      First Kart is under the Birel banner, however, I am not sure how close the parts are to Birel components.

      Thanks David. That is interesting. Can you share what you mean by under the Birel banner?

      I see from old news stories that you tested one when they first came out in the early 2000s. Do you recall how they might fare today?

      Thanks, Samir.

      Samir,

      What David is saying about the banner is that yes Birel made the First Kart at one point in time.

      For instance. CRG makes the DR Kart, Zanardi, LH, Maranello, GP Racing, Dino Kart.

      Here’s a link to the latest homologation that shows the maker of the kart.

      As far as the First Kart, under the right hands the kart can be fast.  Any kart can be fast in my opinion.

      Gary
