The 2010 Australian Rotax Superkart Nationals have been rescheduled for Saturday, October 30. The National title will be a single-day meeting at Wakefield Park Raceway near Goulburn in New South Wales.

After difficulties emerged with original plans for the non-gearbox Superkart Championship in May, Superkarts Australia has been working hard to reschedule the event. The meeting will feature four races to be held on the Saturday meeting. A practice day will be available the day prior, Friday, October 29.

"The return after a two-year absence is nothing short of sensational for the Rotax Superkarters," announced Superkarts Australia director Wayne Horswell. "The ease of organising this meeting is a credit to the AASA and Matthew Ronke from Wakefield Park in particular."
 
"We are back, and the foundations have been laid for an ongoing Rotax Superkart Nationals at various circuits around Australia."
 
With the title not contested in 2009, the cancellation of original plans to hold the event at Mallala has left the Superkarts Australia board keen to quickly get the event rescheduled, bringing with it the opportunity to return the event to New South Wales for the first time in over five years.

"Wakefield Park is a great driver’s track, ideally suited to the RotaxMax," continued Horswell, himself a Rotax Superkart racer. "The track has elevation changes, tight corners and a decent length straight. Wakefield Park is the home of the Superkart Club of NSW, but that will count for nothing as I'd expect some very fast opposition from around the country that will acclimatise to the circuit very quickly."

Reigning champions Michael Rogers (Rotax Light) and Mark Wicks (Rotax Heavy) have their titles on the line, last held with some fierce racing in front of large grids in changeable weather at Phillip Island in 2008.
