4 AREAS. 3 ITALIAN CHAMPIONSHIP RACES. 2 GREAT FINALS.
NOTHING IS MISSING FROM THE ROK CUP 2019

The ROK Cup is now one of the most important series in the karting scene, firmly in the cornerstones of a stable regulation and tested over the years, but not without news to increasingly meet the demands of fans.

2019 confirms the main territorial subdivision in 4 groups: North, Center, South and Sicily. A way to give everyone the opportunity to race in a championship with limited trips that no longer take up the space of a weekend.
On the other hand, the Italian ACI-ROK Championships rounds have dropped, from 5 in 2018 to 3 in 2019. This decision was made to make the approach to such an important championship less demanding and to widen the participation of the ” Rokker “.

In addition, there will also be single-race events that are now one of the “trademarks” of the ROK Cup and record very high participation numbers. The ROK Cup Italia will be the key event on a national level, while the International ROK Final will be, as always, the peak of an intense season full of possibilities for everyone.

The great availability of races gives enthusiasts of all levels and all ages the opportunity to compete, choosing the most suitable category from the 6 ones that race on the track in the ROK Cup (using 4 different types of engine): Mini ROK; Junior ROK; Senior ROK; ROK Expert; Super ROK; Shifter ROK.

ROK

“COVERS” ALL CATEGORIES

Mini, Junior, Direct drive or Shifter: there is a kart for all tastes

IT’S FOR ALL AGES

From the Kid to the Senior, the right karts for every period of life

IT’S OPEN CLASS

The engine is ROK, the chassis choice is up to you. It can also be one that you already have, as long as it is homologated!

IT’S EASY

It offers all the practicality and reliability of the float chamber carburetor

ASSISTANCE IS WIDESPREAD

ROK Centers are all over the territory. And the ROK truck is always at the racetrack

COMMUNICATION TO ALL LEVELS

Local, national, international website … 360 ° communication!

THE FASTEST ONE-MAKE

We can beat the comparable categories in terms of lap times

ALL ENGINES ARE EQUAL

The first 93 drivers in 1 sec? It happened (Mini ROK qualifying heats. ROK International Final 2017)! And it means that the engines are all the same

Others

If the Mini category is missing in a championship, for example, fathers and children who both race do not optimize their travel expenses

Not all championships offer a full range of categories for all drivers. Sometimes the shifter is missing, other times the mini…

In some series chassis and engines are specified. So, if you have an old chassis in your box, even if homologated, it can not be used!

Stay away from championships that use diaphgram carburetors. It’s a hassle to regulate them. And if you make a mistake…it can ruin your week-end!

You often have to do many miles to find an official distributor if you need assistance.

Racing is already fun enough, of course. But it is also nice to find regulations and race results easily. Which often does not happen.

Often “one-make” is synonymous with poor performance compared to real karts.

It may be the case that you have to buy different engines before you find the right one.

KART FOR EVERYONE
In the ROK world there is room for everyone: experts and beginners, fathers and sons, kart lovers and single-gear lovers

FOR ALL AGES

Karting is a sport that you start practicing as a child and do not give up anymore. It is one of the beauties of this discipline and the ROK Cup makes it possible to exploit it fully, making grandparents, fathers, mothers, children and grandchildren compete together on the same weekends. From the youngest at the first experience at the wheel, to the most “navigated” who still pursue the thrill of a kart ride at full speed. Different ages, but with a common passion.

FOR ALL DRIVING LEVELS

Whether you start from home with just a helmet and a lot of curiosity, or that you already know how to move with the skills of an experienced rider, ROK Cup is the reality for you. The widespread organization offers appointments almost every weekend, reachable with short trips within your region or a little further. If, instead, you are looking for something more challenging, the Italian Championship and the National Final are at your fingertips. But it’s not over, because with the International Final (in Italy, in October), the Las Vegas race, the Florida Winter Tour, the ROK Cup Asia Final, there’s no shortage of world-class stages.

FOR ALL CATEGORIES

A range of 4 engines to satisfy everyone’s tastes and needs. The Mini allows youngsters to become familiar with the kart, continuing, then, the training in the Junior ROK class, which uses the ROK GP engine. The same engine, but without the restrictor, meets the needs of the Senior ROK drivers (and Expert ROK for the over 32), while the DVS engine completes the path of those who, in the Super ROK, points towards the most extreme performances. And for those who can not give up the thrill of karting with gears, the ROK Shifter is the answer.

SINGLE MAKE WITH REAL RACING PERFORMANCES
In general, single make karts do not have the same performance as racing karts. ROK engines, however, manage to combine the reliability of a single make and the performance of a real racing engine. How?
GIF_CIRCUITO_1070x915
1 The ROK engines are made by Vortex, a company at the top of international karting for over 20 years and winner of several world titles
2 Often the single make engines, in order to curb development costs, are based on an old technical concept. The ROK project, on the other hand, is based on a last generation concept!
3 A concrete example of the performance of ROK engines? The ROK Shifter is strictly derived from the Vortex RKZ, the 2018 world champion of the geared karts.
4 The lap times are a demonstration of the good performance of the ROK engines: compared to other single make series, for example, the senior class runs on average half a second faster.
5 In order for an engine to be performing, but also reliable, it must be made with the most advanced technologies, as is the case with Vortex.
