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
Hey, whats the difference between stock gx200 and gx uk type gx200? How much power does it produce and what is the tuned rpm? I couldnt find information. I’m considering to join next season from Turkey
If you mean stock as in a generator engine - probably too many differences to go into. The engines have to be the race version, built and sealed by one of the designated engine builders like RPM / GXT etc. You can get them second hand for around £450 on eBay for example.
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.
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.
@BradPhilpot yes I believe that back in the day the tires of 2 strokes lasted longer than they do now I will also be experimenting with mitas src tires on a shifter kart
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.
Hi everyone how could someone at 40 get involved in this? Bit different from tkm but seems as much fun .. also best place to find a decent starter kart
Amazing. This is what karting needs. I hope it takes off. It could be the replacement of formula 6. That makes me so happy
Come and race!
@@BradPhilpot I’m to committed time wise this year to buy and prep a kart etc.

Looks like great fun great result seeing as you never raced there before.

That and the tires @@BradPhilpot
@@daveyab4889 two strokes
Do use these same tyres in 6 hour endurance races so they can be used
@BradPhilpot yes I believe that back in the day the tires of 2 strokes lasted longer than they do now I will also be experimenting with mitas src tires on a shifter kart
will this series race on proper tracks or just these rental type tracks?
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.
@@BradPhilpotgood i'm in aus but just thought it would be an absolute waste of a great idea if they were only racing on those little rental tracks
