Re: Looking for "Race Career Guide" for Karting at CKRC/in Canada

NOt aware of a Discord group, but we do have a facebook page - https://www.facebook.com/calgarykart.racingclub I would say for conversation - the forums are probably the most effective - once the schedule is set at the beginning of the year - it's pretty static, unless rain or some other force of na...

Re: Looking for "Race Career Guide" for Karting at CKRC/in Canada

Really appreciate the detailed reply Keith. I think besides the due diligence into upfront cost & running costs of the different options, I should be all set to make a decision! Do you know of many who started out with the ROK VLR (or the Rotax Max) over a Briggs? I for sure wouldn't go with a ...

Re: Looking for "Race Career Guide" for Karting at CKRC/in Canada

HI JC, Welcome to the club! To answer your questions: Based on your age, you would be eligible for the Senior Briggs (same type of kart you drove in TaK), Senior VLR or Rotax (2 stroke - much faster) or shifter (way faster). Most new members will start with Briggs, simply from a cost perspective. It...

Re: New Trailer Survey (you have 3 options)

I went barn doors for the reasons you mentioned - space at the back. The ramp was easy enough to build, and store - during race days it just leans on the trailer wall, and when loaded it tucks up between the kart bumper and the trailer doors. Never had any issue with it moving while loading or unloa...

Fred - what happened to the VLR call was ...
