If I'm not wrong can mix but will be in the category as the oldest person in the team. If TS is really interested in setting up a proper team, I suggest getting help over from Cars forum as well.

it really is expensive if you guys are serious about forming a team. where do you guys intend to practice? let's not forget about the safety gears and all. u can't be competitive using those stock models u know. teams need to have their own customized karts in order to optimize perfomance and karts are not really cheap. they cost like 10k and upwards, depending on the cc and type of frame.
if you guys are REALLY SERIOUS, i propose we set up a kart design team. it'd be cheaper this way. major parts/assemblies we need to purchase for e.g. are:
1.motor(price depends on the CC)
2.molybdenum steel tubings for frame.
3.transmission system
4.seats, brakes, etc
5.cooling and exhaust system
6.and the smaller parts
i have access to manufacturing equipments such as welding machines, machining machines, knowing where to get the right materials and such, etc.
in fact, i was interested in building a kart years back but didn't have the funds and help i needed. so if u guys are interested, we could do a meetup and discuss about this furthur. of course, all of us have to chip in and it's actually not expensive to build a complete competitive sporting kart this way. if even NUS students can build mini F1s, why can't we hobbyist? -
Interesting. I've always wanted to try karting but don't know how to start.
Anyone got more info on the basics? -
google it. but karting on a regular basis is expensive.Originally posted by Gato1001:Interesting. I've always wanted to try karting but don't know how to start.

yes can mix...but depends on the kind of people U are joining...say extreme case...3 Cat A+1 Cat D...each of the 3 Cat A have to pay 30 bucks for registration...not a very very big amount...but as with all groups...when buay song...anything also can quarrel one.Originally posted by rue:i am 20 this year.

I doubt we have the kind of money,time and expertise to carry out the above.Originally posted by newcomer:it really is expensive if you guys are serious about forming a team. where do you guys intend to practice? let's not forget about the safety gears and all. u can't be competitive using those stock models u know. teams need to have their own customized karts in order to optimize perfomance and karts are not really cheap. they cost like 10k and upwards, depending on the cc and type of frame.

Anyway my understanding of the competition is to join and just race...kindly correct me if I am wrong.Thanks. -
yea. it was just a far fetched idea i brought up.
-
I think it's more of a fun karting challenge with your friends. Not a competitive race.
Won't hurt to take part.. -
so who's with me? i very on one.
If anyone has a car i can suggest we go johor to try out for fun too. i noe the locations. -
