Well I know this isn't a car but I have so much fun on this thing. I pieced this go kart together and have a hopped up 5hp briggs on it. It actually drifts pretty good, even on cement. So we decided to f*ck up the back yard more while our garage is gettin built! :crazy: Thanks for any comments!

My girlfriend took all these pics. She is taking a photography class, and she has just learned about panning shots. So this was one of her first ones!
I am gonna drop a SR20 in it next week! :ninja:

Well if you look around you are likely to run up on one somebody just wants to get rid of. That's how I got mine. The one I have is old, the older ones always seem better, and also it is for small kids.

Yeah upgrade. The motor that was on mine was a 3hp and I went up to a 5hp motor. Also I eliminated the governer, and ran bicycle cable up to the throttle so that it will run wide open! Also you can buy a brand new 5.5hp briggs motor for 200 bucks!

Also I am about to buy a shifter kart from a friend. He has gotten a lot older and can't ride it anymore so he's selling it to me cheap. He told me he has 2500 bucks in just the motor.
