Kids are moving to faster classes much more quickly now then when we started QMs 5 years ago. It used to be that a driver had to master their current class before they moved to a faster one. That doesn't seem to be the case any longer.
You misunderstood my post. I said we were in it for seven years. We have only been out of it for a couple of years. I still think that quarter midgets are the safest of race cars to put a child in. Why would anybody go to karting where you get ejected and then the Kart hits you.
