no u would be right there ! but business men do not spend cash on drivers who have learnt and are as talented as they come! the truth of the matter is no one is spending money on motorsport full stop!
sponsorship is hard to find at the best of times , so if u, ur dad or any other part of the family has the money then y not! i would n im sure u would too.

Most of the established racing drivers have come through karting.


so if u dnt do kartin ur not an 'established' driver! im sorry but most kartin these days cost a lot more than many junior series! u just dnt hear about it as much! just cos ppl see 14-16 year old racing CARS! they think 'dadddy' is payin but look at the drivers doin kartin , im sure everyone is queing up to sposnor them so 'daddy' doesnt have to pay!.....i dnt think so.
