they take a lot of skill to maintain and set up properly. not to mention it will be wayyy too fast for you. If you want to kart, start with a simple gas brake karts. they are a lot cheaper to maintain and to purchase.
Think != purchase

Unless there is a new law against thinking out loud.
You are right I am going to start with a gas/brake kart if I do get one.
