Truth be told, I did see that, but i forgot to put it in :D:D

I'm getting heated because its people like this that are effectively pricing people like myself out of karting. I know you can get kit cheaper, but some people will look at the prices of this kind of kit and think: "That must be so much better than what I'm looking at, and I can't afford to pay that much to be competitive", and pick a different sport!!

And how do you know that these people are being honest, and that you're getting the engine they're advertising. Everyone says that there's a difference between Rotax barrels depending on year (dont know which, dont really care), how do you know Joe Bloggs is selling an 07 barrel and advertising it as his race winning 08 one?!? Because there is alot of dishonesty in this sport, one thing I have done my best to stick well clear from over my years of racing.

I'm in a position of having to quit karting after Snetterton on May 25th. Largely its due to a lack of enthusiasm for it after 11 years, but it also has an amount to do with the cost of racing!! I'm sure I'm not the only one in this position, especially with the credit crunch expected to only get worse!!
