Richard's place has electric motors, doubtful they'd be able to tell at all.

And here you thought both pedals did the same thing...

On a kart track that's about 34-35 seconds/lap, about how much extra time does an extra 60-80 lbs of driver add? I hate it when these little kids beat me.

My karting buddies say that generally you lose a tenth for every 10lbs. you have on someone with equal skill. At the place I go to, the 2 Red Bull semi-finalists (both 17 yrs. old) are very skilled drivers, but they also weigh only 130lbs.
