Not a bad concept - all on the same kart,pooled enginesand a good prize fund. Run by Daytona who transport the karts from race to race and so you do not need a trailer etc but then again you do not have a kart to practice on between races.
The series for 2017 is over three weekends with practice on the Friday and then races on Saturday and Sunday .
Total cost for cadets inc VAT is £15k and £17.4k for juniors and seniors. That is £2.5k per race for cadets and £2.9k for the others so not exactly cheap racing and it is not clear who pays for spares/accident damage. Awning space is included but looks as if you need your own mechanic.
Good to see someone trying to come up with an equal playing field series but it is not cheap and not sure that Tonykart is the best choice for cadets as they are still not that common in cadet racing (used to be very hard to get a good set-up).
