we went to a bush race and all she is talking about is wanting to race. I have no idea how to get started. I would like to go some place to let her try.
First thing… find a local kart track. Just like with car racing there are different styles of tracks. I used to spend quite a bit of time at a dirt oval cart track. Once you find a track and decide you want to race there, research the kart classes. Some are based on age range. Some are a totally different style of kart. Talk to some of the teams about their karts. Many of them may not give you all of their secrets but they will give you enough info to get started. Heck you may even find somebody willing to sell a current class winning cart because they plan to move up. Once you have secured a kart and other equipment, depending on track rules, you should be able to show up on race day and run. It is NOT a cheap hobby. Be prepared to spend a small fortune just to get started. Good luck and have fun with it. Think of it as a great way to bond with your daughter.
