    Amazing. This is what karting needs. I hope it takes off. It could be the replacement of formula 6. That makes me so happy

      miss F6 so much Lewis, Roger was great. We still run Senior Open Twin as Mod160 and are hopefully joining up with this championship next year for quite a few rounds.

    Couldn't agree more with Brad, We will be definitely signing up for the Cadet season.
    There are so many upside to this championship, to name a few:
    As buying (pre 2018) used parts Karts will keep their value, I could even see resell for the same price. s decide later it isn't for you there is little financial risk.
    Unable to throw money to make you go faster, everyone will have the same kit.
    Honda's low maintenance Vs 2 strokes
    GX £ per seat time Vs rental racing is an easy winner
    Series is run by experienced karters, loads of free advice
    When moving from Cadets to juniors, reuse the engine (get it de- restricted)
    Social meet loads of like minded people who love Motorsport

    is there absolutely no way at all to do this with a 2 stroke, for say i do'nt know....30% more of the cost. x30/rotax still not affordable for most, what happened to TKM 4 stroke? it's a shame there isn't a super affordable 2 stroke option to this day.

    • @BradPhilpot
      @BradPhilpot  Рік тому +1

      To be honest - not really. The very nature of a two stroke is that they will wear out faster and require more frequent rebuilds. The cost effectiveness of this series hinges on the engine formula.

  • @lvchlann

    will this series race on proper tracks or just these rental type tracks?

    • @BradPhilpot
      @BradPhilpot  Рік тому +1

      Proper tracks for sure. Next up is Shenington, which is a major MSUK type-track, and then Hootton Park which is another large 2-Stroke style circuit.
      Next year’s calendar hasn’t been decided but it will have proper tracks for sure.
