weights for 125gb

I agree with you there Owen but I'm talking about the nationals where the weights will be in forced.

9 out of ten hey Rolf, are they all contestants for the biggest loser and if so why move the weights for a class to suit someone to unfit to complete at the front anyway?
Or is it that a certain brand of kart is just over weight?

At 78 you will be on the money in a 125 that's not built out of old railway tracks Ant :-).
Sounds like you have been eating for two again mate :-)

Cool mate.

Yep mine is about 100 give or take with fuel.

Jesus Mem, that's heavy.

Ok well maybe stock Honda should stay at 180 and 125 open class with all the extra stuff should be 190 we have 3 guys running in the open class here that way in at 205 to 212 in total. Myself, Brett Purdie and Dave Brewer but where not greedy that will do or 195. lol

Mike just out of curiosity what extra stuff does a 125GB have over a Stock Honda? A rear wing on most?
If you guy's all weigh in at around the same as Brett then it's fair to say that none of you are are going to get a gig playing tinker bell right :-)

Jase, why do you keep making out like all the drivers in 125 GB are fat bastards? Does it make you feel better about yourself? The karts are heavier, we have a full floor, pods, nose, wing, uprights, larger radiator, more pluming, electric fuel pumps and larger engine mounts. Full size seats, larger fuel tanks, more chassis raiI, larger tyres, front uprights, larger crash bars and so on and so on, the list could go on forever. The weight is mainly in the design of the kart. 90% of the stuff on your brm you can buy off a shelf cause it's mass produced and made of light materials cause sprint karters break things and change things more often than i cange my underwear. Those of us with older superkart style chassis don't have that luxury, i usually have to make parts for my kart myself, i need to make them strong enough to last so they are heavier. My kart has gone over the scales at 213kg before, and at that point in time i only weighed 78kg. That's not to say however i haven't seen an avoig or stockman or two go over the scales very close to 180kg. Some of us just have more important things to focus on than weight.

I don't want the weight changed, but i'd appreciate if you cut the crap about other people being unfit and overweight, it's just not needed mate.

So your kart is light? Put your thinking cap on and bolt your weight somewherw where you will have a handling and weight advantage over us, rather than getting on here and being a dick to everyone about it.

If people are upset about the weights, they can buy and identical copy of your chassis cause their so light. When you come out and beat the pants off us all this year i'm sure there will be a lot of people that will follow suit.

If i have offended you Jase, call me, you have my number, i haven't meant to.

What the *censored* is up your arse junior? If you are referring to the tinker bell comment then you should know that I am good mates with Brett and he's obviously not as delicate as you.
It's a valid question Doug as there is a push to put the weights up and I wanted to get a feel for what people thought of this.
Why would I want to bolt weight on Doug, I already have a handling advantage over you.
If you don't want the weights up then just say so. I'll be at QR next weekend if you want to get personal.
In short it's a constructive thread Doug so leave this shit out and talk to me about any beef you have like a man. Very disappointed.

Accepted, thanks for the call mate, I'll talk to you tomorrow when I'm not on dinner duties.

Well I've changed my mind, I didn't realize that a particular kart brand is so heavy that one of its drivers has decided to drill holes through his chassis to shed the weigh. Kind of mates a cut in a crash bar seem pretty insignificant doesn't it.
Put the weights up if you are that desperate, I'll just use it to corner weight mine so it's even faster through the corners.

Won't name name's but it's NSW Owen so a quick look around the pits at Wakefield should get your answer if he's running.

In team America they would have said Horry shit :-)
