Crazy Kart Racing

[Pompeo Mixon]

TLDR: I had to calculate 4 seasons of racing to finally find a point where an individual racing in X30 senior would be spending over $10,000 a year on karting. At that point the driver was competing both in both regional and local competitions. Essentially, club racing is about $4,000 to compete in given you have the equipment already. Regional racing totals out around $8,000 for 5 weekends of driving, 10 racedays in total.

@Aaron_Hachmeister_13 Good breakdown, but I think the long and short of it is that club level costs can depending on how much you race, how many new tires you buy, if you have someone maintain your equipment vs doing it yourself and what equipment you get (new/used/good/crappy).

I included extra practice days in my discussion with this person. It came out to about $778/race. Yours came out to around $448/race. It makes sense, X30 vs. 206 and Animal. Like you said, theres a lot of extra variables that can change stuff though, like whether the weekend was also a family vacation.

I just ran the numbers that would be associated with me and my Son to participate in Karting and I was astounded at the costs of being competitive. I see the correlation simply because the more you want to be on the podium, you must first be a competitive driver with proven skills. Then one must have one of the fastest if not the fastest because there is a point where mechanics will prevail, tires, gas, tuned, etc.,.

If I have more power to pull away from you on the straight aways ( a few horse power more ) and that driver has good skills, it will be much harder not impossible just much harder to take and maintain the lead. To get thoses extra horse power that makes a difference folks use VORTEX type engines premanufactured for race and rebuild the engine during the race season, fresh tires each race compared to the racer that uses his for 3 to maybe 4 races, or just pushes the quality of the operational limits of manufactured parts.

Simple advice, is go to a local kart dealer like Huggler Racing Engines, and tell him what your budget is to get started. A kart dealer will help you get some scope on cost and expense, in a real world way.

Being planful with the the resources you have (ie, actually do a budget)

Adjusting your expectations according to that. (Example, trying to run a shifter on a 206 budget, it can be done, but not very well. Ask me how I know)

I was eight years old when I first played Super Mario Kart. The Super Nintendo title was fast-paced and chaotic, and I spent untold hours racing around the Mushroom Kingdom, dodging banana skins and koopa shells in frantic split-screen battles against my friends.

Over the years, the Mario Kart series has revved its way across generations of consoles. While it has inspired a string of knock-offs and imitators, no video game has come close to matching its furious, frenetic, and gloriously slapstick approach to racing.

Crazy Karts, from French designer Charles-Amir Perret, is a team-based game for up to eight players. It hands participants control of unpredictable vehicles crewed by an assortment of fantasy creatures. Playing as elves, dwarves, goblins, or mummies, you attempt to cross the finish line ahead of your rivals while struggling to keep your kart in one piece despite environmental hazards, aggressive rivals, and your own vast ineptitude.

Another shortcoming is how the game consists of two separate races: a Formula One-style qualifier followed by a final contest to determine the overall winner. Like Mario Kart before it, Crazy Karts works best when it provides short bursts of fun; over the course of two rounds it starts to feel a bit thin. My gaming group was more than happy to play a single, all-or-nothing race before moving on to something else.

The game presents the player with seven different colored racers to play as when they start the game. When a selection for a racer is made, the game will then present five different tracks for the player to race in. All tracks have the player race against 6 computer controlled racers and appear to only have one lap, with each track being set in a different photorealistic locale. If the player gains enough speed while racing, a N2O meter will fill up, which can then be used to gain a temporary speed boost. Throughout each track, a set of two orbs with question marks will appear that will give racers an item when driven into. Most of these items are weapons, which can be used on any other nearby racer to impede their progress. When a weapon is used on a racer, an animated portrait of the targeted racer at a front-facing view will appear depicting how the weapon will affect them. Once the player finishes a lap, if they enter the top 3, then the game will show a screen with the top 3 racers (including the player) on a podium. Regardless of the player entering the top 3 or not, the game will then go back to the track select screen. If the player wins a race on a track, the track on that screen will have a ribbon on top of it.

The game has an ending that is shown when the player places in the top 3 of all five tracks. It depicts a red racer driving in their kart on a rainbow ramping up above the racetrack while kissing a trophy and giving a peace sign (the racer chosen at the start of the game does not change this), along with the words "WIN" and "CONGRAULATION" (sic) on screen. The border of the racetrack also has the name "NATURE COLOR SOFTWARE" on it. Nature Color is an older name used by the Chinese company Nice Code Software, who used to develop video game software for various platforms. The presence of this name strongly suggests that Nice Code developed this game.

The game only ever plays one song on the select screens and during races, which is a simple looping MIDI-like tune. The music that plays on the title screen and end screen is a short sample from the Valentino, Inc. production song "Sailing", which was composed by Walter Murphy. The win screen that is shown when the player places in the top 3 plays a different sampled song.

Crazy Kart has a few items that the player and other racers in a race can use to put the odds in their favor, all of them based on items from the game it is based on, Crazyracing Kartrider.
