    I just tried the karts some days ago. First the "normal" ones and they were quite ok imo. Not my cup of tea I guess, but it was ok. However, then I tried the superkarts on a small, not just karts track and boy......what a ride! I just can't stop smiling, these things are so immersive and fun to drive! And I have never been a big kart fan, but this is insane. If you try these on tracks like Salvador, Velo Citta (narrow, short circuits) you're going to be rewarded!

    Thanks Reiza.

    I haven't raced them much but yes I agree with you, they are an absolute blast to drive.

    Last year I did a track experience driving 125cc superkarts at a track in the UK and I can certainly confirm they are totally insane! I think I reached about 90mph :) That was just 125cc singles, the ones in the game are 250cc twins which are way faster.

    It's a real shame with some kart sims coming out that they haven't included karts like the superkarts as well, simply because they are great fun (the others can get a bit boring after a while), and also (I hate to say it) they are not exactly the safest racing vehicle in the world so better to crash in the sim world (having witnessed a poor guy end up in hospital when I was on that experience day...)

    The power to weight ratio of these things is mind boggling.

    The Superkarts have been substantially improved over AMS development relative to its original release, nice to see it getting a bit more love :)
