(Macon,Illinois) In just a few hours the town of Macon, Illinois will be invaded by one of the largest guaranteed purse for a single go kart race that it has ever seen (outside Summer Shootout). The Unilli Money Series is set to run its fourth out of five races this Saturday at the "Worlds Fastest Fifth Mile". Macon Speedway stock car divisions historically takes the first weekend off in August due to the Decatur Celebration, and a special weekend for Go Kart racing gets its chance to take the big stage. For the promoters of this special weekend, Tommy and Dianna Bennett will promote the 6th Annual Hartung Powerwash Nationals. This event each year has hosted over one hundred karts and this year should be no different. With the threat of rain out of the picture now, the entire focus shifts to what will be one of the greatest kart shows in the Midwest in 2013.
The Go Karts are becoming a more familiar thing around the Speedway as this will be the second huge event for karts as the first was the Burris Thunder Tour in late June of this year. The Hartung Powerwash Nationals will be the sixth year in a row it has been held at Macon Speedway and with the addition of the Unilli Series it could be the biggest yet.

Wing Sprint karts will also be racing for the same prizes as the UAS Opens. The Adult Clone 360 and 400 class both paying $500.00 to the winners if they get twenty or more karts in each division.
