Released | KartSim Tillotson T4 Series

New content!

Great news for those in the community who look forward to racing in its purest of forms – today we are pleased to be able to bring to you the latest new machine from our expanding KartSim offering – the Tillotson T4 Series.

The Kart Introduced in 2019 as a cost-effective entry level motorsport series for drivers new on the kart racing development ladder, the Tillotson T4 Series boasts an impressive 225cc Tillotson 225RS four-stroke racing engine, HW diaphragm carburettor, series specific tyres and a maximum rev limit of 6,500 rpm from the TPP-225RS engine.

The kart runs on the European designed and built T4-C1 chassis, using many parts common with the much more expensive CIK karts, but with key design decisions introduced in order to ensure costs are kept to a minimum, and the karts themselves remain accessible to new and inexperienced drivers.

Capacity: 225cc 4 Stroke Power: 15HP Engine Weight: 17 kg

Overall weight 69 kg to reduce fuel consumption and provide a more nimble driving experience PVL Digital Ignition limited to 6,500rpm Tillotson HW Series carburettor calibrated for the TPP-225RS engine Engine is sealed, so no tuning is permitted—only adjustment to the valve clearance is allowed Up to 30 hours engine life without maintenance Billet CNC machined connecting rod/flywheel for improved strength and reliability New design Tillotson crankcase with extra support for the higher power output Despite having been built with a view to offering drivers a cost-effective and easy maintenance point of entry into the world of racing, the Tillotson T4 Series still produces incredibly lively performance that shares many driving characteristics with more established categories. Drivers will have to work hard to keep up the minimum speed in these karts, and nothing but full concentration will do in order to run at the very sharp end of the grid – which we believe makes for a great combination to go racing with!
