*How to read the engine codes. I hereby post an image of the PDF so it's more easily viewed and referenced. Thanks to Sparkwizard for the info.

A tracker of sorts for all our new members. We get more than a few per week but it seems many are silent, never post and probably just joined up for access to the rather massive searchable database here, the full features of membership and to see the photos in all their full-size glory. Perhaps...

I thought, "karts, oh cool" but these are trikes or maybe even "carts" with a c as the label on the fork tells us they are. Question: would these be better or worse with four wheels instead of three? Seems the trike configuration is ideal for overtaking as it is easier to get the front wheel...

Cool article posted on Hagerty... https://www.hagerty.com/media/motorsports/go-karting-its-humble-origins-and-current-state/ I like the first sentence. The answer is no, not on a go kart and you're not supposed to really be comfortable. The guy in the photo looks like he needs a cup, having...

Ran across this on that vast wasteland known as U-tub. Never thought a Hazard Fraught dolly would make a viable kart frame. This guy welds well[?] but his hasty assembly-for-video-process leaves a lot to be desired. His painting skills and painting prep are well below-par as his "freaking...

An info dump on the well-known go kart frame and/or kit sold by Azusa. The basic frame is just $375.00 at this time. https://azusaparts.com/product-category/kits/go-kart-kits/ The main controversy or strangeness of it all is that the frame is so short [48"] in length and coming from the...

A Ken-Bar Recreation Equipment Fun Karts info-dump. The following is a 1986 full color Ken-Bar tri-fold brochure I found on Fleabay that I have scanned and then another 1992 brochure whose images were stolen off the web. Some later product images follow. The cover kart seems to be a KB-750-5...

http://steenstacominibikes.com/STEENS_History.html A short history of the Steen's TACO mini-bikes which grew out of the go kart craze. The go kart or GoKart came first with the introduction of Art Ingel's first ever go kart creation in 1956 which set the standard and mini-bikes came shortly...
