As you can imagine, there aren't many films of morons starting their karts with rope and getting ...... unlucky.....! So, lot's of (stupid) people think it's ok......

However, I have found one video that you should see and just MIGHT show you why it's not that good an idea!

Now, I'll bet that the 'clever' ones of you know that the rope could slip and give you a rope burn, so..... you wrap the rope round your hand/wrist a couple of times before pulling. Luckily, the guy in this video didn't do that..... but.... had he been a 'clever' karter, he would have. You can imaging what would happen.....

Yes, rope starting works..... in the same way that putting a shotgun to the tooth that's hurting you and pulling the trigger also 'works' to stops the pain.....

Be aware, if you use a rope..... it's only a matter of time before it gets you or another karter doing the same trick!

Enjoy the video..... while imagining the rope being wrapped around his wrist/hand!
