Default Gixxerkart vs. Dodge Viper

Check out this race with Sabine Schmitz, very entertaining to see! Achim is sideways the whole time

That was new for me too... I've read it's a German Motor TV Show with Sabine Schmitz, Tim Schrick and Katjuschka Altmann.

And yeah, the Gixxerkart is really fast... 0-100km/h in 2.7s

Yeah I agree, but boy do I want to have a go with that gixxxerkart!

0-100km/h in 2.7s isn't too far off from what a 125cc shifter does..

having driven a few 125cc shifters i agree. They are a ton of fun, and are really faster than you need

I've only driven a 125cc Rotax-Max kart, no shifter... and it was already more entertaining than the Clio racer!

Funny thing - the car is cheaper to maintain...
I need to drive on those one day !

The kart probably also uses more fuel that the Clio Racer

a 125cc kart barely uses any fuel It's a tiny 2 stroke that has to move a mere 300lbs..

I maybe bought 6 or 8 gallons of 110 sunoco racing fuel total for a whole summer of karting on the weekends

It's damn fun, and damn cheap. You just need a proper kart track near by..

Maintenance isn't all that expensive if you go the Honda route and are not competitively racing.

Oh ok

Well I imagine that the one where Dani was in the automatic 125 CC kart uses more then a 125 cc shifterkart

Oh I see, my bad 8)
