Passionate about two-stroke racing mecahnics, Claudio Flenghi was the instigator of the engines that have been so successful in karting. His philosophy consisted of designing and homologating the best possible engines to serve as a basis for the tuners who then made them triumph in competition. Underneath his public discretion and legendary humility in the face of success, Claudio Flenghi was nonetheless a formidable competitor, both on the track and in business. He always strove to do better, not only than others, but above all, than himself. His son Filippo and his faithful technician Franco Drudi, who have been trained in the most successful way, will now be in charge of building on the legacy of their mentor.
The CIK-FIA extends its sincere condolences to his family and his many friends.
