It really isn't difficult, if you are on any surface outside the white line on a kart track then you are on a safety zone. It doesn't matter if the safety zone is hard or soft.

If you need to use a safety zone, then you aren't properly in control of your kart.

If you repeatedly need to use a safety zone then you are driving without due care, if you repeatedly use a safety zone under control then because it is faster, then you are unfairly gaining an advantage.

Of course it needs a certain amount of common sense, people will always be touching a white line as a matter of racing, but when you see the karts coming round pit bend at Clay and deliberately putting the whole of the kart on the rumble strip, lap after lap after lap, then it is quite clearly "gaining an advantage".

Those same competitors would complain loud and long if they felt that their rivals had gained an unfair advantage by fitting Rotax tyres on a TKM, yet the timed advantage might be similar, especially if one adds in all the other kerbs too.
