I think everyone in that video was driving the RX7s except the guy with the video recorder who was in a RX250. He was sooo much faster than everyone else, driver weight can't be the only explanation. Either that or everyone else was driving like a bunch of pansies.

Yes, what Andrew said makes sense.

Please sign up another guest. I'll be bringing Patrick H. along and he will be racing also.. He is an HPDE instructor and likes carting.

Thanks ZCarMan!

So here is the scoop from the guy who runs the karting at Summit Point. If at any time you are able to qualify via your lap times, you are afforded the option to move up to the 250cc kart for a step up fee of $40.00 He says its not easy because you have to be very fast in the 390cc RX-7 kart to qualify.

So, there you have it.

based on the vid - that cart has more power than the course can really handle.. he was squeeling and hopping everywhere..

The RX-7 karts are rated at 13HP and the 250cc karts are rated at 15-28HP so that would explain why that guy in the video was zipping all over the place. I could imagine it to be fairly easy to put yourself in the hurt locker with one of those if you missed a turn just a little bit.

I'm perfectly fine w/ people starting with the RX7's...those 250cc's will kill someone in the wrong hands.
