Tulare County Kart Club 2009 Changes
Welcome to the Tulare County Kart Club web site. We've changed some rules and added others. The changes are noted on this page. For a complete set of rules and class structure/requirements, please click here.
New Membership Fees/Rules (note: we raised the fees $5 per class)
A family membership will consist of a maximum of two drivers and
cost $75. Each family membership will receive 10 $5 discount coupons to
be used for driver's passes or pit passes throughout the year. One
coupon per membership per race. Only two plaques will be awarded for a
family membership. Members can purchase additional plaques at the club's
cost.
An individual membership consists of one driver with up to two karts and will cost $45. Each individual membership will receive 5 $5 coupons to be used or
driver's passes or pit passes throughout the year. One coupon per
membership per race. Only one plaque will be awarded for individual
membership. Members can purchase additional plaques at the club's
cost.
For drivers racing more than one class, you will be charged $40 driver/pit fee for the first race and $25 each class thereafter. This is per driver. For families with more than one driver racing multiple classes on their membership, each driver pays the first $40 for their respective classes, then each one pays $25 for each additional class.
New/Changed/Previously Undocumented Rules
For 2009 Racing Season, your engine/weight/age must fit the class requirements/structure. If you do not, you will not get points for racing, unless the board and the class members agree to waive this rule. (Waiving the rule is done on a per driver evaluation basis only.)
Pea pick closes when the driver's meeting starts. If you don't pea pick, you will start both heats at the back of the class.
If you hit 3 cones or more during a race, you will be put to the back of the class. If you do this 3 times in one race, you will be black flagged.
If you are not a club member by the third race of the season, your points will not count for end of the year awards and you will not receive a plaque. (Note, this was the rule last year, but not noted on the rules page).
Our insurance requires that we have birth certificates on file for all drivers under 18. If we don't have a copy on file, you need to provide one. We will notify you if we don't have the birth certificate on file. (Note, this is not a changed or added rule.)
New Class
We have added a Beginner/Junior class (ages 5 - 8) to the Briggs classes. For details, see the class structure page here.
