New From Atlanta, GA

[mblunderbuss]

Hello All. New member from Atlanta.

Four years ago I purchased, for my son, a Manco go-kart from our neighborhood garage sale. The idea was to painstakingly rebuild it with my son in some type of father-son-gokart bonding fantasy. Four years later all I managed to accomplish was remove the old, crusty B&S engine and disappoint my son. The guilt-trip from my son is too much and now the father-son-gokart bonding starts anew!

In the past 10 days I've searched to the end of the internet in an effort to educate myself on how to bring the kart back to life. This process has sparked an excitement in me - now I want my own go-kart! So, I'll be posting two questions in the forum: how to fix Manco, and what do you think about XXXX go-kart. Thanks in advance for you help!

Welcome. I wish I'd have done more projects with my daughters when they were young. We hung out, but now I realize how much more it could've been.

It's a lot of fun and very addictive. There is a lot of knowledge on this forum. Didn't spend much time with mine either, but trying to spend a lot with my grandson and granddaughter.

My oldest is graduating from high school in May. It went by fast! Two more years until my son graduates so I'm taking advantage of the time.

Make some memorys both of you will always remember. I don't know lot about karts but I will help all I can. Going to be laid up so might as well try to help someone.

Spending time with my boys are my primary reason I'm here ages (9 and 12... I still have time). Welcome and good luck with your builds.
