    IMO, would go with 100cc for kart space, done a few races there and been fine. just change the top speed for some tracks and it should be fine. shouldnt need too much testing hopefully, from memory 120km/h works decently around there in the 100s. And for final race lol, I would personally go around the 'Ring but i somehow think it wouldn't be to everyones tastes lol

    By 8:30 start, do you mean 8:30 race start or qual start? If qual, what time is the race going to start as that will determine my participation.

    Reserving #46 pending.

    After a bit of a run on Kart Space I came to the conclusion that the Jr would be a good fun kart here, with it's low gearing it is up on the revs for a good deal of the time, and is fun to drive here. (good way to ease into karts too, don't want to jump into those big ponies staright up :))

    I ran the 100 and 125 here as well and struggled to get the times I was acheiving with the Jr due to their default taller gearing, and these karts will be used later in the series were suited.

    Just wondering lads, do the karts need to be run in?

    Hmm, good question Snake. I would think so, just like every other vehicle in GT.

    Yeah I thought as much, I've just never tried to run one in before and thought someone might know for sure, cheers Rumbles.

    Hey Clevo. Not sure if you have decided on the final track yet but was thinking the TGTT or London would work? Otherwise, you (or I) could make a custom Eifel track suitable for karts?

    @ Snake: I stand corrected, you do not need to do an oil change after purchasing the kart so it is possible that it has no run-in :rolleyes:

    @ Clevo: My colour for the Jr. is GT Chrome 006-W. I will probably make my kart a different colour per variant simply due to the limited paint chip system, but will always be a chrome variant :)

    Had Nurburgring GP/D in mind, was gonna run a poll for the last track, had run there last week in practising for 86 and the 125 went well on it.

    But am interested to see what you can do with a custom Eifel job.

    Probably because you didn't change the regulations to karts only or something like that

    That's it you need to go to event regs and change to karts only.

    Which initself is kind of strange. You would think a track called Kart Space would allow Karts by default :lol:
