ParticipantTo futher sweeten the deal any My-Kart members that purchase the kart you also get a set of tyres to go with the kart (not Mojo though ;), but rather Indo tyres).
It’ll be interesting to see how it goes, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it was on-par on laptimes with race karts that are double the price.

ParticipantLooks good and priced very well, for a European kart!
32mm, all around if I am not wrong – is same as what the latest CRG Road Rebel is using…
Guys, am sure Mikko/Kartmore will throw in a day of coaching for the new buyers too for free!
So, do I get the test? 😉

This is very tempting…. Will have to prepare a budget report and submit to all the relevant ministers for their approval…..13 July 2009 at 3:37 am #8612hanifcd
ParticipantThe sidepod looks like it came from OTK karts apart from the nose.

Yes! The term “rolling chassis” as Julian pointed out is usually a kart without tyres, engine, sprocket+chain. Right now for My-Karters the price includes a set of tyres as well. With a new Senior Rotax the price would be RM7,500+RM9,200 = RM16,700.I believe the current market low price for a “big-brand” rolling chassis is RM14,000 (I think Birel and Intrepid are similar on price locally).
Extremely good (2009) condition Rotax engines can be bought for around RM7000, while older engines for RM5000 or less.
Another benefit to this kart is that it uses SKM parts, which are pretty much interchangeable with Intrepid – so parts supply won’t be a problem in Malaysia. (Intrepid/SKM are the same company)

Looks a bit like OTK – but they are the “[url=http://www.kgkarting.com/tabid/269/ProductID/150/Default.aspx]KG Duo Evo[/url]” sidepods along with the Buru nosecone and number panel ;).[quote=hanifcd]It’ll be great for CK 125 Open drivers :D[/quote]
It fits the CK 125 like a glove ;).When I heard of the pricing I really couldn’t believe it. It’s effectively a race kart at near 50% of the cost. I’ll reserve full judgment until I drive it but it’s based off an Intrepid design so I expect it to be a very capable kart. The price is extremely low because it is ordered in large quantities (and not homologating it also saves $$) so assuming that cheap=low quality wouldn’t be right in this case 😉 – if only 3-5 karts were brought in it would be priced a lot higher.
When the kart comes in the first thing I want to do is to do a proper test with it comparing it to my current race kart (Intrepid Sirius).

We await the test with eager anticipation! This could be ideal for non sanctioned races……thinking.
