  Where are you located? The NCK is hosting a race at Laguna Seca on January 9th. There should be a large field of 250cc karts there.

  250 superkarts are what I think you are talking about? Some are single cylinder (ICE) some are twins. Many drivers run the likes of CRF450’s also. Even if that’s not what you’re thinking, it’s about as fast as you’re going to get. Jonny west had a gixxer based superkart TAG project going a few years ago that was positively insane.
  
  Anyway, you won’t see them on a typical sprint course, too tight for them to flex their power but they usually run in “unlimited” type classes in road racing on the big tracks like Mid Ohio, Infineon and so on.
  
  See if there’s a road race near you, tweak the search distance if you need to:

  I’m still working on adding the remaining road race events in the US. I think I have about 30% captured there right now.

  Thank you, I’m east of Mid Ohio and the Race in Indiana I saw in July. Mid Ohio is not a long drive for me. Spectator wise, I quit going to long tracks because of not being able to see much of the track from any vantage point. I do though want to make and see this year a big stuff left/right kart race. Sounds like UAS power on a road course and sounds like fun to watch and for those riding the things. … :)
  
  again thank you James
