My name is Sean. i've always been interested in go karts and building them. I'm pretty good will engines. I now have a yerf dog 3202 off roader with no roll cage. wasnt running when i got it a few weeks ago but within an hour after owning it it runs perfect :auto: only have a few issues with it. possibly want to tear it down and custom make it into a little drift racer. well not a little one. one that will hold me. (A 250Lbs 6'3 kid) :wai: Let me know what ypu would do to it!

Nah, don't clean it up. Show us a pic of where you started. It's more fun that way.

Dirt is fine. We'll still talk to you in the morning.

If it ain't dirty, you ain't having fun...

Welcome to the forum! As for sizing- Remember- go karts are supposed to be small, and you are supposed to look like a maniacal Shriner with your knees in the air! LOL

If you are a competent welder, you could cut the frame ahead of the axle and extend the frame a bit. Keep in mind this will alter your steering geometry and handling characteristics. The "safe" way to do it would be to extend the front porch (where your feet go). This will give you more legroom with the least impact on the rest of the kart.
