Thanks, The frame shape was hard to tell from the original pictures.

so if I have the output sprocket at 14 teeth to a 45 tooth gear on the axle then the low ratio would be 8:1 which would get me up to 15mph on 11" wheels. At the high end, the ratio would be 2.7:1 and that would take me to 45mph. With the gradual ratio changes through the Torque converter, it...

Thanks Does a torque converter start out with say a 3:1 ratio and as rpm's increase it will get to a 1:1 ratio?

I have decided against this idea. I think that the chain would be too wide to even fit into the derailleur. It would probably mess the chain up too. I really want to have a transmission, but i am out of ideas:surrender:

I wouldn't be using bike gears, only the bike derailleur to switch between the gokart gears.

Can you share your frame CAD file? I need to make a Frame and I would like to base it off of yours...

I just had an idea. While I was riding my bike today I encountered a hill. So to get up the hill I switched gears. The gears I switched were the chainrings. Now, could I have the 13 tooth clutch go to the live axle with 45 and 60 tooth gears. To start, I would have the front derailleur from a...

I have done lots of research, but I generally ask questions here first because you guys generally know so much. Its like using a dictionary to look up a word while instead you could just type it into google.

Yeah Sure! That would be very helpful!

Ok,Do I need to buy wheel hubs for the rear and just bolt on the front ones? And what about the width? Is wider better?

Thanks, does the cart taper in after the from wheels or is it throughout the frame?

Yeah, I guess I dont really need it. What wheels would you suggest that I get? I really want some slicks, but they are a bit out of my budget...

Im not sure. What would you recommend?

What program are you using to render those images?

I know I was just joking around. Yeah round will require more work, so now I need to decide weather or not I can actually grind the round tube down that much. I said I changed my mind about the differential axle, but since this is for the road, shouldn't there be a differential?

I was going to use Square tube, is round better? It does seem that round tube is cheaper.

I will swap the axle with the differential in it for a live axle because I can save around 80 bucks and I may drive it on some gravel/dirt occasionally. So the first picture above is inaccurate.

Well if your dead then you can't sue them:roflol: Here are some rough plans that I made.

What are the dimensions of the cart?

Thanks, I think that I want mine to be an open top, but it will be a bit wider to improve stability. The engine is 7HP. I think that will be fun to play with. The hardest thing for me is getting all of the small pieces like steering arms and hubs and I don't like the uncertainty of compatibility...
