Go Karting For 9yr Olds - How to start?

[Frosties]

don't know if Basingstoke bit far to travel but absolute Karting are in our work today selling their wares so will see if i can pick up a brochure & scan it in for you!

Awesome Robbie, that'd be spot on. Much appreciated. Basingstoke is only a 20 min run

I think I went to this place on a Stag do a couple of years back.

Has your lad raced yet?  Don't buy a kart until you know whether he would be into it enough / any good!

A mate of mine used to race, but as a tall person he became noncompetitive as the smaller, lighter drivers had an advantage!

Cheers for that also Alan, good shout on the West London site - looks good with Novice open days   
No he hasn't raced yet but just want to give him the opportunity. Best do it now 'cos I'm 6'3" and reckon he's on course for about the same.

Cheers fellas, much appreciated. Will let you know the outcome - hope he likes it cos ive already seen some nice 125cc package buys with extra wheels, engines etc for about a grand
