Whata crappy first impression.

Welcome to the forums, kartmaster!

1 hp would run it.
What is the real question or comment you are looking for?

 

[kartmaster]

What would be a reccomended hp to make it run well with offroad power?

 

[B man]

you have got a modified yerf-dog there. i have the same kart,but un-modded. yes with a Torque Converter any thing above 3.5 would work. but if your useing a centrifugal clutch then yes 5.5 or higher should do well.

 

[B man]

and those front tires aren't the best choice for that kart,unless you have modified the steering as well.

[kartmaster]

And thanks bigboy

 

[B man]

[kartmaster]

Go karts arent really popular in my city, we got a quiet little town here. So coming by with a good chance like that is rare

Yeah it has been cut off, i noticed that when i bought it. The Sides were removed and yeah the front was also messed with. But yeah, hopefully i find some metal to make me a roll cage

 

[kartmaster]

yeah they had a lot of work done with this, i was surprised they wanted to sell it for 50.

 

[B man]

the stock engine and clutch for this is 5.5hp tecumseh and a torque converter.
