Tweet| 1 November 2012 |
Images have now emerged of the 2013 Tony Karts. The Racer EVK and Krypton KSK are the names of the Tony Kart top-range chassis for next year.
Above & Below: New pedals made of forged aluminium (previously chromed tube) are adjustable to suit people with various boot sizes. The pedal has a completely new mounting system to the chassis which incorporates a torsion spring.
Above: The Italian karts now feature a one-piece master cylinder for the braking system (previously there was a casting for each pump, plus a spacer). The internal diameter remains the same. The OTK SA3 brake system (replacing the OTK BS7 model) will have 4mm thick front brake discs, 1mm thicker from the old system.

Above & Below: A new fuel tank now has the filler set in vertical position and the chassis has a new fixing plate to keep it in position. Some of the chassis tubes surrounding the fuel tank now have special rings to route the fuel line from tank to engine without having to mess around with tape or ties.
