I was wondering how much these guys cost...
Nice score man. I was down in miami last week and we drove up to ft lauderdale to this place. Siccckkkk http://www.xtremeindoorkarting.com/

8 mins for 30bucks....
I thought it was worth it. Got a chance to run my girl into the wall. :P

That motor will do fine (KT100) :-P I used to race karts. Its got a restrictor muffler on it, i'd get a different pipe and run all new brake lines. Good deal!

It might have a restricted carb on it to, if you take the filter off and hold it WOT and look down it will have either a blue or red plate on it. if it doesnt, its unrestricted witha ----- pipe

Yeah swear to god that stuff looks like the cheap as nylon tubing used in plumbing. Most common instance would be seeing it use to hook a fridge up to it's water supply off the top of my head. 2-stroke or 4-stroke? Build a tuned pipe for it!
Port the head too =D

nope, goes straight through. What kinda pipe would you recommend? it needs backpressure though right?

yup, cheap *** nylon tubing. doesn't flex at all under full pressure though. bought some new stuff already got the rear brakes done and working on front today. hopefully ill have her up and running tomorrow. How would you go around building a tuned pipe? sorry new to 2 strokes and small engines. plan on porting the head eventually
