Back in the day (2002) we did Formula A (the then KF1 for those too young) with a full grid, did clubbies in Rotax and had lots of wins at club level and some good podiums at Super 1 for 12.5k. Owning our own kart and renting engines. Karts where cheaper then but tyres certainly weren't.

I've always maintained that you don't have to spend silly money to do well. Chris' (ScoobyScene)budget including 2 club races a month is probably realistic (wonder if he can remember me spannering for him when Andy was a novice). Remember though, you do not need to do the club races. If you are good you don't need the time and could spend the money more efficiently testing.

Incidentally completely understand Ian's point that 19k is beyond most peoples budget (is the average family income 22k?) and apologies for no pound symbols, my stupid american keyboard doesn't have one.
