so I have been in kart racing over 20 years and still doing it now, but it seems to be getting a little out of hand at least for the simple man. there are late model drivers getting busted for their tires a lot right now but we can soak ours with prep, just a money making thing to me I wish they would do away with, there are big car races that pay 10,000 but karts that pay 50,000 and karts will cost nearly what big cars cost before long and its not just the cost of the kart but the cost to compete now days with the tires you have to have and the days of building your own motor and being competitive is about none I just see kart racing like everything else going to the big money grip people and we are left with the little back yard tracks just for fun and have to have a SA motor to run stock classes because they cheat so much-----ok I feel better now
