KEEP YOUR KART COOL
Shockwave Karting’s radiators are manufactured by Innovative Radiator Systems and present a giant leap forward in the evolution of karting engine cooling systems. With a special cross-finned interior pattern, the IRS radiator provides significantly more surface area than a traditional radiator and thus, greatly improved cooling performance. The hose connection ports are specifically located to aid in the routing of water lines, and the inclusion of a drain plug in the bottom of the radiator allows for easy removal of water for cold nights. Radiators are available in three different sizes to suit any application. Contact Colorado-based Shockwave Karting at 1-800-608-3457 or 303-781-7825.

NEW AIRBOX — A NEW STANDARD
New from KG; the eagerly anticipated airbox finally shows its face and creates quite a shock with its new appearance. The new high tech look is not only more stylish than its predecessor, but serves a few technical advantages as well. It has an integrated air filter system and a thick sound absorbent lining. The addition of the new filter showed no drop in performance during the dyno test and track testing, and it proved to be quite the contrary.
