La Conca Euro Champs
A boycott by the major factory teams reduced the entry to just 22 for the first round of the Super KF championship at La Conca, while a much more respectable 96 drivers lined up to contest KZ2. However, the low SKF entry didn't have as much effect as had been feared with some great racers still taking part. Jason Parrott led them home in Final 2 and heads the championship.

TKM TAG
The wait is over and the first BT82 TAG engines are now being delivered. We have some exclusive pictures and details in this issue and next month will be track testing this new addition to the Formula TKM ranks with a Formula 1 driver at the wheel!

Formula Kart Stars
Kimbolton hosted the first round of the championship formerly known as Champions of the Future and Stars of Tomorrow. The organisers had put in a tremendous amount of hard work since the series was adopted by F1 supremo Bernie Ecclestone just a few weeks earlier. Read how it went in our 4-page article.

European Superkarts
After a disappointing campaign last year, 2007 champion Gavin Bennett produced a stunning performance at this year's championship opener at Magny Cours, taking both wins and a maximum points score to set himself up nicely for the remaining rounds at Most (CZ) and Assen (NL).

Rotax Euro Challenge
More British success at the opening round of this year's Euro Rotax series at Zuera, the first time Spain has hosted a round. Luke Varley and Josh Webster won their classes and there were also podium places for James Greenway, Matthew Parry and Tamsin Germain. All the news starts on page 58.
