Official Chassis Suppliers Announced for Micro & Mini Invitational at NOLA

With the 2013 Rotax MAX Challenge Grand Finals just a few months away, anticipation continues to grow for what promises to be one of the biggest and best karting events of all time.

This year's event will make history as the first time the Rotax Micro MAX and Rotax Mini MAX competitors will be part of the festivities with their own races in the Micro & Mini Invitational.
And, just as their older counterparts do in the Grand Finals, the 68 Micro and Mini MAX competitors will use spec chassis for an even and level playing field.

After careful consideration of submissions from multiple chassis manufacturers, we are pleased to announce that the official chassis suppliers for the inaugural Micro & Mini MAX Invitational are OK1, for Micro MAX, and Haase in Mini MAX.

Haase-Mini-MAX:
For any kart chassis manufacturer, being selected as an official supplier to this event says a lot about their ability to produce quality products and, just as important, to provide top-level support at an event of this stature.

Three years ago, when Haase first became involved as a chassis supplier for the 2010 Grand Finals in Italy, Jörn Haase stated that the move symbolized his company's position as a top-line manufacturer.

Upon announcing their return for the 2013 event in New Orleans, Jörn had this to say about Haase's involvement in the Micro & Mini Invitational, "All of us at Haase are pleased to continue our association with Rotax at their flagship event. For the past 3 years we have successfully supplied chassis for the DD2 Master class and this year, being involved as the official chassis supplier for all 34 Mini MAX drivers, represents our passion for the future of our sport and its young drivers.

We look forward to meeting our mini champions in NOLA."
