    Update on Discussions between my_KART members (Naza, Muhaymin, Patrick, Tarmizi) and AP of CityKarting, summarised as follows:

    1) Our kids should take the first step of familiarisation and basic skills development with the slower 4 stroke engine cadet karts before upgrading to the faster 80 cc karts.

    2) Depending on the rate of progress of each child, changing to the faster 80 cc karts can be made on request. CK can prepare 80 cc cadet karts quite easily.

    3) Currently, two 4-stroke cadet karts are available for rent at RM 10 per 10 mins and RM 20 for the parent wishing to accompany the child on a 80cc kart. This nice rental rates are valid for my-KART members only (currently those registered on this website until membership IDs are issued). Please state your name and child name below for us (committee members) to inform AP.

    4) CK will prepare more 4 stroke cadet karts if the demand warrants it but only after 16th Jan 07 (apparently he is not around before that).

    Your name :
    Childs name
    Age :
    Date / Time : Saturday…../ 11.00 am – 1.00 pm (Especially for first timers. The afternoon will be riskier due to the presence of very fast 80/ 100 / 125 karters on the track unless your child is not a newbie.

    Just to add to this, Naza, Min, Tarmizi & myself saw a small kid which I believe is about 6-7 years old (with full racing suit) took out the CK cadet kart on his own with his dad following behind.
    As you have mentioned that your son will be turning 6 very soon and very passionate about cars (and he has followed you & ffez on the lap with him holding the steering wheel at Manjung go-kart circuit), he should catch-up with the concept of driving very fast.
    You should bring him down CK one day and let him sit in the cadet kart to gauge the distance of his feet to the pedal. Who knows, maybe with an additional cushion padding, he could be burning the track before you know what happened!

    From the understanding is, once the kids are familiar with driving a kart, we should be able to organise a non-championship race during the my-KART monthly series for the kids with 2 categories (correct me if I’m wrong). 4-stroke for those below 10 with not much confidence yet and 2-stroke 80cc cadet karts for those who are confident enough.

    Correct me if I’m wrong, once the membership drive is up, only the paid members will benefit on this offer as only the paid members will get the membership card.

    yes. main concern for the likes of citykarting in renting such karts out is credibility of the walk in customer.

    my-kart has had a long history with citykarting, kartquest and the likes. my-kart has built a credible reputation as being passionate and professional organisation. we are consistent in our event operations. our members also carry the reputation of being safe, competent and rational drivers. my-kart also has a member base that the likes of citykarting cannot ignore: working adults (professionals, executives, managers and businessmen) who have children / connections / network of acquaitances.

    membership benefits is a win win for all. my-KART members carrying the membership card carries with them the my-KART brand and credibility. Circuit operators renting karts to my-KART cardholders know that the person is not going to trash their equipment – and at the same time, allows the operators to bring out equipment which are underutilised.

    or hers…
    ok quick question b4 i actually bring my daughter(s) to the track…
    i don’t know about the cadet karts (never actually seen one up close), but are they similar to the normal 4-stroke fun karts (besides being obviously smaller in size)?
    because i’ve driven the normal 4-stroke fun karts and they are god-awful heavy on the steering… and i don’t want my daughters to be put-off by this…
    cheers!

    Ed,
    the 4 stroke fun karts we have driven in Sunway and Elite tracks were meant for Scharwznegger type bodies. These 4 stroke 50 cc smaller cadet karts should be light enough having watched some kids driving it in recent days. Perhaps Rizal’s son Aiman can shed a bit more light on “heavy steering” assuming he had driven these karts.

    ahhh… that explains the bigger biceps after driving one of these monsters… somehow they also seem to relocate to the lower regions (read:tummy) after a couple of nasi lomaks… bugger!
    cheers!
