Ultimately the MSA, I suppose. But I presume the MSA itself takes precious little interest in that sideshow called karting and instead just rubber stamps the lead it�s given from within karting. That is of course unless a company with clout like that of BRP has were to come along and say �sanction this or else�. Am I wrong? Funny thing is, allowing ICC and not allowing Aixro is the equivalent of saying �You�re welcome to run red, 12-cylinder Ferraris on track days, but a yellow, 10-cylinder Lamborghini? Forget it!� I�m not aware of them doing that with respect to cars, but then car products generally have large companies with potent legal departments behind them to pre-empt such anti-competitive rulebooks.
Having said that, I�m not sure I see the appeal in running either ICC or Aixro on long circuits. While it may initially be a bit of a blast, surely just running flat-out most of the time would get a bit monotonous? Plus I wonder how good prolonged high-rev running would be for either of these types of engine; except that the owner of a 125cc 2/ gearbox engine would expect to rebuild his motor every 5 minutes anyway.
There used to be � last I heard of this was 2 to 3 years ago � a company that organized kart track days on a section of the modern N�rburgring with �classes� for all manner of karts from juniors through to 1000cc motorcycle engine concoctions.
