#3Do you already have kart experience?
I've tried a 125cc and those things are crazy fast enough to get right around a track, getting shifts in between is not healthy lol

#4There's a place in Ventura where I live I've had my
eye on to give a whirl..
A bit expensive but should be a total blast.

Boring, slow, and expensive. Super fun if you're age 12 or less.
One can compete in full-size vehicles for the price of competitive karting.

#10With every possible motorsport option open to them a lot of F1 drivers choose to do Kart racing as R&R when not working - They obviously dont find it booring.
I have driven in a few Kart endurance races and would place it as at least as much fun as the open wheel single seaters I have driven - Different but in its own way just as thrilling
Never driven a gear change Kart though, the races are so wheel to wheel and hectic its hard to know when you would have time to change gears!!
Have a go and I bet you come out grinning.
