Hi guys,
I have raced INEX legends cars for the past 5 years but recently sold it all and am looking to get into oval dirt track karting. Something me and my 7 year old son can enjoy together with lower cost and much closer to home. ( dirt karting track 30 minutes from me)
Have a few beginner questions....
I’m trying to keep the cost as low and reasonable as possible, which is what makes the predator classes appealing to me. 100 otb bolt on engine vs 700 to 1000 built clones. Big difference there. But.... are racing the predators that anemic compared to a clone? Aka are they that much slower feeling to race?
How many races on a built clone before refresh needed? How many races average on a otb predator?
Any info appreciated...thnx!

Have a few beginner questions....
- What is the biggest difference in racing clone vs OTB predator? just Cost? Feeling while racing on the track?
- Can a 7 year old race predator classes or do I need/ have to start him off in a red plate clone?
- I’m 38, 6ft, 260 lbs. What class should I look into racing? Predator 425? Clone 450? Sr stock?
