Go kart help needed !!

[Palm Tree]

So im gonna build a go kart 1- because i want one and 2- my bro and parents think im stupid and i couldnt build one, well i'll prove them wrong. Anyway im only looking to build a small single seater and it doesnt have to be fast it just has to work and look good, not tatty. Single wheel drive, band brakes, smalll 5 hp motor. I have some designs on paper but i would like some other designs so i can choose which ones are best for me.

Any help appreciated, cheers.

Prove 'em wrong!

Scan and post your designs. Look at lots of pictures here in the project gallery for ideas.

Azusa Clone

I wanted a traditional style kart that looked good but would not requre a lot of complicated welding. I really liked the Asusa kit because it had a strong simple double frame and not a lot of b.s. Asusa Engineering show a small drawing with enough dimensions that you can scale the rest up on the last page of their downloadable cataloge.
I used 1"box 0.07 in. box extruded tubing and it MIG welded up slick. To keep everything all lined up when welding I used a small picture frame clamp to hold everything square. Simple and I know I have a proven design.

Cheers for all the help, i'm gonna go with some plans I saw on a 'how to build a go kart' pdf. The only thing now is to find a small engine for cheap enough. I wont be able to start until spring now due to exams and the fact i would do alot of the work outside.
I will be sure to post some pitures of the build as soon as I start but that will be in quite a while.
