Karts are equipped with an electric starter and a centrifugal clutch. The engine rpm is limited at 15,000 rpm. It is one of the highest kart classes and is run in both national and continental championships, with the most prestigious being the European Championship and World Cup.

In 2010, karts of the KF2 category were mandated in the Karting World Championship.^[1]

In 2016, the class was renamed OK, standing for the new Original Kart class. The new karts had much of the electronics removed, and had to push-started.
