"Career"
"Stepping stone"
"Budget"
"Didn't Make it"
"passed it"
"started too late"

all words you hear every weekend at kart tracks.
all words that are not what karting should be about.

None of these are making karting exciting (unlike Revs, Noise, Lightness, Fun), none are relevant to the actual driving experience/enjoyment. They all are negative to karting in its own right and refers to it as sub class of cars. when its not.

Enjoyment:
Driving standards reduced as soon as the body work was "Crash Tested" and the stronger it gets the worse the driving gets.

Costs:
Then you look at the tracks. They used to be challenging and reward accurate driving. Now with ridable kerbs and big run off decent accurate driving is not rewarded as much and big power can ultimately be the best place to focus the budget over actual driver training as you no longer penalise people coming onto the straight badly.
