Billy, since you are interested… one popular vlog is by a guy called Matt (trueracer). He has a couple seasons of his trials and tribulations driving a shifter kart in skusa events. It’s an interesting series in that it’s more about the journey than the karting per se. I think it goes by “A real karting life” on YouTube. As a non Californian, it does shed some light on the cultural phenomenon of in and out burger.
Here’s a thread that was fun… Karting Video Showdown
