    The 125 Zuma is where it's at. Still have ours for no other reason than it's super handy to not have.

    It’s a shame E-bikes are as expensive as a scooter. They’d be ideal, otherwise.

    Another vote for the Zuma 125.
    I even use mine for around town errands.

    That's where I'm leaning as I've also been using the little Zuma to put around on, it just doesn't have any juice left.

    Of course this is the obvious answer, but then you get in to how much stretch is enough, and in which pit(s)is more going to be better.
    Let's not even get started on LED's or rear tire widths. We could be here for days, and the poor old OP will end up walking for 1/2 of the season.

    That’s why I sold my Zuma 50 for a 125.
    My 125 does 50 mph with my fat ass on it. Add the under seat storage and it becomes pretty practical.

    ZUMA 125

    Had one since 2009 when they first came out. Swiss Army knife of scooters.

    I started with a Ruckus and it was ideal in the pits but too slow for the road. I then moved to a Zuma 125, which was better on the street but bigger, heavier, and less floorboard space in the pits. Just sold it and I’m doing the Grom/trailer deal this year. The Grom has been a lot of fun tinkering with, so hopefully I like this setup.

    Something else to consider is that at least a few tracks don’t allow non-licensed pit vehicles, so no bicycles, golf carts, dirt bikes, 4-wheelers, electric gizmos, etc. I assume that’s an insurance thing.

    I’ve thought about an e-scooter because of how little space it would take up in my van. I’m not sure how easy it would be to carry tires on though.
