The CIK-FIA’s mission is to implement international categories which can very well lie within the scope of national or even regional competitions.
The CIK-FIA has always chosen to govern categories for Drivers who are old enough to subscribe an international licence (minimum required age: 13 years old). The management of any classes below is left up to the ASNs. The CIK-FIA categories are divided into three large families: direct-drive karts, gearbox karts and Superkarts. All these karts have in common the 2-stroke engine technology.
Although it has not yet introduced them into its own range of categories, the CIK-FIA nonetheless closely follows with a possible direct interest for future years any private initiatives involving the introduction of new technologies in Karting, such as 4-stroke or electric engines.
