My Kart For 2005 *Updated*

Hey,
Here's some recent pics of my kart for the 2005 season. I've made lots of changes so enjoy lol.

Oh yeah I polished up the muffler too...looks nice:

BRAP!

Here's a 360 video...the steering wheel computer is coming soon.

I want one!!!

In the first pic, it looks like your left-side tie-rod is diconnected or something. The wheel is all wacky.

Yeah I knew someone would say that...when you turn the wheel all the way to the left or all the way to the right it does that. I don't know why, it just does, with all karts. It never does it when it's on the ground though. Weird. When you turn it back it's all back to normal.

Notice the 45 pounds of scuba weights so I can be legal HAHAHA. The kart has to weight a certain abount with you in it, so I had to add them lol.

Your inside front wheel probably isn't on the ground when cornering at speed anyway, right?

Depends on the corner, the World Formula karts tend to slide where as the Rotax karts tend to push. The front wheel lifts a little sometimes, depends on a lot of things.

Like the fear this decal? LOL...you'd better. I stayed up all night putting that sucker on. It's really for the windsheild of a car and it was too wide so I had some modifying to do. But anyway, it's all on there centered and whatnot so I'm happy. It scares the old farts in their 5 horse rental hondas during open practice haha.

The whole machine is bitchen.

The "Fear This!" sticker is just a bonus!

Yeah I take really good care of it. I spent 2 days getting it clean then we had to triailer it to the new house. Messy again! lol...which leads me to my next point...

All the pics except the first one are in my new garage. Same with the vid. We're putting drywall on the exposed parts and the back wall is gonna be checkered.

Vey nice. How much does something like that cost? also, whats the top speed on it? i want one so bad

That kart was about $5000 canadian without the motor (I get the motor for free). I've had it going 130 kmh (highway speed is 100 kmh here). With different gearing and settings who knows how fast it'll get going lol. I wish my camera could pick up sound for you guys to hear it. It sounds like a friggin porshe. Waaaah! lol

If you guys wanna see what it's like behind the wheel check out these vids:

The best ones are the second and fifth videos. Helmet cam action! lol...make sure you click broadband or else the quality is garbage.

the whole kart is sick!
