In almost all national markets, the 2026 karting season is already getting underway. It has also had an international prologue with the first WSK meetings, before entering the heart of the season with the FIA Karting championships.
 

The CRG Racing range chassis are once again preparing to play a leading role after winning dozens of national championships last year, both in Shifter (KZ) categories and in direct-drive classes, including the Mini categories. CRG partner teams excelled across all classes, securing prestigious titles from Brazil to France, from Northern Europe to the Emirates.
 

For the 2026 Racing range, CRG has worked with a philosophy of continuity, introducing only small updates derived from experience and know-how developed by its racing department, as well as from specific feedback collected based on the tyres used in individual national championships and in the main international one-make trophies.
 

In the Shifter categories, two options are confirmed: the Road Rebel chassis with 32 mm tubing, and the KZ version of the KT2 model built with 30 mm tubing. In the direct-drive categories, the KT2 chassis with 30 mm tubing is confirmed as the benchmark across all classes, with the KT4 model as the main alternative. The KT4 features a different frame design and a mixed use of 30 mm and 32 mm tubing, a configuration that guarantees higher overall grip.
 

All Racing range chassis are equipped with top-of-the-line components, including the VEN 11b braking system and magnesium wheels, as well as a replica sticker kit of the official CRG Racing Team chassis. To make the right choice of the most suitable chassis for the category to be competed in, it is always useful to seek advice from your trusted dealer or a CRG partner team. To properly exploit the technical potential of a chassis, it is also very helpful to understand the main setup options and how some alternative axles work compared to the standard M model (medium hardness) supplied as standard. For a general guideline, it is important to know which tyres are predominantly used and the type of track raced on, because circuit grip is a decisive factor influencing setup choices and, in extreme cases, even which chassis is best suited to a specific track.
 

A special mention among the 2026 CRG chassis goes to the TGroup Black Mirror model dedicated to the MINI categories, which has won dozens of titles and has also impressed with its performance and versatility in WSK races. This chassis represents the entry point into international karting for many young drivers, and to make it effective CRG focused heavily on two key aspects: on one hand, ease of management through a base setup that adapts to any type of circuit, and on the other, particular attention to ease of driving to provide maximum feeling for young drivers.
