HELLO, I STARTED KARTING WHEN I WAS 5. MY DAD BOUGHT ME AND MY BROTHER AN OLD SCHOOL STREET KART. I WAS SO SMALL I COULDN'T REACK THE PEDALS UNLESS MY LITTLE BRO WAS SITTING BEHIND ME. WE HAD IT FOR A COUPLE OF YEARS UNTIL SOME PUNKS STOLE IT. THEN WEHN I WAS ABOUT 14 MY DAD BOUGHT IS AND OFF-ROAD GO KART IT HAD A ROLL-CAGE AND AND A 10HP ENGINE. I FLIPPED IT 2 TIMES AND DROVE THE PISS OUT OF IT FOR ABOUT A YEAR. I RECENTLY PURCHASED A COMMERCIAL AMUSEMENT PARK GO-KART AT A YARD SALE FOR $100 (HELL OF A DEAL). IT IS A PACER PLUS MODEL MADE BY AMUSEMENT PRODUCTS. IT WAS MADE IN 1998 SO ITS A LITTLE OLD. IT HADN'T BEEN DROVE IN ABOUT A YEAR. SO IT NEEDED SOME TLC TO GET IT BACK RUNNING GOOD. I TOOK OFF THE METAL GUARD THAT GOES AROUND THE BODY. MADE A CUSTOM EXHAUST, PUT A HIGHER FLOW AIR FILTER, AND CUT OF THE TALL PART ON THE BACK OF THE SEAT TO THE SAME HIEGHT AS THE REAR BODY WORK (SEE LINK FOR A PIC OFF STOCK BODY). IT HAS A PULLEY DRIVE FOR NOW AND IT RUNS ABOUT 25MPH. I PLAN TO GO THROUGH THE 6.5HP HONDA GX200 ENGINE THIS WINTER. AS WELL AS GET NEW TIRE AND WHEELS, PAINT THE FRAME AND THE BODY. FOR ANY ONE WHO ALSO HAS A HONDA ENGINE CHECK OUT NR-RACING.COM. THEY HAVE TONS OF PERFORMANCE MODS THAT YOU CAN DO.
I'LL KEEP YOU POSTED AND IF ANY ONE HAS ANY IDEAS OR QUESTIONS HIT ME UP.
