I’ve just been asked about the points you raised there, to which I was going to respond at the time but then overlooked it:
Yes, Italsistem did state that ‘their’ rotary engine (called the Saetta) was 250cc. I’d bet a considerable sum of money that you’d find, if you actually measured it, its capacity was greater: by 44cc would be my guess.
But the notion that the extraordinarily quirky, convoluted rules of one solitary national association – the MSA in this case – would be the slightest factor in designing a new engine really does overlook the bigger, global picture, which in the first instance doesn’t involve karting at all.

Yes of course it could easily be restricted to 35hp if any owner fancied doing that.

As for capacity limits, aren’t ‘Thunderkarts’ 390cc and, for that matter, doesn’t 2x GX160 = 320? I’m sure that’s covered somehow – don’t worry about digging out the small print.

As I said, quirky, convoluted and to me a rulebook written with certain interests in mind: a quagmire not worth wading through.

Finally, you mentioned front brakes and their cost somewhere else here: again true, not cheap. But VT250 (i.e. Swissauto et al) racing on the continent uses them too.
