Oh it ain't junk! This frame and engine's got a lot of life left in 'em if I don't screw up.
Yes I do have buckets in the picture, that was to put the parts on since I at first put them on the go kart. I had to take it all off to paint it, and to let it dry.
This morning I woke up to a sopping wet go kart, even though the porch is covered. :D
The wind was blowing hard enough that it blew the rain sideways and got the kart wet.
Thankfully the engine was pretty dry.(since I put it there on that bucket :lolgoku:)
I like Blackout! Keep submitting ideas and please keep it PG! Or G preferably!

This is why you con your parents into letting you use half the garage for storing your go kart!

Yeah I was being sarcastic. I guess sarcasm doesn't go through the internet well...
And Tpdingo, I actually haven't conned half the garage for my go kart.
My dad has a ton of tools in there, so it would be tight if I put it in there anyway.
I store, fix, and test it all on the back porch.

Yeah I need a shed. Mostly just for storage.
It's nice not to be working in a wooden box that's filled with gas fumes...:lolgoku:

I call all mine junk... it's fun... especially when I let some one else drive it and that person is really expecting it to be a piece of slow junk...the expression on their face is priceless when they press the pedal down and that junk tries to run out from underneath their back side! I love it!

If you keep the engine that color you could call it fireball.

Sure ain't got a straight eight, but Fireball doesn't sound bad.

P.S - My kart is also junk, but it's really good junk! :thumbsup:

I remember the time I told my friend that I had a really slow go kart(hehe its a 6.5hp predator and a TC/30)...and he actually believed me. His face when he floored it for the first time was absolutely priceless. Lets just say he didn't make that mistake again!

I hope to make a sleeper kart someday.
Make it look rusty and decrepit with boogerwelds, do some really discreet mods, then leave people in the dust. :D
Gut the muffler and air filter for max flow but almost no filtration or muffling.
Polish and port, remove governor, and billet parts.
It'd be loud, but I could just say the muffler's broken. :p

Haha I just noticed this. It does look pretty similar honestly... Nice Kart by the way! I can't keep my rear wheels as they are cracked, although I may have to fix them somehow because replacement options seem limited because of my stepped rear axle. Hope you get some good names, I can't think of one for mine myself

I just got back from camping, so I haven't been here for a while.
No I have not chosen a name.
Please keep submitting ideas!
