That's a really good observation :idea2:
I did open up the throttle limiter, so I think I'll put it back where it was. Leave it up to dad (me) to break the new toy :P
It's a Carter A.C.E Lightning or Prowler? I was only able to ID it down to one of those or an earlier model from that series. Pics are in this album:

The driver might be generic, but the driven is stamped with Max-Torque. I'm assuming Carter...
Has anyone seen a garter spring failure like this on a weight assembly?
I'm wondering if it's just due to a worn out / weak spring, engine torque is too much, or there's too much load on the assembly unit (too much weight in the two person kart.)
One note, the engine is a Carroll Stream Honda...
