Just make sure you get a good helmet - they sell them at the kart shop at WL - and just hope you never have to use it!

With no oil in the engines you can stand the karts up on the back bumper so 40 degrees forward will be fine. In fact you could even be ok with the oil in as there is nothing at the front that can get oiled up.

The advantage of the prokart grid is there is normally someone will help out with trolleys and kart recovery.

£2k will get you a good 08 7Kart rolling chassis but you also need engines. If you ask in the paddock at next race day there will normally be someone who knows kit for sale. Howard from Lucas Racing will be there both Saturday and Sunday and in addition to new MS karts he normally has a number of experienced bits of kit around. - Can't miss the Bling silver van!!
