Good Morning forum!
Joined the group to sit in the background and read up as much as I can.
I've always wanted a go-kart, and aside from driving those on the track, I've never owned one myself.
My wife and I are getting a new house built (almost done!) and I figured as a treat I'd build one for myself. Just bought the infamous Predator 212cc engine from HF on sale as my intro to the hobby.
Little about me, I'm a welder/fabricator for work, former LEO and Marine (disabled vet). So dabbling into this hobby should be really easy! I'm an avid off-roader too so building things up is something I already do.
Look forward to talking to some of you in the threads to come, and learning a lot about what's what.
With that out of the way, I have my sights set on a Teantech centrifugal clutch, 10T as I plan to keep it a 1-person kart. I don't know what tire size to go with or live axle options. If anyone wants to throw some parts lists I'd be happy to look into it!
Thanks
