Revisiting the Greatest Kart Race Ever! The TKM Festival 2013

This is unbelievable racing!  So clean, so fast and so precise!  The 2013 TKM Junior Elite final from the UK!

The engines are 100cc air-cooled direct drive engines with a decompression valve for easy bump-starting, much like a shifter kart.  They produce about the same amount of power as an HPV3 engine.  The engines are very high quality, with CNC machined barrels and high quality castings.  This means that each engine is incredibly similar from the factory - no need for expensive blueprinting!

The Senior version of this engine comes in 115cc displacement.  They have a few more horsepower than a 100cc HPV or KT100.  Even with durable and long-lasting tires they pump out lap times several seconds quicker than a 100cc kart.  This is great step-up from a 100cc kart as it provides more speed, direct drive precision as well lower operating costs due to the absence of a clutch.  A truly excellent engine package for Pure Racing!
