hey everyone, i just registered to this forum, and i want some advice from u all...

im 13 and im about to start my karting career, but i dont know what catagory i should enter..... any suggestions?

First of all waiting till you're 15 is definately out. You should be starting as early as possible. So why waste 2 years for nothing. 100cc is definately the place to start in Thailand. It cheap and easy to run too.

No point waiting.. get a kart now and start driving. Judging by the results I've seen both Junior-Tag and the Yamaha categories have ok entries so just have a look at your budget and talk to kart shops and see what would be best.

The yamaha will probably be good for at least one to learn to drive on, it'll feel plenty fast for a while as well.

what about the rotax max? thats another desision... at the moment, im going to go in tag junior or rotax max junior.

Oh yeah of course Rotax Junior is a really good option, I just thought of "Tag Junior" including Rotax.

the bad thing is, i cant find any places on the net which have prices for rotax engines or chassis sold in thailand... anybody know any sites which have the prices of chassis and rotax engines?

Try www.simonracing.net and www.italkartthai.com and rotax.thailand@gmail.com (official distributor) for Rotax engines. All them for chassis as well + www.xfracing.com for Birel/Yamaha/Iame.

thanks for that!

i went to the mini siam kart track and had a big talk with a guy there who is a thai champion and he is a kart coach! i got some great infomation, and im going to get a birel and get into intercon A, Rotax max junior or teg junior!
