Kart Racing

Anyone else on here into racing karts? I have been racing a shifter kart with a Honda CR125 for the past 5 years. I started off in auto-x for the first three years and then switched to road racing in the past two years.

Links to a couple videos of me racing:
[ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vJEWp_HdMGE"]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vJEWp_HdMGE[/ame]

And a picture of me racing:


And the new chassis I picked up last night. I was racing a 2008 Mike Wilson and the frame was getting tweaked from years of racing and I was tired of maintaining the brakes, so I picked up a 2015 Parolin Invader. I'm definitely looking forward to the first race!


And I have get my FR-S in there.

I used to race karts when I was a kid. It was hard to be competitive as my dad and I just put the kart in the back of the truck and showed up with just the basics, and I had to go up against guys with unlimited funds like Cameron Hayley. you may have heard of him haha, I had the privilege of getting beat by him

Sort of... I occasionally "race" concession/rental karts, so a different league. Still fun :-)
