Well I have been talking for some time how to get my family more involded in something I enjoy. Standing off to the side and cheering just does not cut it. My son is now 10, my daughter is 13. So I have been looking for a Kart. Well today I finally found one, it will have to be tweaked a little to fit into the scca jr. Kart rules for Solo, but I can make it work the price was right.
For $350, I got a complete cart, minus engine. It is a CRG Kali comes with a couple sets of slicks, has an adjustable seat for kids, it was orginally an 80cc shifter. So I have to do a little modifing to make it work under the rules. But a CRG Kart is top of the line. Well worth the effort. Maybe my kids will be better drivers, learn how to handle a car etc.... Now all I have to do is get my wife to co-drive the 914 with me, and we are set. Let grandpa, be the kids pit crew. I pick it up this weekend pictures to follow. So now I figure I need a small single axle trailer to haul the 914, and tires, and toss the cart in the bed of the truck. Or maybe a little longer single axle and the car, and kart can just stay on it. All in all it becomes a family sport, and we all get to spend more time togther (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) |
