Dang she’s grown , how many fire suits have you had to buy.
If you are staying in open wheel get her in a midget ASAP , some drivers stay in karts past the window. If you are going asphalt find her a legend car and track if oval racing.
Road course stuff I am not sure what kids move up to these days.

Easy to see why you're so proud - congrats on some learning experiences and time together.

moto, post when they drop the covid restrictions, I will come watch a couple. https://www.ntkarters.com/Due to federal and local mandates for social distancing to reduce the risk of spreading the COVID-19 virus NTK will be closed to the public. Only racers, members and their guests are allowed on the property until further notice.

That would be tough. But if you can’t can’t get DQ’ed then as they “ rubbin is racin and racin is good”. Return the favor I agree. But we were running 58 mph. Someone could've been seriously hurt. But on the other hand, I'm glad she finally said enough and dished it back. WOW I didn't realize they go that fast. I retract my recommendation. But yes its good for little Mo to stand up.

I’ve really enjoyed the past couple years that you have been sharing you and your daughters journey. I know nothing about racing. If she wants to keep racing what is after the karts she is racing now and when does that jump take place? And to add to that where all do y'all race. Anywhere in the Houston metro area?
She plans on racing karts for a while. We might try our hand at shifters. I progression would be through the Miata class, on to F4, and on up. But......she wants to go to college, then become a pilot in the military. Pretty proud of that.

Moto, if a guy has been racing for 20 years does this mean there is no age limit? Are there no rules as far as taking someone out? No age limit. It's 16 to whenever. Senior class. Moto is only 14......we got a waiver to move up early. There's generally penalties or black flag. This guy didn't get jack. He must've had a bad day. I plan on discussing it with him at the next race when everyone isn't heated.

Road course stuff I am not sure what kids move up to these days. Man, we just can't get into circle track. Dirt or asphalt. We can race Miatas soon if she wanted to. But she enjoys karts for now. So we'll roll with it.

The idea that Moto is waiting for me at the track, with a tire iron in his hand, about crashing his baby girl is the stuff of nightmares
