I agree shifter karts are hella fun...in fact I'll probably get into professional karting just to get into the Mazda Kart series next season so I can punk the rest of those boys...and its less wear and tear than taking teh RX to teh track...cheaper too...

when you're going around a corner, you want sticky wheels so you don't drift and you can then get better times. i'm confused as to why you're confused

Well to this former racecar engineer, "rim" is the barrel part of the wheel, the part that is actually round. I hate how "rims" is now used to refer to the entire wheel. The wheel is the rims plus the wheel center, which is the part that has the spokes. With one piece wheels it's not as big of a deal, but when you have to deal with 3 piece wheels, you better get the terminology correct!
