Level 3 & 4 (mostly). HAve raced go-karts since 1958 (yes, children). Won my class in 40 and over last full season out. Have an asphalt roadrace kart track south of Atlanta (BArnesville, GA) that has been there as long as I have been racing. Have one leg of the season WKA Nationals there each spring: one for 2 cycles and a few weeks later the 4 cycles. Draw about 80 plus karts fm all over the country.( WKA=World Karting Association) But I started on dirt ovals in Ohio. Nothing like wheel-to-wheel competition. makes one appreciate the professionals. Karting is a great way to start. MAny Pros have started in Karts (Lake Speed, John Surtees). Karts can lap many tracks (Roebling, Savannah, GA ) near the track record for ALL cars! cb
