Default A little hmt karting action

Well my friend finally busted out the old gokart from his karting days. This thing is fun as hell. The master cylinder is leaking, so there is absolutely no brakes, so its pretty scary. Around 30 hp with the briggs and straton 5hp motor on it, bored and all that fun stuff.





i have some ripper vids but imageshack wont let me register, keeps telling me my own email is wrong. wtf. ill try to post them up soon.

Haha well last time i opened my mouth without thinking i said something along the lines of this thing has about 100 hp, and later i realized i fail and life and daddy should have pulled out. This time i was talking to the guy who actually built the engine and he said with all the stuff he has into, he wouldn't be surprised to hit 25 to 30 hp. It is crazy trying to stop, you are going probably 20, and you have to make a sharp left turn to get it to powerslide to a stop. nothing else will stop you. we gotta get them brakes bled. let me try a couple more sites for the videos and ill get them posted up.
