| EKN 2011 Chassis Preview Editorial Series: CRG |
| |
The EKN 2011 Chassis Preview Editorial Series was designed during this off-season to provide the karting community with a unique opportunity to become informed of the most popular and successful brands available in the North American market, all from the warmth of their home computers or mobile devices. The karting industry is by no means short on options regarding chassis selection, and our goal with this article series is to help narrow down your choices while educating the community on what exactly is offered by each manufacturer and its United States or Canadian importer/distributor.

CRG is among the leaders in karting technology and innovation. With 11 world karting championships highlighting a long list of other titles, the CRG is a highly-coveted chassis.

Five national championships in KZ and KF competition have come over the course of the last four seasons, thanks to drivers Gary Carlton, Mike Vincec and Arie Ouimet, and with help from others, the brand also earned the EKN Constructors’ Championship in 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2008.
