IKD teams up with Karting legend Jon Targett for OTK project
IKD - International Karting Distributors is pleased to publicly announce our cooperation agreement with Karting guru Jon Targett #JTMOTORSPORT. Jon and IKD owner Ian Black have been friends for decades and they are both excited to finally work together on this project. Jon has a ton of experience both here and in Europe and will be very beneficial to the OTK project overall.
“When I informed Mr. Robazzi (owner of #OTK) that we had Jon onboard, he was very excited. He has known Jon a long time as well and respects his knowledge and feedback” said Ian Black. “Mr Robazzi does not hand out compliments easily so to get this endorsement from him says a lot” added Ian.
Jon's role will be to attend race events and be available to support all OTK owners.

Jon will steer the direction of OTK in terms of kart setup and also provide feedback to the OTK factory to ensure that the karts that come to Australia continue to be perfectly suited to our needs.
“Many people lose their way and overcomplicate things when it comes to kart setup, I have always believed in the principle of keeping it simple and telling people what they need to know rather than what they would like to hear.

I was very encouraged with what I saw on the weekend at the first round of the Australian Kart Championship. We had very strong performances in KA3 Junior, TAG, X30 and KZ, track speed is there. We had a bunch of heat wins and a few podiums, we just need to fine tune things and have a bit of luck go our way. It will be a lot of fun and I am looking forward to it” added Jon.
Exciting times ahead for OTK here in Australia!
