FORMULA TKM REGULATION PROPOSALS FOR 2010

Tal-Ko Racing, organisers of the mega successful Formula TKM karting classes, have issued draft suggestions for changes to the classes from 2010 aimed at keeping down costs and opening the classes to more drivers.
 
The draft proposals have been drawn up following a public request for feedback from drivers via their newly created TKM Drivers Club.
 
The most significant proposal is within the 2-stroke classes, where the need to have karts specially homologated is dropped but with strict regulations that require all karts to meet the same specification with no caster/camber adjustment, no torsion bars, but still making use of 30mm rear axles.
 
This move will open up the class to a greater number of second-hand karts on sale at very realistic prices and simplify regulations for manufacturers.
 
Other suggestions include weight/carb restrictor changes to allow an even greater spread of Junior drivers to be competitive without the need to carry excess amounts of lead.
 
Tal-Ko boss Alan Turney stresses: “We underline the fact that at the moment these are draft proposals. We have always aimed to provide drivers with the most amount of racing for their money and by what we are proposing here we are keeping the key elements of the class while opening it up to potentially more people.  We look forward to the response.”
 
Full details of the proposals can be seen at the dedicated TKM club page and comments emailed to Tal-Ko at their special address: ideas@tkmdriversclub.com
