Neither does "Combat". Why the hell can't they just spell things correctly for a change?

Ah, I love the smell of hypocrisy in the morning. A topic about the spelling of a game name...and you think it was completely serious?

kart ( P ) Pronunciation Key (kärt)
n.
A miniature car used in racing. Also called go-cart.


So there it is, the correct spelling is Kart, although Blank's preferred spelling of "Cart" is *also* correct. Which is to say it might get you marks on an exam paper, but everyone know's it's wrong ;)

"Kart" came from "cart". Spelling it with a K has become accepted.

Accepted enough to be in the english dictionary, and therefore universally correct you mean?
