CS55 ROOKIE
 
DOUBLE PROPOSAL
OTK Kart Group, thanks to the development carried out by its R&D department, doubles the proposal of CS55 Kart chassis for the International Mini CIK-FIA category. The new version EVS comes alongside the well-known version EVH. The EVS version has renewed frame and geometries which prefer the use of tires with “softer” compound. The versions range expands further in 2024 with the introduction of the EVM, a direct evolution of the EVS.
 
EVH, EVS and EVM versions
YOU CHOOSE
If 2020, year of the first homologation dedicated to the new international Mini CIK-FIA category, was the occasion for the launch of the first CS55 Rookie, today, after two years of studies, feedback and developments, carried out by the constant development work of the OTK Kart Group R&D department, the Rookie grows in two versions: EVH, specific for the use of hard tyres, and EVS, reserved to "soft" tyres. The year 2024 marks the entry in the market of another version of the Rookie, the EVM. This is a direct evolution of the EVS; therefore, it is always suitable for "soft" tyres.
 
Reserved for everybody
EASY AND FAST
The design of the Rookie EVH, EVS and EVM chassis is the result of the experience gained on track in the most prestigious international competitions and of the OTK Kart Group's relentless research and development. The main target? To combine two fundamental elements, especially for the younger drivers to whom the Rookie is aimed: to guarantee the maximum performance combined with simple and immediate set-up. These features were already available in the first version 2020. They have been renewed and amplified over time with the EVH, EVS and EVM versions.
 
BSM5 Warranty
NEW FLOATING DISC
A well-tested braking system capable of tackling the world’s most prestigious race tracks, such as the BSM5 of the CS55 Rookie, which confirms itself and is updated thanks to a new floating disc. The choice of the materials for this system, which features automatic recovery of the pedal stroke to minimise pad wear, aims in being reliable and long-lasting. The components in Ergal (a material of excellent resistance), including the pump, undergo a hard oxidation treatment to obtain a significant surface hardness to prevent wear. Moreover, the brake line are with outer cover stainless steel braid PTFE, aeronautical type.
 
Driver-friendly
THE CHASSIS FOR GROWTH
The adjustable footrests and a pedal attachment system that allows the set-up of a rudder pedal are essential elements for drivers at an age when even a few months can lead to substantial growth in height. For this reason the Rookie EVH, EVS and EVM have all the useful systems to guarantee a high adaptability of the vehicle to its driver and a steering wheel specially designed for the small hands of drivers in the Mini category, together with the inclined steering wheel hub. All the technical details are the result of an automated production process that uses materials capable of guaranteeing high quality standards and maximum reproducibility of each product.
 
Aerodynamic efficiency
FAIRINGS: AESTHETICS AND PERFORMANCE
In such a category where it is often the thousandths that separate victory from defeat, nothing can be left to chance. The innovative M8 fairing kit combines aesthetics with a high level of aerodynamic efficiency, which has been proven thanks to outstanding results in the top categories and wind tunnel studies carried out by the OTK Kart Group R&D department. The number plate spoiler, now in black plastic, further reduces aerodynamic resistance and has a positive effect on performance.
