Reduce tyre fee's, allow non-stamped items such as sprokets, clutches, end cans, chain guards, airboxes, etc.

The major one is tyre's though, that is the largest cost at the moment. Take your average karter, we will use Mr Kasch as an example, well he say's that he uses his tyres for 3 meetings and then has to buy new tyres, that is £115.15 divided by 3 meetings = £38.38 per meeting is the cost on tyres for him. If the cost of tyres was £50 a set then his cost per meeting would be £16.66, that is a saving of £21.72 per meeting. Now work that out per year and that comes to a saving of £260.64 per year and that would pay for 2 race meetings at the new reduced tyre rate.

Maxxis seems to do a variety of tyres, have a look at this link

http://www.kartingtyres.com/?ref=adwords

Have a good look at that site, they do three pages of different tyres. We would be better going for harder cheaper compound tyres as the softer you go the more the variations seem to be between the batches.
