ParticipantDone. Something like that would be a good starting point. Welcome to karting.

ParticipantThat’s about as good a deal as you’ll see (amazed it’s still there).
You’ll need a kart, workstand, safety gear (suit, helmet, gloves, neck brace, and maybe shoes and rib vest), a means of mixing oil and fuel (fuel jug and Ratio-Rite mixing cup), tools (there may be an old post here or at ekartingnews.com that gives a list of what goes in a karting toolbox), and a means to get all that to/from the track. Of course, that’s the tip of the iceberg, as eventually you’ll want to change tires, bleed brakes, etc.
Other than that, my advice would be to hang out at the local tracks and shops, ask lots of questions of people running TAG, and soak up what you see like a sponge. At first you’ll be “relying on the kindness of strangers” a fair bit.

ParticipantAs the others have said, that Arrow/Rotax package is steal.

Luckily the strangers in karting community are about as kind to no0bs as you can find in motorsports.
