TaG USA announced the introduction of classes that appear to be based on OK engines… [image]

Rotax, at its height in the UK, saw engines being sold for £25k+. I think things have improved a little since then, but potential is still there for this kind of thing to happen again.

Are there any events scheduled for OK OKJ in UK going forward. It would seem that it has come and gone in UK even the truncated Vortex only version. Life span for the class 5? events in 3 years.

[image] d-i-y80: Are there any events scheduled for OK OKJ in UK going forward. Nothing at the moment, and I doubt for the future. Motorsport UK gave ‘British Championship’ status to all the commercial classes so it’s conceded that a true British Champs with CIK engines won’t return. I’d be s…

I can see how ditching the starter and clutch can save weight and reduce rotat…

Senior OK is a class that is based upon a single set of technical specifications published by the FIA (its kart division was known as the CIK but now I think it’s just FIA Karting but it’s still part of the nomenclature ) that manufactirers build to and then compete aga…

Sorry for the use of TaG, I was thinking of the basic design of a Leopard or ROK. Just trying to wrap my head around the rule set. My comparison was not meant to be an insult. I do not have the foreknowledge of previous rules and regulations for the best comparison. Was curious more about their …
