Speed comes with seat time and confidence... and karts do not = cars, you do have to adjust your inputs.

Steering inputs in a kart can be much more immediate, but with significantly less magnitude than a car.


As far as an aspirations of being an amateur driver, I find a good dose of Alex Lloyd's column on Jalopnik is also a good way to keep those ambitions and daydreams in-check... driving around in parking lots and airport runways is freakin' expensive enough!
