ALL THE DETAILS (AND SECRETS) OF THE KART REPUBLIC KR1 POWERED BY IAME SCREAMER IV KZ 2023 WORLD CHAMPION IN WACKERSDORF

2023 was a year full of international successes for Kart Republic. In fact, the chassis of the brand founded by Dino Chiesa in 2017 achieved several victories in the most important competitions (FIA Karting and WSK), both in the Shifter and Direct Drive classes. However, without a shadow of a doubt the peak of the racing season was reached in Wackersdorf (Germany), where the KR Motorsport factory team, thanks to Paolo Ippolito, managed to win, for the first time in its still short history, the most important title of all for shifter karts: the KZ FIA Karting World Championship. The championship was held in a single round, from 7 to 10 September, on the Prokart Raceland circuit (Germany) and was characterised by sunny and breezy days with rather warm temperatures, with peaks of about 29°C.

Thanks to the photographic contributions and information "stolen" directly on the track by TKART, immediately after the final, we closely analyse every aspect (and all the details) of the KZ 2023 KZ World Champion Kart KR1 chassis. Revealing the set-ups used during the race weekend, the components selected and the choices that allowed KR Motorsport and Paolo Ippolito to win the world title.
