I’m a big fan of karting. It’s a great way to learn how to drive fast, a fun and safe way to introduce those of us who don’t have race gas running through their veins to racing and driving, and it’s not that hard to find a good karting track. Of course, the superkarts you see in these videos aren’t exactly the same as the lawnmower-powered put-puts you find at your local karting track. They pack 250cc engines, full aero packages, five or six speed sequential gearboxes, and can go from 0-60 in around 3 seconds and hit 150 MPH, so getting a helmet’s eye view of Laguna Seca on a superkart should be one hell of a video. I enjoyed it, at least. Also, the Isle of Man superkart video that got me on this path is posted below the jump.
