EASYKART PROJECT

Juan Pablo Montoya F1 Driver


THE RANGE
Classes: 50, 60, 100, 125 light, 125 heavy, 125 shifter

50 TRAINING:
The kart, which develops about 6 horsepower, is their first approach with the track. Considering their very young age they do not participate in races, but take part in training exhibitions with an instructor who holds a technical briefing and follows the participants during their two race simulations, with their own starting grid, and positioned in order of extraction. Such a choice has been a winner as it allows the children to mature their own passion for racing, without the initial stress which comes with performance. Age: between 6 and 10 years.

60 EASYKART:
The drivers coming from the Training 50 can already at 7 years accede to the 60cc class, the first agonistic category in the Easykart project. The 60cc class is developed on 10 horsepower, and guarantees all the training concepts necessary for agonistic karting. In countries which have adopted the classes, Easykart has imposed itself as being the most important school for access to superior categories: the strong points - the technical equity which distinguishes the drivers and the highly contained costs. Age: between 7 and 14 years.

100 EASYKART:
Represents the training continuity after the 60cc class. Access is at 11 years old and the most significant data, after the first 5 agonistic seasons, is that almost 100% of the drivers coming from the 60cc class will go on to the 100cc to continue their agonistic experience on a relatively low budget. The kart develops more than 20 horsepower and it has demonstrated to be highly instructive in relation to the transition to international classes. The strong points are that the pilots are guaranteed training which, thanks to the limited regulations permitted, learn to adapt themselves to the kart and to ascertain its limitations even in bad conditions. age: between 11 and 18 years.

125 EASYKART LIGHT:
For those who do not wish to or are unable to reach the international classes, the opportunity exists for them to continue kart racing in highly competitive races and at low management costs. The engines are over dimensioned with respect to the power expressed (about 28 horse power), thereby guaranteeing a notable duration. This category is for drivers over 15 years and foresees in its regulations a minimum weight of 150 kg. In all countries where Easykart classes race it is, in absolute, the most stimulating category in terms of presence. Age: over 15 years.

125 EASYKART HEAVY:
In terms of technical and agonistic regulations it is identical to the Light class, the only difference being that the minimum weight requested for the kart is 160 kg. in the order of gear and 80 kg. for drivers in racing outfits. Also allowed are those drivers who are considered "gentlemen", or those 35 years and over. As in the Light class, this has many participants and the races are always a great attraction. Often car drivers can be seen to be competing in the races as this is an excellent training opportunity. Age: over 15 (if at least 80 kg. in racing gear) otherwise over 35.

125 SHIFTER:
This was created to satisfy the enthusiasts from the categories with gear sticks (shifting). The frame is the same as for the Light and Heavy classes, and the restrictions are identical. The engine, however, has been specifically realised by Birel with the aim to join innovation (thanks to a highly advanced electronic
conduction) and trustworthiness. The power expressed is about 35 horse power, highly inferior to the true potential of the motor, whilst the cooling system is run by air to simplify management and to reduce the acquisition costs. There are six gear changes. age: over 15 years.
