What next?
Well now you need to get organised, there are a few things you need to think about.
1. New or used Easykart ?
The Easykart design doesn’t change so used residule values are good. You can find karts on our approved section. The only reason to go for used in our opinion is your budget and cashflow. You can replace major parts on your easy as it gets older but this obvioulsy takes money and dependant on the time frame you can soon realize the same cost of a new easy. The important thing is to get involved so feel free to call the ACR office 01527 889595 and select option 1 if you need more info on any used easykart. We want you racing in easy whether on a used or new easy! The lower the racing number of the kart the older it is. For example karts with race numbers 10 to 80 are from 2006 >2008 numbers 126 > 173 are 2009 > 2010 in the senior Easykart range.
2. To place your order for new !
Easykarts are delivered every 6 weeks and are sold in consignments. To be sure to reserve your kart you can pay a £420 deposit and reserve your place in a consignment of your choice.
We have produced a quick start set up guide for Easykart newbies ..
3. Get Licensed
All drivers racing in Easykart UK must have at least a national B novice kart licence from the MSA. If you are a begginner you need to purchase a “Start Karting Pack” from the MSA click here. The cost is approx £50 and this fee is payable to the MSA. The pack includes advice and the application for your ARKs test – this is the driving test if you like for racing karts ! some medical questions need to be answered as well as general information about yourself. After all this paperwork is completed when you are ready you can apply for your ARK’s test with an approved karting school.
At this point its wise to get a few practice days in so you are confident and up to a reasonable speed on your EasyKart. Once you are happy you need to find a karting school/ examiner. Easykart UK work with Protrain who are based at Whilton Mill and Motorsport World who are based at Rye House. Preferential rates are given by these schools for Easykart owners.
