I'm confused on this as well. My best guess here is that the 390cc are 4 stroke and the 250cc are two stroke engines which might make the 390cc slower?

Will this be a pre-paid event, and we pay you first? Or is it pay when you show up?

I'm gonna bring a couple 25 pound plates to weigh your Kart down. Without them we won't have a chance of winning!

Unfair weight advantage against 99% of the grid.

You will be one of the light ones too, along with Cwiz. Gotta bring weight plates for you too!

Seriously you should take a personal day or plan on being "sick" and go karting with us!
