I don’t think the FIA Motorsport Games is the same Motorsports Games you are talking about. The FIA Motorsport Games is the official race run by the FIA, whereas those other guys look like the publishers of online games. THe FIA Games re like the Olympics of motorsports, where countries enter and compete by nation.
With that said, Yes! The Tilly Rental Karts were indeed the karts used for the FIA Motorsport Games. They were also the same karts we used for the T4 Nations Cup endurance racce in Spain the month earlier. We ran them with a 212R engine, but they could also be run with the 225RS for more power. We are really happy with the karts. They ran a 4 hour endurance race in Spain and a 6 hour race in France without a hitch and everyone seemed to enjoy how much fun they were to drive. They are a bit lighter and more nimbler than a standard rental kart.
I’m not aware of any sprint AKRA racing, and I don’t see anything on their website that point to it. Maybe they have plans for 2023 for it?
In road racing I would expect the 225 to eat up a 206 given how much aero is the limiter of speed there. Which also means throwing weight at the situation to balance them is not going to work as well as one might expect (If that’s even the plan)
Maybe we’ll see road racing as being the home for the 225 in the US in a similar way that it’s the last bastion for KT100? Arguably the 225 is more suitable for road racing compared to the 206 due to the extra power and 206 has a hold on sprint that’s next to impossible to break unless Briggs do it themselves somehow.
The clone and predators are still very healthy. I think this will actually be the death of the 206 in dirt racing (although it never really was alive anyway)
Being in the U.S. I was never been sold on the Tilly. Personally I think the roll out and information was too confusing. So my initial reaction was, “I’ll pass” or “I’ll wait for this to fad to pass.
Nothing regarding the mixup.
