How can I get involved in racing?

How does my 11 year old cousin get involved in racing?

  • Answer:

    The best age to start is between 8-12 so it is not too late for you cousin to start. Start with go-kart. It is less dangerous (lower speed) and you will learn all the basic skill you need Go to a local race track and get a try to get pit pass. Some might ask you to take a course first. You won't get into a race right away. A decent used racing kart is going to cost you $2000-3000, plus another $500 or so for the required safety gear, and another couple hundred for some tools, a starter, and a kart stand.

My friend was racing 1/4 midgets when we were that age. They are like go carts with a roll cage and more suspension, they look like scaled down versions of sprint cars and they race dirt too.
