Amazing, the amount of wheeled toys that were manufactured in our country. Sure hope that all the bottom feeding lawyers think they got their monies worth.

Ive always liked the Invaders. The first Kart I can remember getting a good look at was an Invader in the late 80's. It was chained to a tree at the end of the block with a for sale sign. I was like 5 or 6 years old so buying it wasn't even a option.

The next one I seen was in the early 90's at a local Honda Power Sports sitting on the rack brand new. Price tag said $1350. Defiantly couldn't afford it.

I didn't end up getting one until much later. The bumper was smashed and the steering column broke off, but for $75 I was happy to drive 6 hours to get it. Fixed it up and 20 years later I still enjoy it.
