Retuning for on night only:

Without having to march up and down the pit lane waving regs you fail to understand, THIS is what it all means:

If TKM sequential plate has been removed then the chassis must then conform to latest regs where they must not only use CIK crash tested plastic but all the associated chrome work / mounting bars must also be CIK matched crash tested.

If the sequential plate was still on kart then under its homologated protection it only needs to have crash tested plastic which can me mounted on modified (if required) original non CIK chrome work.

See rule B3.3.14

B3.3.14 Use of CIK homologated crash tested bodywork consisting sidepods, a front fairing and Nassau panel is mandatory and must conform to MSA technical regulations. A CIK rear protection system is not permitted. The sidepods should be a matching pair of same homologation on either side and the front fairing and Nassau should also be a pair from the same homologation, but these two sets of body pairs can be from different homologations. It is permitted to modify the bodywork mounting points on the chassis to accept CIK crash tested bodywork but it must be undertaken in a professional manner. Karts homologated for the class and made in the period up to 2006 where they are fitted with a traditional front bumper incorporating two vertical front uprights are permitted to make use of the CIK front fairings without the CIK associated metalwork. In this case, as long as the two vertical uprights remain in place, the requirement for a securing block as per MSA Competitors’ and Officials’ Yearbook regulations is waived and the fairing may be attached to the kart by any safe and secure method in two places, not necessarily the CIK type clips.

TKM homologated karts for the period up to 2006 inclusive with old style diagonal bar fixing points may use side bumpers with a minimum of one to be with a minimum size of 18mm diameter (19/20mm recommended) and a wall thickness of 1.4mm minimum securely fixed to the chassis by a minimum of two points on each side and must allow for the attachment of mandatory side bodywork. The plastic elements of the bodywork must be CIK crash tested and homologated as per MSA regulations but the sidepods must be of the fully enclosed type with closed ends. Sidepods may incorporate suitable holes for starter shaft, airbox trumpet, etc where MSA rules permit. When wet weather tyres are fitted, it is permitted for the wheels and tyres to be inside the sidepods, so long as the sidepods have closed solid ends.

So no, you don't have to keep the plate on a TKM homologated chassis.

Was that so difficult?
