I see no problem as long as there is a six foot lead on whoever is following.

Oh, and yes, those are legos zip tied to the pedals.
Because who doesn't put their 4 year old in 45mph go kart... |

Thanks man. I'd love to say it's all for him but I'm pretty sure I enjoyed it more than anybody.
The friend that helped me get everything together has an 8-year-old that's out kicking everybody's ass right now. Drew has been wanting to hop in and race for the last 2 years. 🤣 |

I raced go karts when I was 25 to about 30 and had a hell of a lot of fun plus the racing skills you learn are still in place today. I ran Briggs stock in med and heavy classes plus the KT-100 class in med and heavy. I raced at Oreville Kart Club https://orevillekartclub.org/ plus ran a few National events that were somewhat local. ( puts the local big dogs in their place ) It's good racing that doesn't break the budget |

I stopped racing just before the karts went "high tech" with all kinds of chassis adjustments. Camber adjustment front axles just came out that year. |

It's all relative. The 8-10 year old karts are damn near full size car dollars (if you want to win). Even the kid karts are fully adjustable, multiple engine packages, etc. I think I have officially gone from driver to crew chief as of this afternoon. Crazy. |

Have some in-laws that started in karts and worked his way up to the winged carts.
I was jealous. |

Brings back memories. Here is mine back in 1976 with me when I was 21.
Lot of fun which explains why I did not have a lot of girl friends. All my money went to my 2 cars (1971 El Camino & 1967 VW Bug), dirt bike, street bike, kart, and a radio control buggy. Also had a slot car. Don't have pics of the other stuff. |
