Karting is the epitome of parity racing and it is just as unsuccessful there as in car racing. What happens is the field initially closes up but the well founded teams start spending big money for very small incremental increases in performance just as F1 has done. The closer you get to the brick wall of rules the smaller the incremental increases become and the more money is spent for less results but that does not stop the money being spent. The less well off teams are then left floundering because they cannot match the spending. Every attempt at trying to create parity eventually fails because the intention never matches the facts.
