MLF,
Good luck. I seriously looked at them but had no luck. The West Coast distributor wouldn't answer my repeated e-mails and Arrow in Australia won't sell directly to US customers. I found a shop in AUS that would sell me one but importing it, clearing it through customs, set-up support, and spares would have been a nightmare.

I'd stick with one that a nearby shop can help you with.

My buddy races a Tony and I'm picking up a Trackmagic next week. So far so good!

MLF,
I recently had a chance to drive an Arrow AX6.
I moved from KT100 to 80 shifters and had to race the last race to protect my points in the championship at our club. The Arrow is a great chassis. I've never driven one before that day(Always been on Invaders) I finished second in the main and only had 6 laps on the chassis. I would recommend contacting Pat Hubbell.(hubbell2000@email.msn.com I think is his e-mail adress) He can be found all over the forums. He's got alot of experience with Arrow(recent IKF Champ) and can direct you to Bill Pinzini the nor cal dist for Arrow. Bill was gracious enough to loan me the kart at the final race of the season. The kart was easy to drive. And is definately a consideration for me in 2002.

I'm looking to get into karting,leaning towards the Rotaxmax and looking to see if anyone has any experience with Arrow chassis.I've looked at Trackmagic and Tonykart and leaning towards one of those so far. Any helpwith that or another chassis would be great.

Being that your located in or near Chicago, I would point you in the direction of CKT Motorsports. They are located in Elburn, IL.

They deal in Trackmagic and the formerly known as Tracy Karts. Both the Trackmagics and Ex-Tracys are excellent machines.

CKT is also a full service shop with a many time championship winning engine room, full parts dept, chassis, tuning advice and anyting else you need(including help).

Give Corey, Jerry, or Jim at CKT a call at (630)365-6733.

Thats my two cents.

Steve

The Arrow is in my opinion the best chassis I have ever driven. I have driven Invader,Margay,Emmick,CRG,CTS,Bug and Arrow. They are to the best of my knowledge the only chassis that is stress relieved. The attention to detail, fit/finish and performance is second to none.
The Arrow is the most responsive chassis that I have driven so far. A 5mm change in track width can be felt instantly.

Someone mentioned difficulty in making contact with an Arrow representative. There can be many reasons why contact was never made, I can assure you if you are interested in an Arrow that I personaly will assist you.

MLF,

The Arrow kart is the best kart I have ever driven. I have been racing for 9 years now and have never seen a kart with such attention to detail. They just work awsome and last a long long time. If you have any questions on them you can give us a call at 805.238.7060 ask for John or you can email me directly. Good luck.
