"I suggest you read it again."

You clearly misunderstand what I have said.

The word 'where' suggests a hypothesis, ie why race outside the white lines when /if the white lines define the racing surface.

Then one goes back to the definition of "track" which states that the track is defined as being within the limits described in the track licence, which on a sealed surface, as in karting, would be the continuous or dotted white lines painted on the surface.

And of course, one then can then debate the reason for painting the white lines. Is it to define the racing surface, or is it merely to prevent provide an excuse for saying that there is no illegal drop off between the edge of the track and the surface bordering the edge of the track, even if there's a rain gully 18 inches further on. It would seem sense that it was intended to mark the bit of the track one is meant to race on.

One might further ask why, if the kerbs are meant to be raced on, they are so often inimicable to safe racing, being designed to slow karts down.

The situation is not black and white and the rules quite possibly don't say what they are intended to mean. That is what the debate is about.
