New to the karting idea

[808moparskate]

Really been into the idea of these small projects that dont cost all that much. Found this forum and am really interested in making one hell of a build i have already built a decent go kart from many trips to princess auto and my dad built a barstool from bmi karts parts. I want to now do a $0 racing karts style build. Should be a challenge but i am up to it.

hey cool.. im about an hour from Loyd here in alberta
good to meet ya neighbour!!!

im only about 30-40 mins from cold lake as well.. lol.. in Bonnyville..

on a side note, be interested to see how the BMX bike thing turns out.. hehe.. that would be a nice light deal.. i used to be an avid BMXer. lol

im looking at making something more or less the same as the MXB Motorcross board.. hehe, using a chainsaw engine for wieght savings n all that.. lol i think that would be fun

be interested on seeing how you deal with the clutch n all that...

(Some one should realy just start fabricating either replacement clutches, or chains and secondary sprockets so ppl dont have to mess with teh original clutch/sprocket setups.. lol)
