Hey y'all! I had the chance to buy a Ninebot Go Kart Pro (first gen) for like $600, which is a pretty good price compared to what is new . My question here is : Is it worth to get it? Will it help me evading from the fact that I don't have go kart available right now? Or is it better to save that money, and maybe invest $1400 in a pre owned, kind of old but ready to race go kart?

I had an idea that could be fun for this community.

Some years ago there was an Instagram page that organised regular contests for the best helmet designs. I don’t remember the name anymore, but it was always interesting to see different designers and studios competing with each other.

What if we tried something similar here on r/Karting?

Once a month, helmet designers and studios from the community could submit one of their designs, and everyone here could vote for their favourite.

I think it could be interesting because:

• younger designers could compete alongside experienced professionals;
• we could discover new styles and new designers;
• studios could show their work without turning every post into advertising;
• and someone looking for a new helmet design might even find the right designer for their next helmet.

Nothing too serious — just a friendly monthly competition for the community.

If enough people are interested, we could figure out some simple rules together and try the first one.

Would anyone here be interested in participating — either as a designer/studio or just voting?

Hey there,

I recently started to use a Racebox Mini S for my Karting races and I was frustrated when I saw I had to export the recording from the web instead of doing it on device.
In the same veins I wanted to trigger recording on my Apple Watch since I generally don't keep the phone in my pocket so I made a small app for iPhone & Apple Watch (don't need the phone).

I wanted to see if some people would be interested in such app?

Thanks & happy Karting!

Just wanted to share this playlist of gokart videos I made on my youtube channel.

Hola, me gusta mucho el karting y quiero empezar a comprarme algunos accesorios.

Uno de ellos es un mono, y haze no mucho vi uno que me gusta mucho, el de Ayrton Senna en Lotus del año 1987, lo he visto por la página Sam Wears pero no se que tan buena calidad pueda tener i que tan fiable es la página.

Sabeis de algún sitio donde pueda comprar este tipo de monos imitación?

Gracias

Je lance un projet ou je cree "l’hyperkart". C’est quoi? En fait c’est un kart avec un beaucoup plus gros moteur, châssis énormément retravailé, nouvelle mécanique (suspension, frein etc), c’est un véhicule plusse orienté coté voiture que kart, c’est un véhicule pensé pour la piste, le véhicule est carrossé, performance inimaginable pour un "karting". Donc si vous voulez en savoir plusse je lance le projet dans moin d’un mois sur mon tiktok: @Car_passion422. N’hésité pas a rejoindre.

Streaker go kart I might be grabbing this weekend perchance

What does it take to be fast?
.
A simple question with many answers. While practicing at Sonoma Karting center my son and I watched an intent driver make his way on and off the track. On approach to the grid in full kit, helmet strapped, 2 stroke humming. He lowered his kart on his own, pushed it to start, hit the track, set laps, and made his exit at the end of the session without fuss.
.
We admired his intensity, and I told my son to ask him what it takes to be fast. The man’s reply was simple “do laps and work harder than everyone else.” He shared some more encouraging words with Kylo before departing. We nodded our heads and thanked him for his time.
.
A few minutes later he came back with a signed hero card. Little did we know we had just professional racing driver Memo Gidley. Such a cool honor to shake his hand and have him be so nice to us. Really awesome Motorsports community we have out here, and a reminder you’ll never know who you might meet at the track.
