Finalized Race Schedules for National Organizations
New Links Page(s) - this is part of a collaborative effort among
some of the other great karting sites to provide the karter with a
consistently updated and well organized directory to use.
Racing news from WKA and Tulsa events.
Restructured Kartweb Forum - the KW forum has always been
provided as a source to get answers to technical questions. There
are some really great chat forums on the web and we don't have any desire
to take away from them. Keeping up with all the different forums in
providing answers to technical questions is more work for us. This
will become more evident with the increased focus we place in 2004 on
technical articles.
Updated TAG information. The new rulebook is being
written, with manufacturer testing planned in January. The technical
specifications are pretty much complete and will be made available
on-line. The TAGUSA Rules are very similar to last year in nature,
but will have some minor changes as a result of testing and enhanced
clarification. TAGUSA is planning to launch a separate
organizational website hopefully in January.
King of the Hill - Every year Kartweb takes a look back at the
top organizations to get an idea of who really put on the best racing of
the year.
Karting Events for February
Tire Wars! Head-to-head comparison of 9 different
brands/compounds of tires! These tires were tested with the intent
of letting you choose the best tire to meet your needs. Why should
you bother spending $1500 to test them all when you can get that info at
Kartweb? Note that we have no conflict-of-interest with tire
companies in advertising revenue etc., allowing us to give you a the raw
facts. Also included is a realistic training video on how to mount &
dismount tires on the toughest rims.
Finally! Part 1 of Building & Tuning the CR125. Sorry
about the wait. Part 1 (Building) provides a summary of the basic 2
stroke technology and provides building info. Bottom end assembly,
and mods are explained. Porting techniques, with dimensional
specifications to optimized for RCE T3 and RLV B4 pipes. Head and
combustion chamber layout (including O-Ring dimensions) are provided.
Part 2 (Tuning) will be coming in February and deals with induction
systems (Carbs/Reeds) Pipe/Silencer tuning, Ignition Curves, and
detonation. We felt this information should be part of the
subscriber benefits then to simply re-sell CD's separately.
Best of 2003 Racing Video. This will take some of the best
footage we shot and combine it into a 12 minute show.
