I’m from NJ but I spent a day at DKC with Jake French wrenching for me. But, a tag chassis can be used for lo and vice versa.Īre there any other tracks within a 5 hour drive that are worth a look Nola and Dallas are on my radar as I have driven at both of them. It seems that the two closest tracks run different classes can I use one chassis and run the different engines or are there more differences? It’s not powerful enough to allow for sloppy driving.
#NOLA KIDS KART RACING HOW TO#
Regardless of field, starting out in 4 stroke will teach you how to drive well and efficiently. Anyways, winning is nice but having a field that kicks your butt is even better. But, most fields should have guys just like you in it so you will probably have folks to race against.
If you are up against only skinnies and there’s no weigh-in, that’s gonna be hard to overcome. I’m a big dude 280# will I be competitive with or should I use this as a way to sharpen my own driving skill for track work?ĭepends on field I would guess. It is certainly possible but there are some issues going from lo206 to 2 stroke as the engine mounts vary a bit. Lastly where in the world does one find kid sized safety gear in one place?Ĭan one buy one chassis and swap engines? When buying a used kart how does one know if it is set up for dirt(tires)/asphalt oval rather than sprints/road course? Junior karts are they able to grow as the kid gets bigger or is it like everything else they outgrow it and you build/buy a new one? Most importantly what should I be looking for in a kart for a 5 year old? One group runs a predator 3.5 horse class and the other group does the LO203 karts for the little guys. Can one buy one chassis and swap engines? I’m a big dude 280# will I be competitive with or should I use this as a way to sharpen my own driving skill for track work? It seems that the two closest tracks run different classes can Ouse one chassis and run the different engines or are there more differences? Are there any other tracks within a 5 hour drive that are worth a look Nola and Dallas are on my radar as I have driven at both of them. Looking for other opportunities to race as well as looking at two different tracks that have different classes. What’s the main thing you need help with to get you started. Now I am aging my car and going wheel to wheel. Along with this if he is there I may as well go karting too! I Auto x’ed for years and then started doing DEs about 3 years ago. My son wants to get behind the wheel and he sees me doing track days in my racecar so I am wanting to get him into sprint karting. Talk a little about your racing experience so far.
Small engines scare me, I will work through it. I know of two tracks Rebel Raceway in Tupelo MS and Mississippi Karting Association in Jackson, MS What age bracket are you in? Junior (<16), Senior (16+) or Masters (30+)ĥ and 35 On a scale of 1-10, how would you rate your mechanical ability, or willingness to wrench on things?ġ0 - I do all my own work on my racecar. So this is kind of a two folded question/post. If it sticks for him I will inevitably get a kart to race as well. I don’t want to get into dirt oval, I want sprint karts. After a quick search I found two tracks within a decent travel distance and that got the wheels turning. Hey everyone! I’m here because of a podcast from Ross Bentley and Davin Sturdivant.
