Advice & Lessons Learned | Sam Cooper @ CASE Motorsport

Try it first…We did Arrive & Drive Bambino at Daytona Manchester
Find somewhere close…within 45 mins so you can go and practice then race without hours in the car/van
Join a Bambino/Cadet Club….We joined YoungStarz at Red Lodge Karting. Good for the basics and get seat time
Decide why your doing it….Yes we all want a Lewis but most importantly have fun, time with the kids, good life lessons!
Go Honda…i.e. 4 stroke not 2 stroke just because the engine work and are cheaper….
MSA or non-MSA…the latter is easier, plenty of Independent Kart Racing series and local circuits including Red Lodge, Rye House, PFI
Avoid eBay for buying a kart…too many nasty old karts out there Karting.co.uk is better or a reputable kart dealer at the local ciruit
Take advice….but realise you will get differing opinions and eventually you need to make your own decisions!
Keep it simple at first…keep the cost down and just get lots and lots of seat time.
Go Racing…the buzz is great! But only when you’re ready. Don’t rush it…confidence gets knocked initially but it will get better.
