I've just got myself a gillard rotax chassis but going to race in the tkm extreme class.
Does anyone have any parts they want to sell to me? I'm practicing with a 3 time champion :grin: but tips are still very welcome.
I have an almost rolling chassis, minus the wheels.
Put a list of parts you want to sell if there is anyone who races.
cheers

I raced Rotax Max when I was younger, miss it! :sad: I bought an old IAME Parrilla a few years ago, 125 2 stroke and it was awsome getting back to it! Nowhere to go with it round these parts really though and didnt have a trailer so flogged it after refirbing it again. Everything you will need to know will be taught you when applying for, and sitting your quals. Rules change every year too so not much I could tell you tbh.

I'll be at clay pigeon next year racing rotax. I bought myself a sodi sr5, need to get engine still. As far as I know a rotax chassis can't be used in tkm, as tkm have limited chassis setup to bring the field closer together. Also tkm is better suited for small light drivers, if you're big you'll struggle.

tkm have allowed you to use any chassis you want. Thats why I have a rotax chassis with a extra soft 50mm rear beam.
Yeah been body building for 4 years lol I'm 100kg my first goal is getting down to 85kg :grin:
I'll be racing at redlodge and there are people my size so will have people to race. I aint setting out to win, not yet anyway. it's going to be tkm extreme so engine is 115cc which will help :lipsrsealed:
I've gone into tkm because my bro in law has been racing them since he was a kid. He did race Lewis Hamilton before he moved on to becoming a f1 driver. It will be a good laugh trying to race him, and he will teach me a lot.
I'm just starting, I don't want to race rotax, it's to much money for a bit of fun.
