I might have been a bit terse not pointing this out, so I think you
missed the 90% of my mail which consisted of a list of what karting is

MSA UK also uses "K"

Here you have the top 8 from wikipedia again.
[[bg:Картинг]]
[[ca:Kart]]
[[cs:Motokára]]
[[da:Gokart]]
[[de:Kartsport]]
[[en:Kart racing]]
[[es:Karting]]
[[eu:Karting]]
