How about Karting, lots of the drivers still use Karting to keep fresh, lots of places to race and if you're looking, probably get a good deal on a package and probably get it in your pickup

Greetings:
If you are flying solo at the track, 600 Micros could be the way to go. They are push button start and you can trailer them on something as simple as a single axle utility trailer. No need for a 4 wheeler to push it to the grid and at about 600 pounds, you can load them in an out by yourself. It is very close to a full-on midget in terms of lap times at bullrings and they have various classes you can run on any given night. I suggest you contact Rodney Stealy at Concept Chassis in Wyatt, Indiana (15 miles south of South Bend). He will have everything you need to get started and now that it's the end of the season he probably has buy-backs that are just about race-ready. Their team trailer will be at the track each week with whatever you need. Racing is not an investment. With that understanding, go for it.

I am in Noblesville. I have been going to Kokomo or Circle City Raceway every weekend. I have met some good people and started to make some connections. Now I just need to sell my 2nd "fun" car so I can buy a race car! Hoping that I will be rolling come this next spring!
