Anyone into Go Karts

[j0oftheworld]

E30 track car would be less than almost any shifter/TAG kart I'm afraid to say..
You need the Kart and if it's a TAG, a service center, or if not be able to rebuild and tune, SPARES galore, wheels, slicks, rains, clutches, brakes, axles, Micron dash?, plastics, a stand, a trailer, (or a volvo V70 wagon) :) Race gas/jugs, different gear/parts for different classes/clubs, personal race/safety gear.
Not trying to sound scary but most people think their just cheap/easy.
In fact they're high maintenance and tires will run you $200/event.

On my E30 it's $250 brakes and $500 tires per year and ~$30 in gas/day. :)

Motorsport is so exspensive and i was thinking why not karting, its super fast and i would imagine atleast half the price of a track car.

are there any Kart racers here that could school me on what i need to know??
