### Major Safety Warning and Penalty If Caught. ###
Running the aftermarket cam can get these engines into a danger zone. We encourage all racers to keep their RPM's at 6200 and below. Dyno testing has shown that theres no additional power above these rpm's as long as the rest of the engine is in correspondance with the rest of the above rules..
Anyone caught reving Clone engines on the kart stand or under no load will be warned the first time and asked to leave the track on the second occurance. This is for the life of the season.. Coleridge Raceway will not be responsible for any injuries occuring from these Clone engines. The racer assumes all responsibilites.
