Just read this under the reasoning for proposal one:
As less manufacturers homologate, this route is simply not sustainable and with the 1998 homologated list of karts being removed as eligible to race in TKM from Jan 1st 2010 due to 12 year homologation period ending, even less karts will be available for the TKM It should also be remembered that international style karts are usually larger and heavier and designed to run on much softer tyres with bigger engine so a TKM class designed kart should normally still be the quickest chassis.
So those guys who can make their older obselete chassis last another season or two will run rings around people on newer karts at twice the price?!
Then again if the tyres are changed this invalidates that part altogether!
