Just read this thread, and find that the obvious answer is being ignored.
Simply go into Junior Blue.
The engines are standard, out of the box, no tuning allowed. They aren't sealed.
They are TAG engines with an onboard starter but the engine provides enough volts/amps to keep the starter battery charged.
The carb is simple and cheap. The engine is water cooled, so once set you don't need to keep fiddling with it.
The engines have a resrictor, so drivers from 38kg through to 85kg are racing on a level playing field.
The class has been around for a decade, and has its own national class series.
At the last race meeting the Blues and TKMs were evenly matched, earlier this year the Blues were faster than Minimax at Dunkeswell.
You can go straight through from Junior to Senior, just by changing the restrictor.
At the moment there's a surplus of Blue 100cc engines available. Jake Calvert is selling all his engines as he's doing FKS next year, the whole package: engines, exhausts, electronics, radiators for a dirt cheap price.
The only drawback is the limited number of juniors on the grids at the moment,(They used to have the largest grids in Scotland, MBKC, and the South) but the formula doesn't let the traders make enough money out of them.
It's worth looking at, especially if you are looking to move up from cadets.
