Ian started the topic What chain manufacturer to go for? in the forum 4 Stroke/Pro-Karting Discussion 7 years, 8 months ago
Looking on eBay there are lots of different makes of 219 chain. I’m guessing the cheap ones aren’t as good as the expensive ones but can anyone recommend a decent budget manufacturer to go for? Do they need to be changed regularly or will new chains last a season?

Ian replied to the topic Rules on brake dual connections in the forum 4 Stroke/Pro-Karting Discussion 7 years, 8 months ago

I have put some images on Flckr in case anyone has some more info on what it could be. Good news that I can run it with the torsion bars. Less work to get it ready 🙂Link to images:…[Read more]

I recently bought a rolling chassis and will be looking to enter the owner driver endurance races next year, once I’ve rebuilt the kart and sourced some engines. The chassis has three torsion bars which concerns me regarding the rules. Looking at MSA documentation it states that front ones must be removed or welded. I may be wrong but I believe t…[Read more]
