The 2023 USF Pro Championships Presented by Cooper Tires season officially came to a close this past weekend for the Jay Howard Driver Development (JHDD) program at the fast Portland International Raceway.

Fifteen-year-old Nikita Johnson put on a clinic in this afternoon’s third race of the VP Racing Fuels Grand Prix of Portland weekend, the season finale for USF Pro 2000 Presented by Cooper Tires.

Myles Rowe and Michael d’Orlando both achieved their goals during this afternoon’s exciting second leg of the VP Racing Fuels Grand Prix of Portland.

Kiko Porto this evening kept alive his slender hopes of snatching the 2023 USF Pro 2000 Presented by Cooper Tires title with a fine drive in the first of three races that will comprise this weekend’s VP Racing Fuels Grand Prix of Portland. Porto, the 2021 USF2000 Presented by Cooper Tires champion, from Recife, Brazil, kept his head while others around him perhaps did not as he sped to his second victory in the last three races.

Andersen Promotions today announced that Continental Tire will become the Presenting Partner and Official Tire of USF Pro Championships and its three ladder series – USF Pro 2000, USF2000 and USF Juniors – with a five-year agreement beginning in 2024.
