Talk:Superkart

message: You could also say Formula One compete in hillclimbing, they do at Goodwood don't they? And they hold the track record too. You could even document your point with videos and all.
I cannot imagine why a 250 cc would do any better than KF1 on a short and twisted track and would be delighted to see time sheets proving me wrong (feel free to include ref. in the article). In the other hand. I have seen 125 gearbox running at 120 mph on long circuits and 250 cc Superkarts way over that at Magny-Cours this year. A long circuit is the only place where a Superkart can make good use of its power.

thread_title:  Short circuits? 

message: I suggest you guys skim through WP:Reliable sources.  This is not a RS. Edits that lack reliable sources can constitute original research - WP:OR. I'm very very ignorant on the subject matter here but please consider my recommendations. First, stop reverting each other's edits. You are both bordering on edit-warring. Second, file a request at the appropriate projects - like here. If that doesn't work petition an RFC.Wikifan12345 (talk) 01:17, 25 May 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: Third Opinion

message: I laughed when I saw this. Is this really a good title?
I agree, it must be a spectacle, but maybe a title that's a little more normal could be considered?

thread_title:  "spectacle" as a section 

message: "Long circuits" and "short circuits" are clearly and specifically defined by CIK-FIA technical and sporting regulations as well as by many other national governing bodies. I added 3 sources just on that particular point today, it should put this silly editing war to an end. - Wikigi | talk to me | 07:27, 16 June 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I have a few issues, and seemingly so do others, with the Superkart article at the moment.1. The distinction between the long circuit and short circuit is not needed in the article. It is the same reason why (in this article) we do not need to explain why kerbs are sometimes painted red & white, how an engine works, what exactly a tyre is etc. etc. Superkarts race on BOTH types of circuit (in the UK and other places it seems) thus the distinction between the two types of circuit is completely irrelevant to learning more about Superkarts, which is what the article is for. A list of examples of the circuits is useful but explaining the difference between long and short circuits is not. For example: A road car can drive on city roads, country roads, farm roads, gravel roads, narrow roads, inclining roads, wet roads, very long roads, slip roads, picturesque roads, Swedish roads, on bridges, in tunnels and many other places....but does the Wiki article for Cars mention this? NO, because its not needed in the article.2. I do not question the existence of the terms, so whilst sources are good they do not help the situation.3. Why are "Short Circuit" and "Long circuit" in quotation marks??? It isn't a quote and the use–mention distinction for quotation marks as you've used them is a) untidy for an encyclopedia and b) not really proper english. You've been corrected on it (literally more than 5 times) but you still insist on putting it back in. Why? Kartcrazy (talk) 13:40, 18 June 2011 (UTC)
replies: text:  Distinction is needed for the simple reason that Superkarts only race on one type of track (Long circuit) under CIK-FIA regulations. For the same reason MSA regulation make a point to define what "Long Circuits" are  (see pdf : Specific Regulations for Karting). Your point #3 is relevant, delete quotation marks if you see fit.ps: Where have you been for the last four years? Wikigi | talk to me | 16:51, 18 June 2011 (UTC)
