    YouTube Marco Ardigo

    Marco Ardigo is the best racing driver that ever lived. Ferrari tried to recruit him to replace Michael Schumacher in their F1 team but he turned them down.

    Marco has beaten every F1 driver.

    It's nice to see such passion, even when misplaced…

    when you say 'proper' do you mean RACMSA with license? If so it's more a question of how much do you want to spend (or can afford to), a kart will cost you upwards of £1500 (with engine), it sounds a bit cheap but the up keep of that kart will cost you a lot more, if you want that Kart to be competitive it's gonna cost a lot more (I know someone who spends upwards of £2,000 for 1 set of bearings).

    On the other hand you could just book into a 'open to all' pro kart race at a local track for £50-£100, which is far cheaper. Some tracks run series, and I believe there's an unofficial British prokart championship. I went to Buckmore on Monday night (storm conditions so much fun!!!) and now I'm umming and ahing over whether to join their winter series (6 races at £125 each). here's a link http://www.buckmore.co.uk/
