Car batteries never are.

Very odd- the don't sell car batteries rated in AH in North America- I'm not used to seeing that. Three of those would be pretty heavy, I suspect.
Personally, I am hesitant to suggest large lead-acid batteries for a go kart, unless certain safety precautions are addressed. That's a lot of disaster waiting to happen.

Car batteries suck on a kart, they don't last very long and they never charge as well once they've been flat a few times, weigh a ton and are unsafe in the event of a crash too. Been there, done that, it was crap.

Buy decent batts or even better, get a petrol engine, much much cheaper, much more power, can ride all day instead of just 10 mins and you probably wont have to replace it even after a whole lifetime of riding.
