I agree, I think karting is great but MX is silly exhausting. There were times in the races I literally could not get my forearms/wrists to function...I had to drop my elbow to operate the throttle...funny but not a joke

The awesome thing about it was you were having so much fun with so much adrenaline flowing you didn't even notice you were tired in the traditional sense...you just noticed your body didn't work.

That being said I would love to get into karting with my boys, the mechanical side of it alone gets me geeked.
