Many agree that KZ karts are the category of karting that best expresses the brutal nature of the vehicle to date. On one hand, this is because it is in the shifter categories that pro-drivers in the discipline concentrate: those who have been racing for 20 years are there. Mature drivers are there. The exciting races to watch, especially if the drivers are those mentioned above, belong to this category. On the other hand, it must be said that karting originated as an adult sport, in its own way dangerous, spartan, extremely fast, impossible, and these characteristics were possessed by the very first competition karts, those that today seem less performing than a Mini Gr.3, but were able to provide racing car emotions to those who had never experienced one. Today, the equivalent of that vehicle, sadly, is not the OK - although absurdly fast (and dangerous), and formative to modern feeder series single-seaters - but the KZ. This is where you test yourself if you are a driver grown in karting and want to continue in karting, even after 30 years. It’s where former World Champions (there are quite a few, you know...) return to race, and it is where you prove yourself to be someone today. Formula 1 drivers willingly drive them for half a day, but then each of them is keen to emphasize how physically demanding it is, and there is no rookie who, after driving one for the very first time, can walk straight the next day. Thank God for KZ ❤️😱😱😱
