thinking of running the dirt and have questions
« Thread Started on Sept 20, 2008, 7:14pm »
Hi guys , my son runs sprint and road race but have never tried the dirt . can you use a sprint chassis for the dirt ? What classes are for a 13 year old ? does a rotax 125 cc engine have a class or can it be used in any class ? If it cant be used what engine packages are there for this age ?
thank you in advance for your answers

The biggest class for our club id the Animal class, 12-16yr old.
(Super Jr 11)
Yes, you can use your sprint chassis, (an off-set is the most common, but we have racers using sprint chassis as well)
Hope that helps

Super JR II is ages 12 to 15 years old; we use the Briggs & Stratton racing motor "Animal", using either gas or methanol alcohol (most of us use alcohol); no restrictor plate. We can get you a special deal through the club for under $600 on the Animal, brand new in the crate. You'll need to buy an exhaust pipe with a spec muffler around $50, carburator kit (for alcohol) around $35, clutch- prices vary. Come join the fun with our karting families!!!!
