OscarM2603 should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Hi, I'm 14 going on 15 4 months and I'm interested in joining some sort of motorsport to fix my craving! My best-friend is 15 and racing in the F1000 Rally Championship but that seems pretty expensive. I'm edging towards karting for a reason that it seems to teach a lot about proper techniques and learning from it. There are a few classes for me to join but I have no idea on budget, karts (second hand) etc. I can join KF3 or Mini Max but would have to move out of it in early 2015 due to age limit. There is also Rotax Max or Rotax National which seem good and I've seen karts go for €1900. I don't plan on racing on a serious level, just race every few weeks and get experience. I've heard that Karting is more expensive than amateur Rallycross and that you'll need 2 engines, lots of tyres and spare chassis. Any answers to these questions and tips would be great

Thanks
