[Kart builder39]

i just got done a nother go kart with a 11hp harber freight engin with 40s tav that weighs 300 400 pounds too and i can make it do wheelies on flat ground il try to post pics

Must have a lot of weight it the back, I need to see pics/video to believe it.

How fast does it go?

 

[Kart builder39]

it goes about 30 40 mph , it got 54t sproket on axle 14 t on jack shaft with 16 in tires no weight in back except engine axle is below the engine

I find that VERY hard to believe, wheelies with that gearing (3.8:1, 44mph top speed calculated) it would be very hard unless you roll backwards down a hill then floor it.

My KZ400 shifter kart (36+HP) wont even pop wheelies, but thats mostly due to the fact that its very hard to get traction haha.

With that gear ratio I doubt you're pulling wheelies without a weird weight setup. I've got a 10/60 setup with a 11hp with a 40s and it just about pops the front wheels off the ground.

Is your seat bolted down?

3-400lbs? Is it made out of concrete?

Any kart will wheelie when you have your fat friend stand on the back.

i was doin that a while ago my freind stands on the back holds on the roll cage and i floor it!

With a torque converter, if they do pop up, it wont be for long. And definitely not on a 300lb kart. But I'd really like to see a vid off it.

but i have a real big driven unit not a 40s driven ,but it still end up to 1to1 in final drive

 

[newrider3]

Video or STFU. Not to be a mcpenis, but until you give us some sort of visual proof, this is all BS.
