Sizing questions

I am looking to get my son into karting as he is getting interested in the sport. He just turned 5 last month and stands a mere 38" tall(wears size 4T/4 clothing). Can he fit into a junior chassis with some pedal extenders? I've found a sweet deal on a junior chassis but I''m afraid it'll be too big and should look for a kid kart(which i've also found but more expensive).


Thanks
 
Yes both the junior chassis and kid kart are legal for our local karting track, just trying to decide if he can fit into the junior chassis already with extenders so he can stay in the chassis longer or go with the kid kart if its impossible for him to get into a junior kart due to size
 
When you say junior do you mean cadet ?
Sprint or oval .
There are not many actual junior size oval chassis .
 
Ok here's what I come up with . Unscientific results . The cadet biesse is 21" from pedal pivot to the front steering cross bar in the short position . Sprint kart .
My 0-12 oval kart is 22" . the old Coyote is surprisingly 27 "
