Hi Leon,
Yes, we are an MG Sponsored club and all classes are required to have MG's in order to get points. You can race with any brand you want, but you will be DQ'd.
In terms of cost, a new set of MG's is around $200.00 and depending on how much you practice, they can last up to a season or maybe more. I've seen used sets in the 50-150.00 range, and again depends on how much they have left...
What you can do (I know purists of karting will disagree because of different setups) is to have a set for when you go to practice and another for race days.
