PCR Windfire
In a move that will change karting around the globe, the CIK are going TAG in 2007. Out go the familiar 100cc engined classes to be replaced by new ‘KF' designated categories using 125cc TAG (‘Touch and Go' on-board electric starter) reed-valve motors with clutch, integral water pump, balance shaft, rev limited ignition and exhaust power valve. Thanks to PCR we can bring you a preview of what's in store for 2007 and beyond!

Terry Fullerton
Britain's first Junior champion, the only person ever to win that title in three consecutive seasons and Britain's first karting world champion. Dave Bewley and Abigail Gerry interview the original ‘Weetabix Kid'!

Biland World Finals
Dubai Kartdrome was the venue for this year's top event for the Biland classes. As you would expect, Dubai has minimal rainfall and it hadn't rained since March. So, no surprise then that when karting came to town, the heavens opened! Saturday's racing had to be cancelled and the Finals ended up being run under floodlights. Full report in this issue.

From Karts to F1
Anthony Davidson and Lewis Hamilton have reached Formula 1 and secured full-time drives. Both started in Cadet, both had glittering karting careers and both appeared on the cover of Karting magazine in 1996! Mike Hayden charts their paths from karts to F1.
