Mark's hit the nail on the head - the plan is to get into some form of motorsport and enjoy myself while gaining some form of experience.
Karting offers cheap entry, local clubs which limits travelling around (I have a young family) and running costs are relatively low.
While I am karting, I shall be saving enough money to buy and prep for car racing - preferbly in a class where, like the karting, it's about fun
rather than big budgets.
I have the desire to be a competetive racer eventually, but I'm 31 years old so unlikely to ever achieve much so might as well stick with the
fun side of things.

Well, got myself a rolling chassis on ebay, so looks like I'm going down the 2 stroke route.
Just need to get a set of wheels (or several sets with tyres) and an engine - probably TKM extreme.
