    4X4 Kart?

    i too have thought about a 4 wheel drive kart (or buggy should i say)..... it can happen, obviously its going to cost a bit. just look at a 4 wheel drive quad. that would be the easiest way to go about making it. if u can get ahold of the drive drain on a totaled 4wd quad then all u would have...

    200cc lifan 5 speed engine

    funny that was one of the engines i was looking at on ebay last night.... the only draw back i see is there is no reverse. but if the kart is light enough it shouldnt be a problem to pick it up and turn it around. plus u have manual shifting...... that makes even more fun IMO. mike
