We're considering the ROK class.
Not because we run ikr (we have an msa international c licence)
But because the msa uk karting x30 class will be massively expensive.
Ok, we'll need to buy an engine but the votex ROK is massively understressed, especially in junior, genuinely 30+ hours between rebuilds, that's about twice that of a x30 junior. Your Ł1950+vat will give you free tyres for the series (saving you approx Ł700)
The vortex ROK is basically a detuned ok engine, so massively reliable and with good parity, so no chasing fantasy engine numbers, with fantasy prices. Better still, the big teams aren't holding the best engines, so a privateer can compete.
TDI media will ensure amazing coverage, that the msa will struggle to match because they're going from a standing start.
I fully agree, the uk doesn't need anther class but considering the hand John was dealt, I think it's good that he's come out fighting and whilst I'm sure the msa champs will attract the big numbers, due to TDI's coverage, the world might not realise that's the case
