Those things are awesome! The kids down here in Fl run those things. They come out in flame suits and everything :shades ! Looks like a lot of fun for them. (but I like to go a little faster)

Wow, the kids down here are around 7-10 years old, and go way slower than that!

I would like to see if Jacob would like to get into that next year (will be 5). What is the average cost to get started?

A decent starter car is about 4-5k used, plus you'll need all the supporting equiptment, ie spare parts, full driver protection, trailer, starter etc...

You have to be 8 rears old to race so you have 3 years to save up :)

It will be the best money you ever spent... much more rewarding to invest in your kids than some stupid part for your car you don't need :shades

maybe I should have kids, would actually help me save money, hahaha.

i can't wait to put my stuff on the backburner so i could help my kids enjoy something like this. but knowing me, i'd be hiding some nitrous kit on it so they always win or something, haha

I've been thinking about doing carts. My son is almost 6. It's time for something fun.

His 120cc snowmobile is fun, but too damn seasonal.
