    THE IAME PARILLA LEOPARD ENGINE IS LIKE "NO OTHER" IN THE KARTING WORLD...


    It has been developed as a real race engine with the reliability and durability of a recreational engine. This gives karters the best of both worlds - True race engine performance and tuneability along with long periods between major rebuilds, allowing maximum enjoyment from karting.   Items such as the solid billet conrod, high quality metals and precision castings and machining ensures optimum performance and reliability.

    Being watercooled not only extends the engine's life, but also improves performance and reduces noise.

    The integrated generator charges the battery while the engine is in use, meaning an end to the tiresome task of constantly recharging batteries, while KEY starting brings to an end the dangerous task of push-starting karts.

    The centrifugal clutch not only allows the kart to be driven away from a standstill, but also allows drivers to rejoin the track or continue after a spin or other off-track experience.

    The LEOPARD CLASS has taken off across Australia, with drivers racing in every state at every level from CLUB RACING through to STATE TITLES and AUSTRALIAN NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS.

    Being able to race straight 'out-of-the-box' means that there is no 'blueprinting' and fancy engine building or tuning required.   You really do simply bolt the engine onto a kart and go racing.   It also means that the class has a level playing field for all competitors.

    The 2009 NATIONAL LEOPARD CHALLENGE allows drivers across Australia to compete in a true NATIONAL CHALLENGE with REAL rewards, A BRAND NEW TOYOTA CAR will be given away by 'RANDOM DRAW' this year, trips to compete at the IAME 125 World Final in Italy and IAME Leopard engines are among just 'some' of the great prizes on offer to ALL competitors, not just the race winners. HUGE prizes down to 20th place will be given away at the 2009 LEOPARD FINAL SHOOTOUT!! There are test drives, driver tuitions, engine and kart packages to be won and random price draws down to the minor placings.

    30/03/09 Many people ask how the life of their Leopard engine can be prolonged. Here is the genuine IAME FACTORY DYNO POWER CURVE and TORQUE CURVE, which clearly shows its maximum power and torque is made between 10,000 and 12,000 rpm. There is no need to rev the engine beyond mid-15,000rpm, and this is one of the main reasons behind the introduction of the Rev Limiter (see Latest News for more details).
