if you are willing to spend that much money i would buy plans for a sidewinder or something like that and get like a 18 or 20hp engine it would be cheaper and probably with a torque converter get at least 60mph maybe even like 75

how thick was this sheet, i would use like quarter inch thick plate and make sure to tighten down the bolts

if you don't really want to spend that much money you could use like a jackshaft set up that will give pretty good torque

you can see the jackshaft connected to the axle here http://i67.photobucket.com/albums/h282/66miles99/Picture004-1.jpg

they are usually used to gear go karts and mini bikes lower

I suggest making your own frame, i'm don't think a ten horese power will fit in those frames. those things were built for like 5hp 6hp engines. And for that kind of budget you might as well go all the way and make a complete off road full suspension go kart.

were you thinking 25 inch or bigger

well both will be pretty spendy but the cheaper one would be leaf spring suspension

you could use independant suspension with the differental with 1 inch output shafts and using double a arms with cvs or u joints

nothing wrong with that just single wheel drive is not very good for off road and yeah thats how the wheel spins

that thing is freakan sweet

so your probably go with a differental axle so you could use a leaf spring suspensions simple, like trailer design suspension

so your going to have 6 wheels in the back, are all of the six going to be powered and is this mower engine vertical or horizontal shaft

maybe you could try a motor assisted bike, you can use the pedels and the motor. i thought about doing that with a chainsaw motor

if you going to use the 9/16 i would use a half inch bolt going through it if that is what u mean

yah, maybe not just traction and maybe then acceleration

I understand that single wheel turns easier so go for hard ashpalt, but since only one wheel is powered would you lose speed

it's not spinning out or anything

since my dad knows how to arc weld i'm going to get an arc welder. is 100 amp is good enough or do i need something a little more heavy duty

thanks, well i searched around and found a place that had 10' foot pieces at the same price so i'm thinking about buying about 30'
