Best way to get started is to go down to Unser Karting in centennial and talk to Greg or Charlie. They can give you all the info you need on equipment, driving, and racing (if that’s what you want to do)
Dont buy a kart or equipment before you talk to a few people. This board is a great place to start with questions and 99.9% of the karters in the area will be happy to help!
LO is definitely the best pacakage for a beginner.
Easiest and smartest thing to do is to get a package from greg welch at podium karting. Everything will work correctly and he also has all the gear recommendations for the local tracks.
Imi is fine to buy parts from if you know exactly what you need. Otherwise, greg is your guy.
Extended break in talk is just nonsense. Most people don’t even mess with a proper 10-20 minute break in. They are lawnmower engines. Just change the oil after every other track day, put a close gear on it, and work on driving and setup.
It really is that simple, which is what makes the class great.
Ps- Rodney Ebersole is the local 4 cycle genius. (Replied to the post above) He can answer any and all technical questions.
Agreed! Imi or indoor at unser indoor would be a great place to start.
Make sure to do a little homework before buying a kart. There’s a lot of good help on this site. Also, I’d think just about everyone would recommend getting into the “lo206” class.
Also, if you want to race this weekend, I’d be willing to loan out the kart I have listed for sale. Just text me for the details.
Coming up soon! Looks like counts aren’t huge down there. If you’ve ever wanted to run a national level race, this is a fun opportunity to come down and hang with some fellow racers in a fun, new environment. 3 days of racing for the jr’s and sr’s.
