is it me? or the wheelbase is too narrow for a kart that long?
for a proper race kart you're right,
for a proper off road buggy you're totally right
and for a kid you're absolutely right...
for some fun in the yard and the age of his daughter
(assuming the girl IS his daughter)
I'd say it'll work well.
tight turns or wider turns at igh speeds are going to be a learning experience

but I guess it's still a lot of fun to ride
