We had a storm and a lightening and feel the storm was better for us

They are still a fast kart and can win at club level

Most of the time in the comer is carbs, lots and lots

The carbs are a joke for cadets and tricky to get correct and once they are correct if a shooting star passes which changes the air pressure by 0.000000000001 % and the next race you are done

Not quite that bad but terrible things, they look like they are changing for 2013 so maybe worth holding on?

There is not 1 or 2 seconds from a ok to a good motor, don't get caught in the comer money pit!

We have 3 motors and the motors that is the poorest on the dyno sheet is the best on most tracks

Our best motor at £300 was , is better than the others at 4 x that cost

Again lots if time in carbs

IMO at present I would stay clear of the iame this is super cadet all over again

Can not see anyone spending £3000 on two motors that are slower than a £200 ebay motor!

and the clubs a have no grids so you cannot race anyway

I see this going on for 6 months at least before its more sorted

Good luck
