I attended the VKA, Vintage Karting Association, Reunion last week as a spectator. met some really nice folks and saw some crazy Karts also. Wanted to post a few pics of what i saw. I wish i had taken more but my camera battery died. I have some video of the karts practicing also. I'll post once i upload on youtube.

Thought you guys might like to see a few.

VKA1-3 Had a Yamaha RD400 engine. That thing hauled Arse! I have some vid of it also.

The RD and the RZ are the quickest bikes I have ever ridding. Even though they were only 400cc and 350cc engines. Yamaha got those engines right. They scream for sure. I think the bikes were outlawed in the USA? Then Yamaha used them in the Banshees.

The street bike RD400 and RZ350 were no joke. They do not look that fast but do not be fooled.

I like the blue kart, its so minimalist? Looks awesome. Wicked pictures, the first one made me make a mess.
