The karts are all “equal”, so technically it’s up to skill. When I used to race, all the classes had weight limits(kart + driver = XXXlbs) and I used to have to add like 90-100lbs to weigh in to the 2 “Heavy” classes I competed in :rofl ---

I know weight’s a factor, and to those hinting (i.e. making excuses) that weight will play a factor, I don’t mind taking people’s weights down and splitting two groups if we have more than like 12 people. We can do that later… What we can do is jot everyone’s weight down and find the midpoint, basically. If you’re over the midpoint, you race “heavy”. If you’re under, you go “light”. We can have the race for both categories too, if people want… But I don’t think all that is necessary. Weighting karts/people for a fun outing is kinda overkill, it seems… haha… That being said, extra weight affects you more in the really slow parts of the track, there’s really only one such turn on this track and that’s the hairpin- the rest of it is pretty flowing and keeping momentum and being smooth will help even a “heavier” driver stay with a lighter one. I would think extra weight hurts more indoors than outdoors… But there were some heavy guys (near 200, and 200+) posting decent times at GPNY last time we went so one can’t say being heavy is the end-all excuse… Remember p = mv, where p is momentum, m is mass and v is velocity. Big boys can do more damage… Not that I’m saying to purposely ram someone but… ---
