budget wooden go-kart

[mckutzy]

They are no more unsafe than yours..
One could argue that they have more safety installed in them as they are just meant to go down hill, have a proper steering, braking and usually have a steel chassis of some sort...

I kinda beg to differ....

and also building a roll cage if you make it out of metal, mine was wood and almost broke me neck

ill make a post about that other go-kart

 

[Mr_mcrib212]

should I add a 420 or 670 on this someday or would that just be overkill

 

[Karts of Kaos]

no!

 

[Mr_mcrib212]

So that would not be overkill or I should NOT do it

---------- Post added at 08:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:09 PM ----------

I'm guessing I should not do it

 

[Mr_mcrib212]

this is the best motor ever

this is the best motor ever

Better than the Honda it's based off of? But seriously that cart with anything bigger than a 50cc 2 stroke and tall gearing for torque/LOW speed is a really bad idea, please think it over! Some fates are worse than death...

This thread for the win!!!!

 

[Mr_mcrib212]

I have heard of guys putting 670cc predators on lawnmowers and they go 65 mph, sketchier than mine?

Actually I changed the gear ratio to 6:1 so I have a better top speed

 

[mckutzy]

Well then quit gabbin..... keep building then...
You already think this is a joke and safety isnt a concern of yours... so

Ironically now... youll get more help at the veterinarian hospital (if you can find one open, that has been made essential) than an actual hospital....
After this this lets loose.. someone might need it...

 

[Mr_mcrib212]

oh safety is a concern when I get enough money I'll install some sort of harness and/ or a good helmet so I don't crack my skull open when the harness breaks

 

[mckutzy]

Ohhhh of course.....
Righttt... a safety harness... can't for get about that right......

Let me guess... your going to make a cage out of 2x4's aswell... for that harness...?????

When exactly is "oil change on time" I've heard 6 months I've heard a year I've heard every month and I've heard every 10 hours of use, my last oil change was a couple months ago

Whenever the oil gets dirty. You can check it for a reason.

The Hemi version would'v been better. But I guess you don't need any extra power to push a lightweight wooden kart, right?

Electric = motor. Internsl combustion = engine.

 

[Mr_mcrib212]

Although Hemi engines do make more power and they also last a lot longer for whatever reason

Forget the harness, it's best you get tossed from the kart when you Evel Knievel it and it starts cartwheeling! Find a football uniform (including all body gear and a helmet), that way you're protected, it will be darn near impossible to identify you when someone calls the cops plus you'll look the part! *insert socially frowned upon term of your choice here*

Good luck buds you're going to need it!

 

[mckutzy]

Hence the implied sarcasm in my previous post....

 

[Mr_mcrib212]

I've already found a church parking lot so I can drift with confidence (until the thing flips over or I crash it into a curb)

 

[Budget GoKart]

Why haven't you gotten a used kart yet dude they are so cheap heck I get mini bikes for 30$ all the time and karts for 50$

 

[Mr_mcrib212]

The problem is, I was going to pick up a frame and then all America got quarantined

Then like all of us then... your just going to have to wait...
