2012 MAXXIS TKM Festival to Kimbolton Welcome to 2012 MAXXIS TKM Festival Est. 1959 To Kimbolton, the home of Hunts Kart Racing Club 1959 2012 Welcome From Tal-Ko Racing On behalf of Tal-Ko I have great pleasure in welcoming you back to Kimbolton circuit – the birthplace and home of this famous karting event! As ever we have our special format which puts the emphasis on giving you the driver, the maximum amount of track time. It also gives a true opportunity for everyone from a novice through to the most experienced driver, to prove their expertise. To mount such an occasion takes tremendous effort and dedication by the organising team and we pass on our heartfelt thanks to all the team at Hunts Kart Club who make such a real effort to 2 maximise the turnout of the circuit – complete this time with many revisions in format since our last festival here including track resurfacing and a new style grid. And of course we must also say a very big thank-you to Maxxis for their continued major support of the event and for supplying us all with some great tyres. Finally I’d like to say a personal thank you to each and every one of you competing for making the Festival the karting event of the year. I know many of you have travelled a great distance to be here. Have some great racing and watch out for yourself on TV. Good racing, best of luck…and enjoy your weekend. Alan Turney Tal-Ko Racing www.hkrc.co.uk Hunts Kart Racing Club Ltd for additional information log on P O Box 484.Welwyn Garden City.AL7 9HB 1959 2012 Tal-Ko History TKM owner and manufacturer, Tal-Ko Racing, has a long history within the karting world and numerous UK and International championship titles to its credit. Originally started in 1958 by Bernie Turney, the company has a fine reputation as an importer of quality karts and engines, while more recently being the only UK manufacturer of kart racing engines sold under the TKM brand name for 2 & 4 stroke classes. Over the years literally thousands of drivers have relied and won on TKM equipment including F1 driver David Coulthard and World Champion Jenson Button, who was a Junior S1 title-holder in the TKM 2-stroke class. Other star drivers like Anthony Davidson, Tom Onslow-Cole, Colin Turkington, Gary Paffett 3 and Nathan Freke, have more recently graduated from the Formula TKM classes. Since the death of his father in 1982, the company has been run by Alan Turney, himself a former top British kart racer and once team-mate to Nigel Mansell in the UK squad. Alan is an engine expert whose skills have fine tuned engines winning World Championship and British Grand Prix titles. The TKM BT82 engine used for the Formula TKM 2-stroke classes derived its name from Bernie Turney as a memorial – BT (Bernie Turney) and 82 – the year he died. The engine was first used in the USA where it become the dominant force within their categories and took their World Endurance titles. It was introduced into this country first of all under the title of the 100UK class in 1990. Later the class became known as Formula TKM. The TKM K4S 4-stroke engine was introduced in 2000 and was the world’s first 4-stroke engine designed and developed specifically for kart racing. It is used as far away as Canada and Japan. In the past few weeks TKM has gained another engine, with its takeover of the WTP 80cc water-cooled engine – an ultra-modern engine featuring all the latest features coupled with low noise and long life. Plans are being finalised for the introduction of this engine on a world-wide basis. So 54 years on from its creation Tal-Ko remains a significant player in karting with its engines used in many markets around the world, and in the UK with its commitment to providing the best value racing available through Formula TKM. www.hkrc.co.uk Hunts Kart Racing Club Ltd for additional information log on P O Box 484.Welwyn Garden City.AL7 9HB 4 www.hkrc.co.uk Hunts Kart Racing Club Ltd for additional information log on P O Box 484.Welwyn Garden City.AL7 9HB 5 www.hkrc.co.uk Hunts Kart Racing Club Ltd for additional information log on P O Box 484.Welwyn Garden City.AL7 9HB 1959 2012 Hunts Kart Racing Club 1959-2009 – 50YRS August 2012 WELCOME TO ALL COMPETITORS AND SUPPORTERS OF HUNTS KART RACING CLUB.

  • [June 2020 – Shenington 2020 Restart Plans]
    Sorry, we are not having spectators during the pa News [June 2020 – Shenington 2020 Restart Plans] This is an important message about the restart procedures for Shenington KRC, please read carefully. First of all the log in to the Alpha online entry system is changing for many drivers, so before anything else set this up please on the new login screen. If you have used an email and password to log in previously, e.g. for the British Kart Championships, then that will continue to work and you won’t need to change. Or you may have already changed for another club. If you used your MSA/Motorsport UK Licence Number to log in then you will now need to reset to use your email and a new password. You must use the email that you have registered with our club otherwise we won’t recognise your membership or previous history. Ignore the password and continue to submit the form, it will then send you a reset password link for you to set up a new password for Alpha. Going forward you will now have a lot more convenience, see later*. Re-starting racing at Shenington: Shenington will restart racing on 18 & 19 July each as a one day meeting with extended practice in the morning then the usual three heats and a final. The 15 & 16 August meeting will follow the same pattern.
