Karting Yearbook

The Motorsport UK Karting Yearbook is your guide to the regulations, classes and technical requirements for karting in the UK. It should be read alongside the National Competition Rules, giving you the specific karting information you need to prepare, compete, organise or support Motorsport UK kart events.

On this page, you can access the latest Karting Yearbook PDF, including regulations for Bambino, Cadet, Inter, Junior and Senior karting, covering both non-gearbox and gearbox classes. You’ll also find class-specific details on chassis, engines, tyres, weights, number plates, age requirements and safety equipment, alongside appendices for homologated chassis and brakes, eligible engines, the National Tyre List, silencing, licensed kart tracks, ARKS Club examiners and a quick guide to kart classes.
