Very sad...
150 mph with no seatbelts...really scary to watch! ....and a deceptively hard form of motorsport....

My cousin races in this class, and I often go along to help out on the kart. These guys are some of the bravest and most talented around, yet don't seem to get the recognition they deserve as the heart and soul of motorsport.

Sincere condolences to the family.

My thoughts go out too the family and friend, terrible accident.

I was thinking about getting a Super Kart, but changed my mind after doing more reseach into the sport. For me it is just to fast for a kart at that speed.
