Round #1 & 2 gearing up.

[Rodney Ebersole]

Is the region race 1 the week after Craig’s Event on fathers day? I will need some of them special tires for when I run at Craig’s Race and wonder if Stacey will have some available on sight the week before your event?
Do I have to have the new bumper, new clutch, new coil, new cylinder head, new air box, to race a rotax in SKUSA.
Can a non-sealed rotax race if it meets the rules for a rotax entry?
What is the date for the summer nationals?

Rod,
The answers to all your questions can be found at http://www.superkartsusa.com under rules, and the rest under Mountain Region information.
If Stacey does not have any tires, call me. 303-241-8379

Thanks Curt,
I did find some answers in there. It is a little muddy finding a direct link to rotax usage.
After a little searching here is the answers as well as I can find them.
1. New $340 rear bumpers are needed. (unless I can find or make a wide double tube bumper that meets the specs,that I can’t find.)
2. Old clutch is OK this year in rotax Tag masters class.
3. Could not find rules about using the old ignition coils in rotax Tag masters for 2011.
4. Old cylinder heads OK in rotax Tag masters this year.
5. New style air box must be used for Rotax.
6. Still don’t know if a rotax must have a passport and service center seals to race in SKUSA.
7. The race director can determine if my appearance is clean enough to participate. LOL That one may be my biggest stumbling block..

1. I will lift the full rear bumper rule for Regional races only. The way the TAG Masters race one another however is reason enough to hang a rail road tie across the back of your chassis.
2. Cool
3. Contact John Motley @ [email protected] He will guide you through your technical Rotax rules questions. Give him a few days to respond as he is working a Pro Kart Challenge race this weekend.
4. Groovy
5. Far Out
6. See #3
7. I was going to talk to you about that…..
I appreciate the fact that you are asking these questions now and will do my best to make sure all questions are answered about those pesky Rotax motors.

Thanks Again,
Curt

Rod,

You come over and I will loan you a bumper and coil if needed. Pretty sure the old coil is fine if not I will trade you a new one straight across 🙂
