lol true. im feeling good right now. gots the docs meds in me. i bent the roll bar in front and bent one of the steering arms. il fix that later with a long crow bar. Im seriously impressed on how this thing carries a 350lb man.
i will work on that later. So. got to test drive it saturday night. It met way beyond our expectations. im a big dude (350lb) and it pulled me around with ease. Buddy of mine is 150lb wet and he was a little scared of it. We didnt clock the top speed as it was almost dark but im totally happy...
I will get a video of it. Im now debating on what colors to paint it. its a ugly mix of faded purple and green. Im considering a gallon of that roll on or even the spray on rhino truck bed paint.

You just saved me some money.

im still looking for answers on my first post but!
If anybody knows what...
Well guys. Im 33 years old. NEVER had one and wanted one as a kid. I was hauling a van to the crusher and came across from research is a carter brothers go kart with a predator 212 engine. The number on the axle tube is 1708. Upon googling i found a pdf file of the diagram and part #s. cart is...
