Royalty Racing has announced that Carson King will enter the Supersport Championship for the 2026 MotoAmerica season.

King, who is from Caseyville, Illinois, will be aboard the #35 Suzuki GSX-R750 beginning next month when he races in his first Daytona 200. After progressing through both the Junior Cup Championship and the Talent Cup Championship where he recorded multiple top-four finishes and qualified on the front row multiple times, this will be the 17-year-old’s third full season in MotoAmerica.

The move up to Supersport marks the next step in King’s development as he faces a deeper, more experienced field of riders. Royalty Racing team owner Travis King commented, “Carson was a little bit oversized for the Talent Cup bike, and we’re excited to see what he can do on a bike that fits him better and has plenty of power.”

The Daytona 200 kicks off the 2026 MotoAmerica season on March 5 through 8 at Daytona International Speedway.
