Formula TKM 2-stroke

Junior & Senior Extreme

The newest TKM S9 Kart, produced in both short & long wheelbase versions, share many elements - but with each wheelbase specifically aimed at driver age and size to give the quickest lap times.

Both versions are fully upgraded latest designs taking into account the latest New Age Green label dry tyres and use of 50mm rear axles now permitted in TKM. These exciting new models offer the exact degree of compromise of handling needed for cold wet club meetings through to national championship levels. The TKM S9 S with the shorter wheelbase is generally recommended for the smaller, younger Junior and together with the Senior Extreme lighter drivers and has the pedals situated closer to rear axle whereas the TKM S9 with the longer wheelbase is ideal for the bigger Junior as well as the Senior Extreme driver. In addition they have been greatly refined and revised in detail giving these new breed of chassis clear advantages over the opposition in terms of build quality and equipment together with race pace.

The TKM S9 Kart took 2 British Championship titles in 2009 proving their performance over the rest.
