What you love about karting?

[B man]

Well the name is pretty self explanitory.

What do you love about your kart/karting?

I'll start.
I love it when I come out of a turn at half throttle on to a straight away and gun it. When the knobby tires hook up with the ground and the kart jumps uP to 40mph. And when my kart can sit in one place and cyclone in circles.

I enjoy working on them most. And watching my nephews and family kids enjoy them. Keeping them running well so they are always ready to go.

what i love about it is when you build one from scratch and get it running. you feel just oh so joyed. also when you have an engine and not sure of its abilities and it wants to do a wheelie when you have an under rated clutch and you just have it at idle. happened to my first cart

The chance to have fun and learning stuff making something knowing it wil give you even more fun when it is finished.

Not the winnings, as I do not race.

I enjoy being able to de-stress. Being able to rip it up without the "rules of the road" applying. Wrenching on stuff because I want to, not because I "have to". Teaching my kids how to wrench. Driving hard without worrying about breaking my ride to work, and knowing that if I do break something, it simply does not matter.

I like how much I learn from the hobby.

What I have always loved about karting is seeing what you have worked on for months or weeks come together in the form of something you can have fun in.

Knowing That what you built is your own and of course the funny looks you get when people see you driving a "small car" on a public street.haha also who doesn't love being outside and to see how much power and noise you you can get out of a little 200cc single cylinder lawn mower engine.
