yesterday around 2ish i jumped a fence, of a old go kart track. i made my rounds then i spun out going in to the 4th turn, it shut off and i could not get it started again.... not knowing whats wrong, i picked it up and put it back in my trunk. went to a auto store and picked up some starter fluid, then tryed to start it.. it start reved up all the way then shut off! after that i knew the carb was shot.

r.i.p drift kart. i gots it last burn out.... i will post it later.. but for now it will have to sit until i get the new carb!

newest part:
http://i205.photobucket.com/albums/bb81/driftdayz/ca318rcgasket040.jpgCopper gasket is .040" thick, double the thickness of a stock gasket. By installing this gasket, you will increase your squish clearance, allowing installation of stroker crankshafts for increased engine displacement. This stronger gasket resists leaking and blowout.
i should be up to 30cc. now, i also got my new tires. and two new rims for the front. next step is a new head and bottom end:bump:
