Prokart Racing
Hi,
If I was to take my licence in my prokart, am I able to race any other type of kart? Or would I have to retake my test if I ever wanted to change to a Rotax?
Also do you know which tracks race Prokarts? And how/where can I find out what regs a prokarts have to meet to be able to race?
Thanks!
Laura

Hi Laura
Welcome finally to our forum!! its been quiet here lately! but im sure with your help it will be a busy place!!!
a karting licence lets you choose your class of kart, as long as you fit the critera ie: age and minimum weights
if you have never held an RASMSA licence then you will have to start with a kart national 'b' licence, then compete in 6 races at circuits regulating under the RACMSA and obtian signitures from the officals. These races will be completed while using the black plates (novice) We know you not a novice as we have seen you run rings round Ross
once completed you will be able to obtain a kart national 'a' licence where its racing as normal
Honestly Rotax is a much better class to choose, decent power, good length between engine rebuilds, and there are more choices of events for the rotax's
have a look at this form http://www.msauk.org/uploadedfiles/msa_forms/Initial_Application_Form.pdf it is the application form for a race licence and hopefullt should help!
hope all is well!!

Hi Tom,
Thanks for getting back to me so soon!
I didnt realise there was so much involed, I thought it would be one test and off I go.
I am thinking of getting a Rotax - for the power mainly, and just wondered if it was worth taking my test in my prokart until I hopefully get my Rotax in November.
Haha Ross wont be happy you saying that - but we know its true lol
Thanks again!!

Re: Prokart Racing
lol i have no social life lately... mostly glued to a comp screen lol
take your test in your pro kart for now, as you are familar with it, get your licence, then move on from there. just because you take the ARKS in your pro kart, doesnt mean you have to stick to that class!!!
just let me have a go in the rotax when you get it

Hi Tom,
I found that at Lydd I can race my prokart without having to have a MSA licence. Its once a month and its run through the Kent Kart Club. I'm guessing its the same set up as CKC racing as its: 20 minute timed qualifiying, 4x8 lap heats, and 1x10 lap final.... and throphies too!!
I've just found all the regs for a prokart too, so im going down to watch on the next race which is 15th nov and 20th dec so if i dont get my rotax just yet, i might give it a go down there?
See you at Kart Mania
