Hey John……I asked a similar question earlier about engine spec’s. I was a first year kart dad last year and I got different answers to the same questions. I understand everyone want’s the best package for there kids so do I, but when your kid’s get bummed-out when they get smoked by this or that it’s tough we aren’t able to have several different motor packages to try so we ran a flathead Briggs. I feel a spec class should be a spec class and the kid’s and dad’s should understand that they are here to learn how to drive and have fun. I also understand that the more karts the better and with my kid’s they wanted to run the class with the most karts…….All in all we met a lot of great people and had a great time. So much so that we bought a second kart and will be running 2 classes this year.
Looking forward to this year
Mikey
