Classes running in 2010 Club Championship / Weights

This is the list of classes that will be running in our Club Championship for 2010.

PLEASE BE AWARE that there are Weigh Marshals at all meetings and they are under instructions to issue a Penalty Notification to any driver who does not meet the required weight. If for example, the class weight is 135kg, driver and kart must read 135kg or heavier.

A reading of 135kg does not warrant a Penalty Notification as you have made the correct weight. If the scales read 134.8kg you have failed to meet the correct weight and will be penalised. "It wasn't underweight last week at a different track.." is not a valid excuse.

You need to use the scales supplied by the promoter of the event to assess your racing equipment. Leave yourself enough time in the morning on race day to jump on the scales and ensure you are running correct weights.
