Just got my son a WTP B1 Kart, 2004 chassis from eBay.
We're simply going to use it for fun this year, we went to GYG last weekend and he absolutely loved it. At £390, we'll sell it on again next year and if I get back 1/2 that I'll be more than happy. I think GYG would allow you to enter this kart into a race, but you wouldn't score any points.
For most first-timers it's just a foot in the water, you could go out and buy a brand new kart and then find your kid hates it.
Aiming to move up to a junior class next year if son still likes it with the aim of entering races etc. Probably get a Junior TKM, wanted to go 4 Stroke for costs but doesn't seem to be raced much.
eBay's great-just do some homework and be realisitic about what you're going to use the kart for.
