01.25.10 - 2010 TAGUSA Rules Released

2010 TAG™ RACING INTERNATIONAL / TAG™USA RULES AND REGULATIONS ARE NOW POSTED TO THE  WWW.TAGRACING.NET WEBSITE.

Antioch, Illinois -- TAGUSA™ would like to announce some rule changes. As you know, last year IAME-only classes were added. The 2010 rules have these classes more defined. This year’s classes include Cadet, Junior 2, Junior and Senior. Over the past year we have worked closely with the manufacturer and the importers to come to a point of quality that will bring IAME products to a level that will benefit the consumer.

This year, after they were introduced at the 2009 TAG World Championships, we have now added the Mini Max, the KF category and more Stock Moto classes.

We have also updated our TAG Stock Moto rules to include 1997-1999-and 2000-2002 engines also a Junior and a Heavy Class.

The following statement has been added as clarification has to what TAGUSA is based on:
Please note that TAG™ Racing International / TAG™ USA Classes and rules are designed as a picking list to help enhance your racing events and series programs.  All sanctioning bodies, clubs and event promoters should use these class structures and rules as written to their benefit and pick and choose the classes within our structure that best help perpetuate participation and growth within their racing programs.

Some classes and engine packages have also been moved to the archives;
TAG ICC class, also the Comer 60, Maxter 60, WTP 60, and the Cheetah 125 have all been deregulated for 2010. The technical specifications are still available in the archive section for clubs and tracks to utilize if they have participation of these packages in their area although these engines and classes will not be offered at the 2010 TAG World Championships

The goals for 2010 are simple -- clean things up and continue to provide a stable platform for growth, give added value to the karter.

TAGUSA will be announcing the new 2010 race season and the TAG world championships over the next few months. TAG Racing president Mr. Dave Larson has been working on new programs for 2010; with this comes more value for the consumer.
