A note on Go-Karts
As a professional Jet Ski Racer. Sea-Doo sent us to two driving race car schools. They said if we new how to race on the 'track' it would help us in the water.

One school is the Baunderant School of Racing at Firebird Raceway in Phoenix and one is the START BMW Racing School in Orlando.

BOTH schools start you out in racing Go-Karts. These Karts go 80 to 120mph, you are two inches off the ground so it seems like you are going about 200mph.

Both schools said that with no suspension and being so close to the ground, that the karts were unforgiving, and that if you learned how to 'race a kart' you could race anything on 4-wheels. The top four NASCAR racers all got their starts in Kart Racing, and Danica Patrick who races Indy Car also got her start in Kart Racing.
