Cool, that's definitely setup for oval racing. But I think they made the Bullet in a strait-rail/sprint version for road racing and an offset/LTO model for oval racing.

I can see your steering column support is offset over a bit but I need to see the L/R corner of the frame rail under the seat area to tell if its a true offset chassis or not.

A strait-rail will have a strait frame rail there, and an offset will sorta curve outward in a loop. But either way its a really cool kart. Nice :thumbsup:

Well the guy I bought it off of who is my boss and he races karts said it was a strait/sprint kart and wouldnt be good for oval racing. I was also wondering if it looked like a kid kart because the measurements came out a couple inches smaller than the new ones

Yeah its the same size as my friends trick Olympic. I got my old 6hp I had on the birel out and started it right up after changing the gas and oil. Ill have my clutch gear for #35 chain and my motor mount here on thursday so I should have it running this weekend. The engine is temporary until I have enough for a KT100. Ill have some pics up later

S10kid when you sold that 1972 Birel was that to someone you know? I would like to have that and would make an impressive $$ offer for it. Thanks.
