How did it turn out? I have been toying with this idea. The kart Im building is a small two seater. The brake control is on the far left side of the cart. I have a couple of small kids that I will be teaching to drive and I thought an E brake might be nice. Reaching the brake would take a few...

Yes sir

I need a pair of carter 6" wheels. They are steel 4x3 1/8. Thanks

I would suggest before you take anything apart or messing with the set up run some seafoam through it. Put some in the gas and the oil even pour some in to the air intake. This kinda of stuff has brought to life many car and small engines that have sat for a long time. Most recently on my...

I had to bend a couple frame bars on my kart. I sat it on a work table and set up some ratcheting straps to pull and straighten the bars. It worked great. I looped the nylon webbing over the kart bar and hooked the hooks together either under the table or hooked directly to to the table...

I live in Utah and I cant begin to explain how mind blowing the Salt Flats are. I came across this announcement in a race car forum that Im sure you would all be interested in. Im tempted to build one just to say I have raced it at the salt flats. http://www.saltflats.com/Kart%20Racing.html

Prepare to become a junkie I was or still am in your same boat. I lurked around this forum for months as I looked around for a cart. I began to get an idea of what parts are really expensive or hard to come by. Then as I searched for karts I new what I was looking for. I ended up finding a...

I wanted to paint paint a couple of parts to match my HF Blue engine to make it look like it goes with my kart. Does anyone one know which paint matches or the paint code?

Thanks. Ill be working on it this weekend and send you the pics. Thanks for not leaving me hanging. I was getting worried that my simple project was taking a back seat to all the much cooler projects.

I'm new the to the forum and have seen people get up set by double posting so I wanted to ask first that I get some insight on where and when can I post. I have kept my log in the the project section but it dropped to the bottom of the page with no help with the questions I had asked. So...

Pedal Mount Suggestion When I looked at the front hoop for a roll bar I wondered if you mounted your pedals from that. http://www.jegs.com/i/Wilwood/950/340-3950/10002/-1?parentProductId=744524 You could cut or disasemble the bracket. I had these on an old race race car...It was my first go...

Blaz, My family has always been independent business owner and I look forward to working with you on my project. The website for your company is a little hard to shop from being that I do most of internet shopping in the middle of the night. Anyway what's the best way to solicit help/ parts...

Interesting Front Suspension The front spindles are attatched to a independant cross member by a 1" bolt. The travel is limited by two L shaped tabs attatched to the front of the frame. Im not sure of how it works other than I think it would be noisy. At this point Im looking for advise on...
