2019 NTK Rules Change Highlights PDF

Hi George,

I think someone added an event on the NTK Google calendar instead of their personal Google calendar by mistake. I have deleted the lunch date from the NTK Google calendar. If you find out where it is let me know, I'd like to go to lunch too, Lol!

Hi Brad, Sorry about the old 2017 rule information on the website. I just archived the old 2017 rules articles & posted a new article on the Home page with a link to the 2018 NTK Rulebook and also a list of the 2018 rule change highlights. I just take care of the website so I'll let someone else ans...

We are trying a new volunteer sign up form this year. Post here if you need help with signing up for a position.

Thank you Lisa Williams for suggesting we use a volunteer sign up website to make it easier for our volunteers to signup and easier for the race directors to manage the race day staff.

Check the Enduro Race Roster on the Home page. So far the following teams have paid entries Kid Kart Charlie Bradbury Kendall Hancock Tyler Roberts Liam Singleton Tag Cadet 2 Coleman Langley Ashlyn Speed Tag Junior Tristen Hanway LO206 Senior HOTKC (Shane Leggot, Erin Simms, Tommy Sutton, Rod Clinar...

Nazaaw, The article is correct. It takes skill to get a fast lap time in a lower horsepower (4-cycle or KT100) kart. It is all about being a smooth driver & keeping up your momentum through the turns. If you learn to drive in a lower horsepower kart you will be a better driver when you move up to a ...

You're welcome. Gene wrote those break-in procedures & gave them to people when we started the class a couple of years ago.

We buy our oil at Walmart in the large 5 quart size.

Jordan,

Here is a link to Chonda break in procedures that may be helpful http://www.gaddywebdesign.com/images/Ch ... k%20In.pdf" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Welcome to the Chonda class!

I think Gene puts large tubing over the seat struts to gently bend them rather than use a hammer. Let me check with him & I will post back if he has any other tips.

Hi Aaron, When I was webmaster I posted some articles in the NTK Resources page that includes one titled "The Art of Installing a Seat" it is a reprint of an National Karting News article. Be sure to click on the image to view the entire article that is four pages long. http://www.ntkarters.com/reso...

Paul, Please come to the track and see what classes are run & talk to racers in the different classes to see which class you might be interested in. Yamaha & Chonda are great classes to start out in. Both have large fields with plenty of other racers to race with. Which one depends on your budget & ...

Matt, My sons used to race in club & challenge Rotax classes & they would split the classes up with a class or 2 in between. This meant that we had to change wheels between heats. I haven't seen anyone do this lately. They seem to either run the club or challenge, usually not both. Maybe Bob can che...

With a Rotax engine you can race it in Rotax classes & TAG classes.

Randy, I don't think we have anyone racing in TAG Junior.

Reed Flores used to race in that class but he moved up to the TAG Sr class.

Wayne, I meant to specify clutch at the rules meeting to keep costs down but forgot! We use this one http://www.arcracing.com/servlet/the-19/centrifugal-drum-shoe-clutch/Detail" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; Not sure if we have any more for sale. I posted that over a year ago. Probab...
