THE EVOLUTION<br />

OF PASSION


THE FACTORY automation of the various production<br />

Tony <strong>Kart</strong> was founded in 1958 and was<br />

one of the first companies to follow the<br />

American fashion of karting, forming a<br />

craftsmen production of chassis for karts.<br />

In 1983, with the entry of new management,<br />

a radical change took place within the<br />

company which, thanks to new investments<br />

in research and production cycles, its image<br />

was continually reinforced, rapidly coming<br />

into the limelight of the World karting<br />

scenario.<br />

The help of specialised personnel and the<br />

phases certainly enabled the leap forward<br />

in quality and could guarantee a continual<br />

development process. Machinery governed<br />

by sophisticated software, guarantee<br />

product standardisation. Special robots<br />

carry out welding operations on all the<br />

different points of the body without having<br />

to remove it from die plane, thus reducing<br />

the margin of error to a minimum.<br />

In order to be able to propose chassis<br />

which are always cutting edge and<br />

competitive, Tony <strong>Kart</strong> dedicates enormous<br />

care and importance to the study of new<br />

solutions and to research into the latest<br />

technology.<br />

And it is exactly the avant-garde from the<br />

design and technological points of view,<br />

which represent the essence and<br />

characteristic of Tony <strong>Kart</strong>, perfectly in<br />

line with the conception of a modern<br />

company, where every decision is backed<br />

by a careful marketing study.<br />

Nothing in fact is left to chance and the<br />

investments put into developing new<br />

methods of communication, such as<br />

internet and e-commerce, have guaranteed


the widening and optimisation of the<br />

distribution network, which over the last ten<br />

years has strengthened, so much so as to<br />

be present in 60 Countries in the world.<br />

After 20 years, the long experience, the<br />

passion for this work and intense<br />

research, determine more and more<br />

advanced technological choices and the<br />

need to install new machines.<br />

Consequently Tony <strong>Kart</strong> is increasing its<br />

personnel and its structure, moving into a<br />

new factory. This innovative, functional and<br />

avant-garde premises, besides offering<br />

high level services and assistance, is in a<br />

position to guarantee excellent final<br />

product quality.<br />

Evolution: this is what hallmarks Tony <strong>Kart</strong><br />

from every point of view.


BEGINN<strong>ING</strong> TO RACE<br />

<strong>Kart</strong>ing is considered the “cradle” of motor sports, the first approach to the<br />

world of four wheels and in many cases it can be the springboard to the<br />

higher levels of car racing.<br />

In fact this discipline enables the drivers to develop experience from a very<br />

young age, forming a healthy competitive spirit. If you have already understood<br />

that this is your passion, throw yourselves into it to enjoy the experience,<br />

because it is never too early or too late to enjoy the emotion of going<br />

around the track.<br />

MICRO<br />

It is possible to begin at<br />

7 years of age on<br />

the lovely little<br />

Micro, a small<br />

kart designed<br />

and tested especially<br />

to introduce small<br />

children to the motoring<br />

world and to transform in this way, a<br />

game into a passion.<br />

The Micro has a 50cc engine and a mechanical<br />

braking system.<br />

ROCKY<br />

At nine years of age you move up to the Mini <strong>Kart</strong>, the entry level to the world of racing,<br />

the first machine you can<br />

use to participate in<br />

real competitions.<br />

For this category,<br />

Tony <strong>Kart</strong>, recommends<br />

the Rocky chassis.<br />

It is registered on a national level and<br />

has a 60cc engine with the choice of<br />

either an hydraulic or mechanical braking system.


PRINT<br />

SPRINT<br />

The first step in the sprint class, using a gearless engine, can be taken at<br />

the age of 13 in the Junior category.<br />

The drivers begin to show their driving skills, taking part in the first<br />

international races, and then moving on to ICA at the age of 15. The higher<br />

levels, FA and FSA, represent a further step forward<br />

and the highest expression of the class, where soft<br />

tyres are used which allow high level<br />

performance. The majority of drivers<br />

in the international motor racing field,<br />

including many Formula 1<br />

drivers, have raced in these<br />

categories, winning many<br />

and important titles.<br />

VENOX SPRINT<br />

The Venox chassis is suitable for soft tyres<br />

and is at the top of the Tony <strong>Kart</strong> range and<br />

cutting edge technology. The frame, with<br />

CrMo 30 to 32 mm diameter steel tubing,<br />

between two side members with varying<br />

30-32 mm diameters, results in a soft<br />

front carriage and a rigid rear axle. This<br />

particular technology, named B-TECH, has<br />

been used for the first time in the karting<br />

world. Like all the chassis in the Tony <strong>Kart</strong><br />

line, Venox can be supplied with ultra light<br />

components, such as magnesium; double<br />

circuit hydraulic brakes and bodyworks<br />

which comply with all the international<br />

federation standards.<br />

Particularly suitable<br />

for FA and FSA<br />

are the newly CIK<br />

homologated Tony<br />

<strong>Kart</strong> chassis:<br />

Venox and Krypton.<br />

• Homologation: CIK FIA 54/CH/08<br />

• Chassis CR-MO - Ø 30-32<br />

•B-TECH technology: bi-diametric tubing<br />

washers<br />

• Steering wheel covered in anti-slip material<br />

• Magnesium accessories<br />

KRYPTON SPRINT<br />

Krypton is more suitable for medium-soft<br />

tyres, with a chassis using only 32 mm<br />

tubing and, like all those in the latest Tony<br />

<strong>Kart</strong> range of chassis, is supplied with a<br />

rear and front removable torsion bars.<br />

• Homologation: CIK FIA 52/CH/08<br />

PRINT<br />

SPRINT<br />

RACER SPRINT<br />

Racer is a chassis whose frame has 30<br />

mm diameter tubing, a characteristic<br />

which makes it particularly suitable for<br />

those categories using medium-hard<br />

tyres.<br />

<strong>Kart</strong>ing however should not be looked at only from the extreme competition point of view,<br />

and therefore Tony <strong>Kart</strong> dedicates some of its products to a less demanding public, who<br />

practise this sport as a hobby.<br />

Here we have then, Eikon and Psylo, two chassis for those who like to drive with or without<br />

a gear box; provided with aluminium accessories and mono-pump brake.<br />

EIKON<br />

Realised using 30mm cross-section tubes and available with 40 or 30 mm diameter axle,<br />

Eikon is particularly suitable for use with medium- hard tyres.<br />

• Chassis CR-MO - Ø 30<br />

• Axle 40 Ø x 2mm thick<br />

• Hydraulic brake system<br />

• Rear brake disk self-ventilated<br />

•Front and rear chassis height<br />

accessories<br />

PSYLO<br />

More suitable for hard tyres, Psylo, is<br />

made using 28 mm diameter tubes.<br />

• Homologation: CIK FIA 53/CH/08<br />

• Chassis CR-MO - Ø 30mm<br />

• Axle 50 Ø x 2mm thick<br />

SHIFTER<br />

HIFTER<br />

The shifter is the category where performance of the karts is much higher.<br />

The engines, equipped with 6 speed gear boxes, are in fact capable of developing<br />

high power, while the chassis have<br />

brakes on the front carriage, in<br />

consideration of the high speed<br />

they are able to reach.<br />

The Tony <strong>Kart</strong> chassis for<br />

this class are the shifter<br />

versions of Venox and<br />

Krypton.<br />

In line with the characteristics<br />

of Tony <strong>Kart</strong> products,<br />

they are provided with,<br />

amongst other things, front<br />

and rear chassis height<br />

adjustment; adjustment of<br />

the caster with the proper<br />

eccentric washers and 50<br />

mm diameter axle. Venox<br />

and Krypton in the shifter<br />

version have magnesium<br />

accessories and front and<br />

rear removable torsion<br />

bars.<br />
