the eWaiver link (also on the Rules and Documents page) to complete it. Hard cards can only be bought through Round 2 and are picked up at the first and second events only.
Do spectators need a waiver? Yes. Crew and family only complete an e-waiver if they are getting a hard card. Spectators and anyone else who is not getting a hard card complete a paper waiver at the event. Drivers and hard card holders need an e-waiver on file.
Can I bring a bike, scooter or skateboard? No. Our insurance doesn’t allow them, even when the track is closed. They’ll be confiscated, and riders may be removed from the event. Golf carts driven by licensed drivers over 16 are allowed. Anyone with a mobility disability can email info@texassprintseries.com for a pass.
Classes, Rules and Tech
What rulebook does TSRS use? SKUSA is the competition rulebook. IKF covers any class SKUSA doesn’t, and the TSRS Supplemental covers anything else. Conflicts are resolved in this order: TSRS, SKUSA, IKF. Everything on our website is part of our regulations. Rulebooks, the TSRS Supplemental and other documents are on the Rules and Documents page.
Where can I find class ages, weights and numbers? On the Classes page of our website. Ages follow SKUSA age rules. Classes may be combined or split based on entries.
Do engines and chassis need to be sealed? Yes, for every event. Seals are handed out at the tire desk. Sealing procedures are on Discord and the website. If you think a repair needs a seal cut, go to tech first.
What tools do I need for tech? Bring enough tools to take your engine apart when tech officials ask. Missing tools can result in penalties.
How are penalties communicated? Penalties are posted only in your class’s Discord channel and on the penalty points page. We try to text you at the number in RaceSelect, but that isn’t guaranteed. Penalty points are tracked per driver, not per class.
Can I protest a call? Yes, one protest per event, filed electronically within the SKUSA timeline. The form is on the Raceday website or the QR code at the stewards’ area. Minors must be accompanied by their adult representative.
Are push-back bumpers required? No. TSRS doesn’t require or penalize push-back bumpers.
Championship, Points and Prizes
How many races count toward the championship? Your best 4 of 5 races count. No-shows are not penalized.
How are points calculated? Points are heat race points plus main event finish points plus any bonus points. Top Qualifier and Fastest Lap in the main each earn 10 bonus points. The full points table is in the TSRS Supplemental on the Rules and Documents page.
What membership do I need for points and prizes? A TSRS Membership is required to participate in any event and is separate from SKUSA. To be eligible for SKUSA-provided prizes, you also need an SKUSA membership.
How are championship ties broken? By the number of times one driver beat the other in main events during the season, then heats if needed.
What are the championship prizes? Championship awards are presented at the year-end banquet. Prize details are on the Championship Prizes page and announced on Discord.
Policies and Contact
What is the refund policy? Refunds depend on what you bought and when you ask, including memberships, plans, entries and pit spaces. The full policy is on the Refund Policy page.
Can I bring a photographer or film from the track? Only our official media, Studio 52 and Kart Chaser, are allowed on the track and in secured track and staff areas, such as the scale line and the hot track, including during Friday practice. Other photography and video recording is allowed only from off-track access areas, which are the areas open to anyone with a spectator wristband. Drones are not allowed over the track. Anyone who does not follow this policy may be asked to leave the event.
What should I do with my pit space at the end of the weekend? Leave it the way you found it and move all trash to the cans or dumpsters.
Can I go onto the track if my driver is in an incident? No. Nobody goes on track without a staff escort. Race Director’s Notes say where to meet officials.
Where do I get updates during race week? Discord has the latest event information, Race Director’s Notes, schedule changes and penalties. The website has schedules, track maps and rules.
How do I contact TSRS? Message us on Discord or email info@texassprintseries.com. Please be respectful to our staff. Yelling or mean remarks toward staff, officials or anyone else won’t be tolerated.
