My son raced karts from age 7 to 12,
Bmods at 13
Amods at 14
Latemodels 15
I don't think I would have pushed it any earlier. But my kid was always a bigger kid than the others and was more mature than most. At least when it came to racing. I doubt you could find anyone that felt he was too young at the time. Maybe one or two that were jealous but that's about it.

When that 10 year old kills someone it will be a in court for a long time...Now in some states you cant even drive a car on your own land now if under age...In some states you can not get in a car and drive if its on land that is open to people if under age ,.. What state was this and check with the driving B to see what the law is...There is no state that it is allowed by law for a 10 year old to drive a car on or off the race track.... In Illinios it is 15 and most tracks here will not let you on the track if you ant...

That sounds reasonable. I worked with my youth group of 8-12 year olds and I love them. However I would not want to race with them just yet.Originally posted by westlingracing View PostMy son raced karts from age 7 to 12,

For your state it is 15 by law the cops could arrest him for being in that car....Originally posted by tsand View PostYesterday at opening day at cherokee speedway Ahanna Parkhurst spun in hot laps another crate car plowed in to her . Looked totally avoidable. The other car was driven by a ten year old. My thoughts is the is no way in hell a ten year old should be in a crate car. You thoughts
Had too add: I would have him pay for what he did to my the car that he hit or I say I am calling the cops and him put in jail he is not allowed in a car on or off the track till hes 15 in South Carolina If hes been arrested for it would add 2 years be for he could even apply to get a lic......
Bobby P 32 got out of his BMod in to a Create on his 15 BD.....Cause they knew it was the Law...Last edited by Cardirt0; 02-28-2017, 10:09 AM.

10 yrs old in a late model ? Whats the promotor thinking ? Why are the parents letting this happen ? Do they think there kid is the next Jeff Gordon or Tony Stewart ? Does anyone have a background on this kid ? There is young talent out there. But, I think at his age he may have needed to prove he is ready ? And maybe he did, by broadsiding the car he hit. Maybe it's going to get parked until he's ready.

Don't know about the law but I know a 14 year old will be racing a limited late model in April. What's their ruling on what kind of car you have to be 15 in. I know a lot of legend drivers started younger than that.Originally posted by Cardirt0 View PostNot if someone pushs the state law ILL for Late models you must be 15...look it up i did..
