The local track (hour away) deals with Intrepid and Italkart I believe. That specific kart is definately one im interested in. I've done a little bit of research. Dean, how reliable is the Leopard? or how long before a top end rebuild etc? I'm not going to be competing, just going on practice days

Those are the two dominant chassis makes at our track, with SKM coming in third. Most popular model is the Intrepid Silverstone. The Leopard is an extremely low maintenance engine. With only occasional use, you can probably run it 2-3 years before having to do a top end.

Thats good to hear. I was at the track open house a week or so ago and saw all the different kinds of karts out just doing laps, no races. Looked like a lot of fun. Something I would really like to get into especially if it doesnt require me tearing apart an engine every couple hours of use.
