KSKT is just one of three Manufactures that sell the SK cars. These are 1/10 scale duplicates of the full size car that raced at local tracks here in the NE. You can find more information at our track website http://turn4rc.samsbiz.com
or you could check out Hobbytalk.com and check under rc oval racing/product support and check out KSKT there. Or there web site is www.KSKTS.com. I hope this helps you find what your looking for. These cars are a TON of fun. Any other questions i could help with dont hesitate to ask.

Hobbytalk.com in the R/C Oval(Oval Spec) thread has alot of info on this car.
I had a Solid Ksk last winter. They are a Blast to Drive.
No one in the area was interested because it was going to be a another to stick money.
I would love to run one again!

Default sk kits

Thank you guys very much. I would have responded earlier but I was checking out all the info on HobbyTalk about this car and a few others like it. The SK seems to a bit pricey! It would be a great spec class but the cost has to be controlled somewhat. Bolink would have built this for around $100.00 or so with tires and body. These modified cars remind me of what we used to do to legend cars.... Thanks again, Big Jim

I'll have to agree with the cost factor. That's why we developed a spec class for these cars at our track. We run either the KSK solid chassis kit(conversion kit sells for less than $100) or the Original Beefy Products Excaliber Spec Car which sells for $150.00 as a full kit(minus tires and electronics). We run the Trinity 1600 spec packs and a handout motor that I maintain at the track, Spec tires, and a spur gear rule. It leads to some very exciting racing. If you'd care for any further information you could give me a call anytime during the day(Eastern Time) at 1-860-684-4500.

Hello, I just came across this post and wanted to comment on it.
I am the owner of KSKT Racing Products Ken Kerttula

We have recently reduced the cost of our solid SK kits just to let you know which is the best way to get into running SK cars if your interested, for many reasons, easy to adjust, cheap but fun as all hell.
I realize the cost is higher than what Bolink could or could have done but I am a small time company and take pride in providing the best quality parts in my reach.
I originally had NO plans to sell this car to the public, I simply just wanted to run my own car because I was unhappy with the current team I was racing for, because my car ran so well "the KSKT" it took off and I would say every time my race team now shows up to a race its hard to beat, 90% of the racers now have my cars and it continues to grow even in the down season of carpet racing. The SK cars pretty much originated out of my area "CT" I have/had a big personal interest rather than a Money interest, its expensive to produce a full roller with out compromising the parts that make it fast and reliable, race proven and best of all I back up my products with wins,tqs and TR's, We have new products coming out soon so check back to the site often www.kskts.com we have a little bit of everything there. Thanks for letting me post if you have any questions about the cars please ask away.

as far as the cost factor we have been running x caliber spec cars for 2 seasons in Syracuse with 1600 spec packs and closed endbell motors (duratrax I think) and I think its the cheapest class I've ever raced, the tires don't wear the motors last and the batts need little care, speeds are less of course but its open wheel racing and all the racers use the same gear so its all about the drivers.
