Depends a bit on budget. It is no harder starting with Superkarts if you start with a lower capacity kart. I would recommend investigating with your local superkart clubs and checking out the alternatives. TKM are a good starter class but easy to get stuck in to that, spend a fair bit of money and not realise that for not much more you can race long circuits...

bout the same as we ICC UK boys do in the UK's, we run with the 125 Open guys but as our own champs, last year i finished 5th in 125 overall out of 20 odd, 15 of them were Opens!!!

Hi! I am in England, and I kart myself. I am just about to move up from TKM class (100cc, 15-20bhp, 70mph top speed), but should i go for superkarts? I want to do short and long circuits... Cheers

I races a full season of it. Was quite good fun, especially Phillip Island, have to run in the open 125cc class but I was doing ok in that group, 4 - 5th....

mittong do you aussie guys run 125 ICC at Long Circuit? I race an Arrow kart in UK Long Circuit and fancy a run out in Oz.

It is around 1 min 33's - a Moto GP bike is a couple of seconds faster, V8 's are a bit slower... It is a mix of older and younger guys.

Just a question, what sort of times do these guys do, say, in comparison to the GP bikes and V8's around the Island? Also, what is the average age of these guys? Are they young guys who are super quick, or older (Mid 20's) guys who can afford to finance their habbit? I guess that is two questions. Cheers anyone.
