I especially like the brake and throttle controls. Pinch the cable ends in your fingers and pull.

I'm really not seeing "well over $500" in parts either.
$50 25 year old garage sale find engine
$225 complete live axle kit from BMI
$20 hand truck tires
$8 pack of bicycle cables from Walmart
A $30 boat seat
$20 worth of hardware
Some scrap wood from the dumpster at a construction site
even my all new parts go kart cost me ~400 plus scrap metal i had on hand.
Yah you dont have free hands on this. it has pull gas and pull drum brakes. you will be using everything you got to stop that thing with your hands. 4:1 ratio!!! full speed at 30+mph sounds like fun
