sg no....malaysia...yes....SG's track sucks la....one lap abt 30 secs plus in a fun kartOriginally posted by boltstorm:do we have serious kart races in sg? i'll be interested... -
From what I know... most karts owned by others are built to the size of the owners... in other words, cutom built to fit the owner... so if you get a 2nd hand kart and it turns out to be not really a good fit for you, you're gonna have to spend more cash to alter it... might as well go for a 1st hand kart...Originally posted by yoshitei:Yeah, I understand the price range for a new kart.
Henceforth, I'm looking for a second hand kart. Anyone whom is giving up their hobby or upgrading.
Try asking around Jurong Kartworld... They store the karts owned by others... -
not true...that only applies for the seat and peals....pedals can be adjusted....but seat u have 2 get yr own size thats allOriginally posted by LH83:From what I know... most karts owned by others are built to the size of the owners... in other words, cutom built to fit the owner... so if you get a 2nd hand kart and it turns out to be not really a good fit for you, you're gonna have to spend more cash to alter it... might as well go for a 1st hand kart...

Is there any Kart track at Jurong still? Maybe around 8 years ago or something when I was around 13, there was a Canadian guy in my school who got really damn good at karting and I think went there alot, up to the stage where he was representing Singapore at the World Cup. He subsequently moved to Canada and I guess kept at the racing, and recently won a big Discovery Channel reality TV show in the US where the winner gets a place in the Team Mazda racing circuit or something. Now he gets paid to drive for a living

The only good thing about the track is that it is somewhat quite technical... in that small area, you've got about 7 corners to cover... not much time to think how to clear each one... you just go.. lol... -
Hrm... its up to him actually... but I'd rather get a 1st hand kart... you never know what the previous owner did to the kart... =)Originally posted by AE86tofu:not true...that only applies for the seat and peals....pedals can be adjusted....but seat u have 2 get yr own size thats all -
well...u're nt going for a international Race so its okay....besides...accident or nt also wun make a diff to the kart....if u're only getting into the sport....thats what i feelOriginally posted by LH83:Hrm... its up to him actually... but I'd rather get a 1st hand kart... you never know what the previous owner did to the kart... =) -
I'm concerned more about safety I guess... You dun really have much of a chassis to protect you if there is a collision or anything... sometimes the collison might not be your fault either, but I've seen one where a kart tried to overtake another and ended up half on top of the first kart, jammed together while both went straight to the tyre wall... Seeing it was scary enough...Originally posted by AE86tofu:well...u're nt going for a international Race so its okay....besides...accident or nt also wun make a diff to the kart....if u're only getting into the sport....thats what i feel -
well theres not much of a protection that the chassis can give u...as long as the sidepods etc are okay....u shld be fine...the guy ended up half on top of the other kart cos his front wheel touched the front guy's rear wheel...he was lucky he didnt flip his kartOriginally posted by LH83:I'm concerned more about safety I guess...

as long as there's protection from collisions.. heh... imagine if there's a side crash and the chassis breaks... The scary part was seeing the front tyre like centimetres away from the guy... heh...Originally posted by AE86tofu:well theres not much of a protection that the chassis can give u...as long as the sidepods etc are okay....u shld be fine...the guy ended up half on top of the other kart cos his front wheel touched the front guy's rear wheel...he was lucky he didnt flip his kart -
the first time i try karting was last year..was great! i actually beat all 15 members there..lol..dunno how i made it..but i won all of them..no price though..
then december i went back to play..haha although i keep spunning out on the track, it was still fun!didnt win anybody on the 2nd try..becos i was alone..
..but i wanna buy a kart n join races too..just that my mom says that no point..becos getting license in 2 more years..so no point buying me 1..she say if want,should have started early.. -
rest assured that the chassis wont just "break" under the crash....but under norm wear and tear circumstances it will...most ppl just weld it backOriginally posted by LH83:as long as there's protection from collisions.. heh... imagine if there's a side crash and the chassis breaks...
