To be competitive at KPX races we have to run a new set on practice day and race day. That’s $450.00 a weekend for tires. It’s BS.
But without them you’re 2 tenths off and that’s a mile when 1st and 2nd are sometimes separated by a couple thousands.
We will be moving to the teen Miata challenge mid season next year while running Pro Kart series. And try to get competitive in Miata by 2021 season.
I’ve been struggling with the fact I may never get to build my 74 because of racing costs. I may set on it for a couple more years until we figure out if he has real talent. Otherwise I’ll be selling to fund F3.

What is a Miata? Is that a Jpanese car?
