Fuel and OIL
1. Any competitor spilling oil or fuel on the track will be subject to suspension. Methanol in all classes. NO ADDITIVES 2. Fuel may be pumped around or tested by any means available to KART officials. Violators may be suspended. 3. Crankcase content are subject to test, at any time, for dangerous, oxygen bearing or flammable vapor producing substances, which are prohibited. 4. Flame test procedure is as follows: 5. Drain about 1 fl. Oz. of crankcase oil into a large steel spoon or ladle 6. Apply heat to the bottom of spoon with propane torch while checking the surface temperature of the oil with an infrared temperature gun. 7. When the oil temperature is between 250 and 300 degrees maximum, pass the flame 3 times over the oil apporximately 1-inch above the surface. Do not touch the flame to the surface of the oil. 8. If the oil ignites and continues to burn when the flame is removed, it is illegal. If the oil flashes and the flame goes out immediately when the torch is removed, the oil is legal. Modifications of the method are acceptable if the following points are observed: Oil temp never exceeds 300 F. The flame source does not torch the surface of the oil. Continued burning of the oil is necessary for illegality.
SPECIAL RULES
1. No pressure tank in any classes. 2. Oil catch container overflows are mandatory in all 4-cycle classes. Overflow system subject to tech. 3. Tach and temp gauges are subject to tech inspection and are legal in all classes No sealer or paint may be used on any gasket or sealing service. Sealer may be used as an exhaust gasket in all classes. 4. Engine will be teched the day it is raced. Engine can be held up to 72 hrs. Carb saver brackets allowed. If head to carb type is used, the bracket and/or filter adapter must remain lower than the top edge of the carb inlet (type A adapter). Bracket may not alter tech dimensions (type B adapter). 5. Engines may be checked for air leaks. 6. There is no tech on the quantity of holes in the flywheel screen but if there are holes they cannot be uncovered at any time during the race.
Fuel Tech
There are two field tests for checking methanol. Any other approved test means available may be used. Either or all tests may be used. 1. In a clean bottle add ½ fuel and ½ distilled water. Mix and let set. A legal sample will mix and become clear almost immediately. If the sample turns milky or is contaminated by foreign material it is considered illegal. 2. Specific gravity. Check the specific gravity of the methanol using the following chart + or - .003 specific gravity variation.
