Ok, give me 3 weeks to get you a draft of this article.

I am imagining a three part series:

1. Introduction of Karting as a low cost form of motorsport (sprint karting, in particular)

- Target due date for final draft: mid-April

1. Typical day at the track (I should be back at the track by May)

- Target due date for final draft: mid-June

1. How to get started / finding a track, etc.

- Target due date for final draft: mid-August

What do you think Vlad?
