If you could go back

Um, no, that was Bret saying how he didn’t see how karting translated into car. But thanks for putting words in my mouth. :tup:

How can you comparitively spend more money on equipement when it is a factory sealed engine, ballasted classes, and tires are also spec at $85 a set? I guess there are guys that will replace wheel bearings every race and request a rebuild every other.

Practice, no arguement there, but then again I already said the only variable should be the drivers.

I didn’t mean to put words in your mouth, in fact I don’t really care I just thought it was you who had said this la couple years ago when everyone was going to buy spec karts. That being said even with spec motors/weights/tires/gears there will be the people who can afford new tires every race, a motor refreshing every couple races and the newest/greatest chassis/parts. It doesn’t mean you cant beat them, hell I did it successfully for both of my track championships, BUT it still something you have to deal with. There is always someone who is willing to out spend you, regardless of if it makes them faster or not.
