Flatspot should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
What Do I Need?

Just getting my son started in Jr. Rotax. He is 14 and weighs 87lbs. (40kg) I've purchased the following: Helmet/Driving Gear, base enclosed trailer (small 12'x6'), and am in the process of making final decisions on the kart. We have decided quite definatively on a new Tonykart Racer chassis (if you have any reason we should stay away from this chassis, please speak up). It will come turnkey so it has everything necessary to be Rotax legal such as the beadlocks on the wheels etc., however, it will not include data aquisition in the base package and any input is appreciated.

What I really am asking input on is what should I have in the trailer to start out and reduce the risk of being caught out without the proper tools, spares, etc. I don't want a kid bumming out because he can't race because we came unprepared.

Thanks for any help and advice!
