SKUSA has a junior class for 60cc shifters (9-13) and one for 80cc shifters
(13-15)

I think it would be great if Jr. Kart was a paxed class with six categories
(each with it's own index):
60cc shifter (9-13 per SKUSA)
80cc shifter (13-15 per SKUSA)
2-cycle (8-11)
2-cycle (12-15)
4-cycle (8-11)
4-cycle (12-15)
For the 2 and 4 cycle classes we could take class names from the IKF, WKA,
KART (and any others) and put them in the rulebook like we do for different
types of cars. This type of system would allow families to be involved in
both kart racing and Solo II, without having to change the kart for each.
Additionally, it would not add another class, although there would be some
added complexity in the timing program.
