Hi to all, my name is Greg Sims, along time ago go karter from South Australia used to race a 250 cc OUTLAW class kart on the dirt, now fiddle around with scooters(electric) and are now wanting to build a GMS- .... geriatric mobility scooter from scratch as I have motors/ batteries / controllers etc and a busted back from abuse on track - haha!- my fault!
@ the moment I am using a scooter that I built from scratch including frame - works well but I need something befitting my age and condition, thank you , - GregS

Welcome to the forum. There are tons of electric scooters advertised for medically impaired people. Mostly on medical websites. Not go kart or recreation oriented. You should try to get some advertising or pictures of these copy one.

Welcome to the forum Greg.

I cant help with mobility scooter info but you caught my interest with dirt track racing in OZ.

I've retired from racing karts on dirt-oval tracks here in the USA and was just wondering if the Australian dirt kart tracks are all oval shaped, or road race type with both right and left turns, or do you guys have both types of dirt kart tracks?

Here's a pic of one of my old racekarts, do you have any pics of yours?

Welcome! I’d start off with one of those old 250 engines!
