How Does It Compare?

Some have said that it is the closest thing to a F/1 or IndyCar. That may be an exaggeration........maybe not

Car Weight i kg Horsepower   Ratio
F/1 600 800-900 0,66
IndyCar 700 800 0,875
Superkart 130 90 1,44 *
Indy Lights 630 425 1,48
Ford GT 40 Mk IV 990 500 1,98
BMW M3 1700 350 4,85

*"IF" you had a '98/'99 Aprilia 250 V-twin GP bike engine on your kart producing 110 HP the ratio would be 1.18!
