WSK World Series starts in Portimao, Portugal, and Kosmic Kart Racing Department takes the field fresh out of the title conquered during the WSK Euro Series, heartened by great technical material in hand.
Our Racing Department, led by Olivier Marechal, will line up for all the 3 rounds Mercury chassis (frame pipe diameter Ø 30mm ) and Lynx chassis (frame pipe diameter Ø 32mm ). Engines will be the well known and successful Vortex, RAD for KF category and RVXX for KZ2.
The team will be on the track on the occasion of the first event, at Algarve international circuit with a drivers’ line-up which includes also Alex Loan Ventura in KZ2 category.
After the top performances shown during the winning Euro Series Championship in SKF category with Armand Convers and with Kosmic Kart Racing Department, Euro Cup Champion in the same top class, the team is very enthusiastic and wishes a lot to confirm itself at the highest level.
The WSK World Series will divide in two the World sporting scene as during the same week end in Portimao, also the WTCC, World Touring Car Championship, will see its fifth trial only a few meters far, sharing the same WSK Series’ paddock area.

PROTAGONISTS’ OPINIONS
Olivier Marechal - Kosmic Kart Racing Department’s Team Manager:
“Algarve Circuit is a new one for everybody. It will be very hot and we will have to work fast to optimize the set-up of all our drivers, in all categories.
We have front-rank technical material and this surely is a very good starting point but…. We are aware that on sporting basis we will have to start again from scratch. The WSK Euro title has been stored already”.
