💥ROSS’ ROTAX EXPERIENCE💥
Our Sprint Kart Secretary, Ross McIver, has launched a new initiative at the East of Scotland Kart Club aimed at giving drivers the opportunity to try Rotax racing.
Ross has personally purchased two karts to support the project and make it easier for drivers to experience owner level karting.
The karts available are:
🔻OTK Exprit chassis with a Senior Rotax EVO engine
🔻OTK chassis with a Senior Rotax Pre-EVO engine
🔻Junior Rotax Evo engine available for hire
Both karts will be supplied race-ready, including:
🔻Selection of sprockets
🔻Dry and wet wheels with good condition used tyres
🔻100ml bottles of pre-measured two-stroke oil
Please note: fuel will not be provided.
Full hire rules will be provided outlining the specific details of the agreement.
✅Supporting the Initiative✅
This project has been funded by Ross along with support from members of the ESKC committee. This venture is not funded by money raised by the club it’s a solo effort from Ross, who welcomes donations from anyone wanting to get involved and help out. He would greatly appreciate any donations of karting equipment that could support the initiative.
We have already received items including seats, wheels, and part-worn tyres. The long-term aim is to expand this programme and potentially provide Junior Rotax, Inter, Micro, Cadet and Bambino karts in the future.
If you have any spare parts or equipment you would like to donate, please get in touch with the club.
📝Flexible Hire Options📝
The hire agreement can be flexible depending on the driver’s experience and requirements.
🔻Saturday practice hire can be arranged for drivers who want to try a new class or experience owner-level karting.
🔻Drivers competing at a competitive pace and holding a Super KX or RS Clubman licence may hire the kart for a full race weekend at ESKC.
This offers a genuine arrive-and-drive opportunity in a competitive owner kart, representing a significant step up from rental karting and helping introduce more drivers to the sport.
The karts will be well maintained and race ready. Consumable parts will not be charged to the driver and will be replaced using hire fees. However, any damage caused during the hire period will be the responsibility of the driver.
