Formula TKM was created to provide close and competitive racing at reasonable cost. Thousands of drivers have competed in TKM, including FIA World Champions Jenson Button and Anthony Davidson, and double BTCC champion Colin Turkington to name just a few.
The Inter, Junior and Senior classes provide a high-performance pathway that drivers can follow from age 10 upwards giving great value racing.
The classes are powered by the TKM BT82 engine made by Tal-Ko, the only kart race engine manufacturer in the UK. The engines are strictly controlled to ensure minimum tuning, most using the latest TAG (touch and go) technology. Maxxis slick and wet tyres provide the grip.
As the UK’s longest running class, TKM is proud to be part of the British Kart Championships and enjoys the added prestige given to the TKM championship titles.

Age 12 - 15
Nominations are:
Honda Cadet – Ashley Haase
With the season now done, and a season of consistent results, Haase has been a driver who has improved the most since last year, not only with great results, but clean results too.
After a great qualifying, tough heats, Ashley would fight to finish P3 in the pre final and P4 in the Final. But most importantly finishing 5th in his second year in the championship.
Micro Max – Jenson Chalk
After a superb, clean and consistent race weekend Jenson Chalk takes the spot for MicroMax.
A close qualifying saw him start P4 matching the time of P3 driver Harry Taylor. With challenging heats, and a comeback in the pre final, Chalk would fight hard to finish on the podium in the final.
Mini Max – Harry Freeman
Talk about an up and down weekend, but for Harry his final would be an up.
After qualifying in P9, Freemans weekend would start to turn in to a undulating roller-coaster of ups and downs. With heat one dropping to P20 and heat two holding on to P9.
The prefinal would continue the downward trend, but come the final Freeman would gain 9 places to finish in the top 15 just 6 seconds behind the leader.
Junior Rotax – Leon Hastie
What a weekend for this young man, after qualifying P10 overall he would have his best weekend of the season.
With a great fight in the heats and gaining two places in the pre final, Hastie would finish just 0.27 seconds behind the nearly unchallenged Bishop to secure his first podium finish this season.
Senior Rotax – Kai Hunter
Not only a near perfect weekend, but finally a senior champion.
When a great weekend was needed most, Hunter delivered, and delivered well. With the weight of the championship resting on his shoulders Kai’s performance showed why he became champion.
With pole in qualifying, two heat wins, second in the pre final and a superb drive in the final he stood on the top spot a final winner and a champion.
