Karts
The EKS use a combination of 125cc 2-stroke hire-karts, 390cc 4-stroke hire-karts and 270cc 4-stroke hire-karts.
Sodi RT10 & SR5 GX390
The Sodi RT10 and SR5 are Sodi’s top of the range 4-stroke hire-karts. Highly-sophisticated EASY DRIVE technology give the karts precise handling, vastly superior to what their weight may suggest.
Combined together with a 390cc engine which has a wide powerband and endless acceleration, these karts will lap Buckmore Park within 3 seconds of a thoroughbred Club100 kart whilst around Three Sisters they will top 55mph on the Conrod Straight.
