I don't understand why these go carts need to be "close" and all the same. Adjusting rules so that they are all close and even contests.
That's the bloody problem with this type of racing more rules/restrictions is always the answer. Use to be the superior car and driver could smash the rest and made a statement!

Anyway, I don't like it and that's just my opinion. But I can tell you if the dinner plate badges weren't allowed (and should they be?) the public support they do have would drop off.
Most people support a marque/brand and not necessarily a driver or team. Put the exact same cars out there with Kia, Skoda and Daihutsu skins with dinner plate badges and lets see the crowds.
