Race Format

The race format for the LEOPARD CATEGORY will see both Light and Heavy competitors line-up in the same field. Which means that there will be two weight divisions but run on the track at the same time in the same field. So all drivers will grid up based on their qualifying time - regardless of what class they are in, and the first Light and first Heavy driver across the line will win their respective categories.

The rules are as per AKA rule book, so are simple.

Rub shoulders with the elite
The atmosphere at the CIK Stars of Karting events is absolutely amazing!
Rub shoulders with Australia's elite drivers and see what its like to be amongst the professional side of karting.
If you are unable to follow all the rounds of the Series you can still WIN PRIZES by entering one of the rounds below in your State.

Leopard Class has produced MANY champions who have moved UP to CIK racing.
If you see last years’ entries in the CIK Series you will find that HALF of the competitors in KF1 and HALF of the competitors in KZ2 came from LEOPARD Class.
Below is a list of drivers from last years CIK Stars of Karting Series who competed in KF1 (Pro-light) and KZ2 classes and all came from LEOPARD Class.

 Jake Spencer, Cian Fothergill, Grant Smith, Adam Hughes, George Geranis, Jason Hryniuk, Ben Edwards, Matthew Erdmann, Elle Brydon, Cameron Macqueen,  Damien Radosevi, Shay Mayes, Tyler Greenbury, Matthew Hayes,  Kel Treseder,  Jason Pringle,  Matthew Wall,  Scott Taylor,  Kyle Ensbey,  John Grother,  Lee Mitchener,  Jordie Lindstrom

Develop your racing skills
So here is proof that Leopard competitors can gain a wealth of experience and develop their racing skills in the Leopard class. Leopard class competitors ARE our future champions. The IAME X30 engine is still the exact same engine as used world-wide. The other great benefit of owning an X30 engine and racing in LEOPARD CLASS is that there are NO RULE CHANGES.

The X30 engine was built by leading engine manufacturer IAME in 2004 and there have been NO parts changed since its inception in Australia in 2009, and we have kept our promises.
It is a true OUT OF THE BOX racing engine with low running costs with “NO BLUEPRINTING REQUIRED" nor possible due to the design of the major components.

Ultimate goal
The ultimate goal of this series being at such a prestigious event is to not only provide Leopard competitors invaluable experience competing in a low cost 125cc class with an amazing atmosphere but also the opportunity to ultimately MOVE UP into CIK racing.

We are very excited and also most grateful to the IKC on being given this amazing opportunity for the Leopard competitors in Australia to be able to compete at the most prestigious event in Australia as the CIK Stars of Karting Series, and we thank you.

Classes: Pro Light (KF1), Pro Gearbox (KF2), Pro Junior (KF3), Junior National and Leopard Class.
