TAL-KO SUPPORT FOR TYRE BAGS IN BRITISH CHAMPS

Tal-Ko fully support the use of sealing tyre bags to reduce costs for TKM drivers taking part in the British Kart Championships which comes into immediate effect.

Use of specially made TKM tyre bags for the TKM classes will mean that drivers can choose to take a set of wet tyres from their allocation in case the weather changes, but then put them back into the Motorsport UK sealed bags if they are not used.

The decision to bring about this option resulted from the TKM class owners and Championship officials working together to review progress so far which highlighted the potential need to add this option.

Says TKM boss Alan Turney: “We fully support this move and are pleased that the Motorsport UK team have listened to the feedback from ourselves and drivers to make this possible in a short space of time. It has been a great team effort.

“We have been able at very short notice to have TKM tyre bags which can be sealed by a tyre official. The change will be well supported by drivers and is an important step in reducing costs and of reducing tyre usage at a time when we are all being reminded of the need to reduce wastage of raw materials. We must praise the Championship officials for their swift response.”

This addition to the rules is immediate, coming into force for this weekend’s round at Fulbeck. The tyre bags for the Formula TKM classes can be ordered immediately for this weekend at:
