Parilla Leopard and Yamaha KT100 Supplemental Engine Rules
KRA will be implementing new engine tech rules for the Parilla Leopard and Yamaha KT100 in 2013. These new rules will address an ongoing issue with cylinders that have been modified in the port area. Even though this rule may make it necessary for a handful of racers to purchase new cylinders, it will most definately prevent hundreds from ever needing to have modifications done that will cost each racer hundreds per cylinder. This rule change will not impact the majority of racers.
KRA will not be the only series putting "blowdown" rules into effect, as a number of regional and national series are also adopting similar rules. These rules are in place to eliminate any Leopard or Yamaha cylinder from having an advantage over another and puts the emphasis on driving, experience and chassis tuning. KRA may also apply this rule to other engine types in the future if deemed necessary.
Parilla Leopard - Transfers checked with LAD tool - Minimum blowdown .395", Maximum .405".
Exhaust checked with LAD tool - Minimum blowdown .235", Maximum .265" (boost port checked with controlling edge of ring).
To check Transfer Blowdown - Subtract highest exhaust port height from highest transfer port using LAD tool.
To check Boost Blowdown - (From TDC) Rotate piston past boost port opening .100", rotate back up until controlling edge of ring closes boost port.
Subtract highest boost port height from highest exhaust port height
*Parilla Leopard must run OEM IAME stock reeds only
Yamaha KT100 - Minimum blowdown .380", maximum .410" as measured with LAD tool
Transponders -
*Transponders will be used in all classes for Qualifying and Racing
*Transponders are available for rent for $16.05
*Transponders and Brackets are available for purchase at NCMP
*If you have your own MyLaps Transponder you are welcome to use it at all KRA Series events, we will also have transponders for sale at all events
*It is the DRIVER'S responsibility, not KRA's, that the transponder is installed correctly and functioning properly on the kart. Failure to do so will result in not being scored during qualifying or races.
