A WKA 2002 Technical Manual may be purchased from the World Karting Association website.

Note: many of these regulations are wording specific for "WKA events" and in such cases, where applicable, these regulations are to be interpreted for "CKRA events" also. Section 101.5 refers to "spirit and intent" of the rules, and to carry this a step further, CKRA will use the spirit and intent of our club's mission statement in interpreting and enforcing any and all rules. Furthermore, we reserve the right to deny entry to any club event, any individual, for any or no reason in order to pursue that contained in our mission statement. Our club racing is in alignment with manufacturer's cup (2 cycle) and gold cup (4 cycle) sprint racing, and therefore excludes all regulations relative to road racing, speedway and champ kart.

104.4 Driver of record must be the competitor. No relief drivers.

105.6 All drivers are required to attend all drivers meetings. Juvenile drivers must be accompanied by their "crew chief".

106.2 We emphasize "inadvertent"!!!!!!!!!!!! Unsportsmanlike driving will be considered as causing an intolerable, dangerous on-track condition.

106.5 Adults only should assist in removal of kart. Juveniles should remain in the kart until instructed otherwise by the corner workers. You are somewhat protected by bumpers and nerf bars while in the kart even if it's in a precarious location. We don't want you getting out of your kart and stepping out in front of another kart. Remember to get those hands up to signal the other drivers!!!!!!!!!!!!

106.7 Even if not mentioned at the drivers meeting, the head flagman may allow and call for pit crew to re-start an "on-track", stalled kart if necessary for a re-start according to 106.15.4 . Pit crew cannot enter track unless directed so by the head flagman. Corner workers may be instructed to intervene and re-start a kart in lieu of pit crew.

106.20 We do not have a hot pit. Stalled drivers must appeal to the head flagman via hand signals for pit crew assist or corner worker re-start assist.

107.8 Skateboards, bicycles, scooters, rollerblades, etc. Are not permitted anywhere there is pedestrian traffic.

108.2 When head flagman displays a single yellow flag, it is a local yellow. Double yellow flags displayed by head flagman indicates a full course yellow.

202.2 6" diameter rims are also allowed.

208 Bodywork according to gold cup (4 cycle) section 258 is permitted to run in 2 cycle classes. Lower cross bar per figure 209.3.5 is required to run in 2 cycle classes. Ballast per 201.10 at front bumper is superceded by 251.10 .

208.2 CIK style noses are not required to be "break away" fastened and entrant will not necessarily get DQ if it falls off. However, entrant will get black flag if earned through misuse of nose.

208.8 Numbers should be 6" high, black on white background.

209.3.5 Back edge of lower bumper cross bar must be less than 4" from vertical plane at back edge of rear bumper. "torsion tubes" are acceptable as a lower bumper cross bar.

209.4 Double high nerf bars with cik style pods are allowed and subject to 208.1 requirements for appearance and mounting.

212.1 Wet weather conditions is not an issue because we will not run in the rain.

212.5 Event format is blind draw for starting position of first heat. Invert that order for second heat. Points earned in heats only determine starting position for feature race and do not count towards year end awards. (tiebreaker for heat points is previous blind draw) points earned in feature count toward year end awards.

212.7 Technical dq causes points to be zero.

212.7.1 Points are only awarded for finishing order in the feature. Black flag during feature is a technical dq.

Rookie gas class ; rookie gas class will have same chassis and bodywork regulations as briggs junior sportsman 1. Engine and fuel will be according to separate rookie gas engine tech found at the end of these regulations. Please research the concept of having an engine purpose-built for this class before investing in it. These engine tech rules will not necessarily be applicable come next season. Also, please refer to other club generated literature on this and other subjects relative to getting started.

258.3.1 Fourteen inch maximum height may be waived if driver is able to pass club vision test of identifying a face-up playing card on the ground, 30 inches in front of the nose cone, while normally seated.

258.8 Numbers should be 6" high, black on white background.

259.3.4 Bumper mounted oil catch cans are allowed as long as reasonably shielded by the bumper and reasonably attached per discretion of pre-tech inspector. A leaky or loose catch can will earn you a black flag, even if you passed pre-tech.

502.7 Calipers may be used in lieu of no-go gauges until such time as the club is wealthy enough to put out the big bucks to buy the no-go's.

554.3 No copper exhaust gaskets when using ssx-v supercan. (note: ssx-v is the only legal supercan ........ 4 holes, all 90 degrees apart)

601.1 Air filter adapter may be anodized.

602.1 Use of yamaha parts in the comer-arc engine is allowable.

Section 800 point system is entirely excluded. Points earned in heat races are only used to determine starting position for the feature race and do not count toward year end awards. Points awarded for feature race will count toward year end awards and will be according to finishing position. If you take the green flag, you will have a finishing position even if you dnf. A black flag is a technical dq, similar to an engine tech dq, which makes your points zero. The low pill number from the blind draw is pole for the first heat. Heat points are one for first, two for second, etc. And lowest total heat points gets pole for feature. (pill numbers from previous blind draw will be tie breakers relative to total heat points)

Points will be awarded as follows. (noe = number of entries, that class, that day)

Heat points	Finishing Position	Feature Points
1	1	20 + noe
2	2	15 + noe
3	3	12 + noe
4	4	10 + noe
5	5	9 + noe
6	6	8 + noe
7	7	7 + noe
8	8	6 + noe
9	9	5 + noe
10	10	4 + noe
11	11	3 + noe
12	12	2 + noe
13	13	1 + noe
14 and up	14 and up	0 + noe
100	tech dq	zero

All engines should be within all specs given in the WKA Tech Manual, Section 701, with the following list of exceptions.

2. Cam & lifters : Must be stock OEM parts only, unaltered in any way. Must use factory gear alignment. Lobes will be subject to visual comparison against a known OEM cam. Cam must fall within WKA Stock profile and dimensional limits. Any valve timing or lash is permitted.

3. Ignition timing : 27 degrees advance maximum. The flywheel key is not a tech item. Timing will be checked with a degree wheel, with the front edge of the flywheel magnet (leading edge) aligned to the front edge (trailing edge) of the coil. "Front" being toward front of kart.
