| Moving
Up Early |
So you have won a
few club events, maybe even a national or two and on slow days
at the local track your driver practices in his 80cc and does
well. People are amazed at how well he/she drives at
such a young age and phrases like "natural" are
heard in whispers behind you. Sound familiar?

| K80 Builders |
I have compiled a
list of motor builders that I have either had personal
experience with or have run against at an event. By no
means are these the only builders out there just ones I have
seen their work.

| Comer
Clutch Alert |
| It has
come to our attention that many of the Comer 80 clutches
coming out of the factory are defective. For
whatever reason the shoe is separating from clutch
lining. We
strongly urge you to check your clutch often. If
you do have one of the defective clutches, return the
entire clutch to
the place of purchase for a replacement. |

| Getting
Started |
A common question we hear: "If we start at the
beginning of a season, how much will we need to budget
to race all year?" Let's try for a range. Whether
you start with new or used equipment will impact the
amount you spend. The majority of new go-karters start
with second hand equipment. Sometimes you'll find
it with a used engine ready to go. If you buy used from
a current go-karter, the engine will likely be used.

| The
Driver |
The
most important part of the team has to be the driver. No
matter how fast your kart can go, if the driver doesn't have
the abilities to drive it you might as well have stayed home.
More than once we were not the fastest on the track but still
finished out front because our driver had the seat time it
takes to learn the strategies of racing. <MORE>
