Waiting for the unique "It's too big for a mini" comments

Nice video! That particular class of Kart is at a disadvantage because its only got 1 gear, its not really built for standing starts. Would be nice to see them use a KZ2/Shifter kart with a gearbox and hand clutch.

We figured one gear and no shifting was closer to matching an automatic and not a manual Mini. Cheers for watching though.

Or a rolling start (and someone that can actually drive the kart flat out).

This entry level kart does 60 mph lol not weight balanced either for driver. I would walk away from this car on a kart track. Wanna bet?

It's Also not the fastest engine. 22 horses matches a junior category when a senior category has 30-32 automatic and can do 0-60 in like 3.5-4 seconds
