SKUSA Approves Junior 1 Local Option Class
Martin Casey, SKUSA?s National Tech Director, has recently approved the addition of a local option JR1 class to run on a regional level. Both the Yamaha and Comer engines will be allowed under traditional junior 1 rules structure along with the Parilla Gazelle 60cc electric start engine in a restricted capacity. Technical specifications (effective immediately) for the Parilla Gazelle 60cc, the Yamaha and Comer will be updated to their rule book in the future. Links indicating the technical info on the Parilla Gazelle 60cc are provided below to serve as an interim until they get this added to their rule book.
The offering of this individual class is at the regional director’s discretion but will be conducted under the rules specified by SKUSA.
Casey adds that Seattle Karting Specialties in Washington is importing the engine and Italian Motors of Vancouver, Canada. The engine is currently being run at some of the Regional SKUSA events around the U.S. Again, this is not to replace the Comer or the Yamaha, but to give another option to the class. SKUSA will be laying out a JR1 class in the rule book and it will be a class listed as a local option, with rules and guidelines for the racer to follow.
The engine can be found by contacting importers Italian Motors at http://www.italianmotors.com (604) 253-4248 or Seattle Karting Specialties at http://www.seattlekarting.com (253) 383-2222. They will be able to supply a list of dealers who offer this engine.
