Zanardi Corse Australia advise their new TaG/KZ chassis has arrived in the country. The 2016-spec kart is a development of the already proven TaG/KZ Zanardi package
"This chassis is the refinement of an already established user-friendly chassis" Zanardi Corse Australia's David Brewer said.

In addition to a number of appearance upgrades, Brewer told KartSportNews the technical differences include a change to the front-end geometry, different specification material used for some of the chassis rails and 'full-height' rear bearing hangers.
An upgraded steering wheel, foot rest and quality NEK carbon floor tray will all be standard issue, as will silver plastics as soon as production is complete.
Brewer also announced a new Zanardi dealer for Victoria, John Reynolds from John's Trackside Spares. This adds to BRK who sell and service the product in South Australia.

"I cant wait to work alongside John and his new drivers and, with technical assistance from Graham Ritter, I am positive they will do our brand very well.
"Initial tests so far have been very strong with multiple drivers. We can't wait to see some runs on the board in Victoria."
Further Zanardi dealers for QLD, NSW and WA are set to be announced soon.
