Hi knowledgeable people,

Looking for a bit of advise really so will take anything on-board.

So after 10 years away from the sport thanks to college, university and work reasons, a recent house move has meant that I am now only 15mins away from Kimbolton (how coincidental...), and following a trip over to the circuit this past weekend to watch a clubby and Super 4 meeting, it made me realise just how much I miss the sport and the competition.

So now I want to see what routes there are to get back into it, and probably the most sensible thing to do is to have a practice in a proper kart to see if I still have it. So are there places out there that will let you hire a kart for a practice day? Im not fussed on having a new set of tires on it or anything just a basic kart that i can speed around in for the day?

The other thing is although i have an old CRG suit from back in the day, I'm guessing I wont be allowed to use this or am I wrong? In which case are there also places from where I can hire/borrow some race gear from as well just to practice in (helmet, suit, boots etc?


Any other advice would be gratefully appreciated. Thanks
