Even if a dude weighed 300+ in a TAG kart vs. a 120 lb’er in a rental it just would not be fair for the rental guy. Over double the hp, and the kart weighs about the same. The only thing is things happen a LOT faster in a TAG kart. Every corner at CVMP, including the esses, would require some form of lifting and/or braking. Even the left hander back onto the main straight can’t be done flat out without the back end coming loose (with good tires and a well set up kart even). Let’s say there’s a step between GPNY and the CVMP rentals right? The difference between a race kart (TAG) and the CVMP rental is probably at least as much of a gap, with the TAG requiring a lot more physical exertion too. I’ve done laps in a TAG and then switched into a rental kart to take another look at the lines… It was like going from karting outdoors to an indoor facility. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/pics-from-cherry-valley-gokarts-10-17/247650)._
