We
haven't seen a full set of finals at a Super 1 event yet this
year, so everyone was hoping the MSA British Championship
goes better.
KF1, KF2, KF3 and Super 1 cadets start the fight for the
2008 titles. Jack Harvey and Robert Foster-Jones are home
from succes in European KF2 and KF1 sees Litchfield, Bradley
and Rogers fight it out and tricky weather conditions.

comes to kart seats. Rarely challenged as the number 1 kart
seat manufacturer in the world, it has dominated the karting
scene winning numerous world, and European titles.
But a new player is on the scene to challenge
the Tillet whitewash – Iztech

While
British drivers continue to excel in the direct drive International
scene, UK based drivers have never made a big impact in the
ICC/KZ classes...until now!

Round
3 of the KF Winter series was held at PFi International and
it's the first big race of 2008!. The weather was variable,
but only caused 'mild' panic on the grid as mechs frantically
changed between wet and dry tyres throughout the day.
Litchfield, Foster Jones, and Taylor all
had 100% win records before Round 3. Did they continue their
winning ways?
