Default Re: spiritwind/kart racing

I also have older: 2001first kart, a 96 Birel Ar 2, a 2001 Sodi t3 and a 2001 Coyote.

Alot of the racers up here are running the aussie Arrow kart, GOLD chassis are popular, the Birels are huge and we also have the marguays up here. Arrow , GOLD and Sodi are my favorites. Someday I would like to buy one brand new one and give my son a better chance. He made 8th overall at Mosport out of a 24 kart field.

We ran the old Birel for 1/2 the year and then the sodi. The first Kart was this year but we had a poor engine and didn't get it figured out till last 3 races. 19th overall in Jr heavey

We are switching clubs from Mosport to Toronto ( where Pauk Tracy cut his chops ) this season so again there will be a steep learning curve as we have never raced there more than once. Should be fun....WAY expensive as I have 2 kids in it. My youngest is starting his Novice year at age 10 ( due to budget issues)would have liked to have started sooner

here's his website...it needs updating though. It has a nice Gallery
