With two NOW600 Stock Non-Wing Division championships (2022, 2023) under his belt, Karpowicz aims to capture both the Rookie of the Year title and Series championship in his debut season. He'll pilot the No. 97 Lynk Chassis Midget for KKM.

His first experience with a KKM Midget came during the NOS Energy Drink Chili Bowl Nationals in January. Despite the learning curve, Karpowicz expresses confidence in adapting to the team's setups and racing style.

The young driver is particularly excited about competing on larger tracks like Federated Auto Parts Raceway at I-55 in Pevely, MO, drawing from his experience racing quarter-mile tracks in Texas.

Karpowicz will begin his Xtreme Outlaw Midget Series campaign at Farmer City Raceway for the Illini 100, running alongside the World of Outlaws Late Models on April 10-12. The event marks the start of his pursuit for both rookie honors and the series championship.

"I've been running Micros the last few years and we really felt like we did everything we could," Karpowicz said. "We felt like I mastered a lot of Micro-practices and figured it was time to move up... So, we'll run at the best team and give it our best shot."
