I agree with Fowler. Quite messed up but horribly funny in the same way.

On another note, I got my phone up and running again after a 5 hour, 1 AM hiatus. That wasn't fun.

I literally just "stumbled upon" this and thought it was interesting. I don't know if Popular Mechanics did it with or without Spider Cart's permission/knowledge, but here's the Black Widow for ya! It was an article about building a kart in a day I guess... (it calls for a seat belt *facepalm*)

EDIT: I just find *facepalm* hilarious. I don't know why.

WHAT !!! Spider carts got one of their designs in PM :furious2:

i saw that article, forgot to post it here though... some guy built the thing for his son, then probably sent in a letter saying what he built, and they decided to throw him in the magazine. i can't remember what it was about that article that annoyed me, but i do certainly remember being aggravated after reading that, maybe its from my own experiences... can't wait until summer so i can have time to make a proper frame for my kart.

Ew. The whole 'rat rod' thing has played itself out, it is all just a bunch of unsafe crap welded together for the shock factor. The more barbed wire and spider webs, the better, apparently.
