Glad to have finally found a good forum for the karting world!
Id liketto start off with a little bit of a back story. My dad was heavily involved in karting from 89-97, and quit when I was 3. I cantremember a time when I brought up gokarts and he didn’t phase out thinking and reminiscing on the good times he had and his karts. I got heavily involved with giant scale aerobatic model airplanes at the age of 14, and my dad doesnt know too much about that world, but he enjoys to watch the contests etc. They run on a single cyl 50cc 2 stroke, all the way up to a 200cc flat quad 2stroke gas engines, weighing up to 40lbs in flying weight. I must say, its alot of fun, will always be a part of me, but contests are slowing down, and its not really a good bonding for the pops and I. I told my dad I had been researching karts and I saw the biggest smile on his face. We searched the internet for hours him and I. He was quite an accomplished driver, and how convenient is it to have him as a dad!
So, on to my question. Where do I want to start? What class, what are some chassis makes, engine names, clubs, anything. I’m quite stoked about all this, looking farward to hearing from some of you, thanks in advance!
Ps. If you arw interested in sseeing what the flying is all about, heres a link to my 3rd flight on my new 100cc flat twin 35% scale extra 300! Love the smell and sound! Hanger 9 Extra 300 Throwdown with Tomas Simatovic!: http://youtu.be/xgVO-U1YenY
