Looking at success of K1, this would be the way to go with K2.

Great idea. Hope this would attract other serious potentials to join the series

agree da proposal...more fair i think...anyone?

Views from the current crop of K3 drivers aspiring to join K2 next season are very welcome!.....come on!

Hint: This idea can materialise if we have at least 20 regular K2 drivers committed to race in every round.

Good idea but can I honestly ask if all of you in K1 happy with the karts nowadays?

This answer will pave the way on how u want to negotiate your deal for an exclusive K2.....

I can assure u AP will start talking on some long term contract for K1 soon.....I think u better tackle this first before having lofty ideas for K2. How I know? well.....

anyhow, just an advice, no a wet blanket.

sounds great!!! YIPEEE!!! ballast are a nice thing ^_^... one thing tho... if u r getting exclusive karts... will they be properly maintained?? im just worried that overtime it will be the same as the current k2 karts... i mean.. if we are already paying RM170 for broken/worned out karts... how well can they maintain these new ones if the pricing is similar or the same?!?

I'm happy

Maintenance: CK assigned a specific group of mechanics to the K1 karts. We expect the same for K2 when it become exclusive. Secondly, my-kart collects feedback / reports from K1 drivers after each race and these reports were transmitted to the mechanics for rectification. We than monitor the progress and status of rectifications ahead of the next race. The K1 driver may also rent their assigned karts for testing and practice, thus further reducing the chances of an ill prepared kart ahead of the next race.

...its not perfect but so far so gooooooddzzzz! (Mark,

110% support this proposal...ballast!!

No doubt about it, its a good idea~

Agree that it is not perfect but it sure beats the crappy 100cc karts hands down 10 fold.

hehehe, I see abang Ajak coming to K1 next year already....

"you can run but you can't hide"

sounds promising!!lets just hope this goes through then XD

I'm game for it.... Provided Im around..... Looks good!

My vote goes for this exclusivity proposal, though I am not sure how exclusive we can get CK to agree with (or what we can tolerate with). FYI, I saw a few K1 karts running for rental the next day after Rd8!

Until then, I am considering to jump to K1 directly for 2009 - pending committee approval.

... my-kart's crime prevention unit have been notified! However, there are many privately owned karts that look very similar to our K1 karts, but thanks for alerting us.

Bro Rizal, thanks for the alert. That is very easy to identify, just help us to check next time if that is a power valve at the back of the Rotax cylinder, ours Junior max does not come with the red color power valve.

100% support this..... hope it can be materialize soon

Guys,

The proposed 2009 K2 exclusive program will not be possible (AP's condition)if we dont have about 20 drivers committed to it.

The Roll Call, subject to reconfirmation thus far :
1) Chris - maybe
2) Faibs - appeared like a Yes.
3) Rizal Khalid - maybe
4) Azizi - appeared like a Yes.
5) Ruben - appeared like a Yes
6) Zainy - appeared like a Yes
7)
8)

K3 drivers who have completed a full season and want to 'upgrade' to K2 may also add their names to the list. Nicco?

Role Call.. common K2 drivers?! If I'm needed for the masses.. ok la.. go thru exclusive K2 first (before jumping to K1 -- should be around rm120 right )

...rm120?...no chance man!

maybe try changing the places of the 1 and 2.. hehehe

In respect of the ballasting, what would be the minimum driver weight before they could expect to receive ballast?

Cheersburgers

Chris

I think, I'll better stay on the K2 for another season. He..he..he...

In K1, minimum weight is 160 kg (kart + driver) at all times. Subject to final confirmation, I would expect the same minimum weight to apply for K2.
