Upon request of the professionals present in SALBRIS for the second round of 2008 FFSA Karting Grand Prix, a meeting was held between FFSA/professionals on Sunday morning (13 April 200), after practice.
Purpose of the meeting:
– to draw our attention on the problems experienced with tyres.
Main issue raised by the professionals attending the meeting:
– inadequacy of the tyres offered by the manufacturer, especially in the KZ2 category.
After the debate and upon proposal of FFSA, the following decision was made, by unanimous agreement, by the professionals present:
for the rounds in ESSAY and VARENNES:
KF2 -> no change
KF3 -> no change
KZ125 -> change from type C (Hard) to type B (Medium) i.e. from YKC to YKB
The manufacturer confirmed that this tyre change is feasible.
The set of YKB tyres (2 front and 2 back) will be sold at 175 € taxes included.
No change will be made with reference to rain tyres.
This change will take effect on 28 April 2008.
Please note that this change in KZ2 category will be applied in LONG CIRCUIT events of the French Cup.
