As abroad as in France, brands imported by TKF have regularly monopolized the podiums in all categories, from Minime to KZ. European Championship, WSK, Winter Cup, first FFSA national meetings, IAME, NSK or Stars of Karting events were all occasions for Tony Kart, Kosmic, Exprit and Vortex to demonstrate the extreme competitiveness of the equipment produced by the factory Italian. And in all conditions (dry, rain, strong grip or cool weather), thanks to the legendary versatility and ease of use of chassis. TKF takes the opportunity to thank all its dealers, who have participated in this list already very rich in 2019, while the season is just beginning.

International: 2 brilliant triplets in Junior at Angerville and Genk

On the grounds of Tony Kart France, the OTK chassis signed a resounding quinté in the order at the opening of the FIA ​​Karting European Championship in OK-Junior, with also a double podium for Vortex engines. In Angerville, Taponen (Redspeed) dominated the final ahead of Ten Brinke (FA Kart-Vortex), Day (Exprit-Vortex), Marti Sobrepera (Tony Kart-Vortex) and Ugochukwu (FA Kart-Vortex). With this result won by private teams, the OTK factory demonstrates its willingness to offer a chassis easily exploitable by all.

This plebiscite was completed by the Valtanen podium (Redspeed) in OK and by the performance, two weeks later at the German Grand Prix in Wackersdorf, from Matteo Vigano to the highest level of the KZ. Author of the pole position and winner of a round, the Italian placed himself as a candidate for the title of European Champion by placing his Tony Kart-Vortex on the 2nd step of the podium.

The Belgian Grand Prix at Genk confirmed these performances. Both Tony Kart Racing Team members, Bedrin and Dunne were 1st and 2nd of the Junior qualifying heats. A penalty deprived Bedrin of a podium, while Dunne continued his effort and reached the second step of the podium. With the victory of Amand on Kosmic and 3rd place of Ten Brinke on FA Kart, OTK celebrated a new triplet in this category. And OK, we found Beganovic (Tony Kart-Vortex) in 3rd position.
