She is 7 at the mo. She had her first Kart lesson at Buckmoore the other week and was the only girl! She did a lot better than the boys - the only disadvantage she had, was despite being the same age as the boys she was the tallest and actually was to long for the Karts (Bambino one's) We are looking to get her a 'cadet' Kart the next size up. She'd fly if her elbows didn't touch her elbows.

(If anyone has got a Kart for sale pm me please)

I used to be a race director at several kart circuits and have to admit that the girls were alot easier to explain the rules and give advice to than the men. It was'nt uncommon for them to be quicker as well.

As far as buying a kart is concerned, it depends on what class you would like to do. The cheapest adult class is probably prokarts and for the kids it would be cadets.
