F-ING CHRIST!!! I'm laughing out loud watching this! I've always wanted to try a 400cc i4 bike engine in a Kart chassis with a 6-speed (with solonoid actuated gears, muwahahah.) Although it actually looks like the Kart has some great ballance (look at him hang the tail out!) I'd go for the 400 because it is a much lighter engine than an 1100! | ||

This thing seems like a bad idea to me. If you crash it when going around a corner at 50, sideways, youre probably pretty much f*cked. I would love to see what an formula SAE car could do with an 1100, instead of the 600's that rules require. | ||

That is brilliant! The Top 250cc class karts get near Formula 3 lap times on the Brands Indy track! Now that is mad. Best Mark | ||

I have tried a customized 250cc kart, and that was INSANITY. I have had this video for a while, and i can feel my vision blurring just thinking about it... --Dan | ||

AWESOME!!!! Looks like a fun place to play, too. It needs downforce.... and a paddle shifter.... How much HP does that motor put out, anyway? | ||

So where can I get plans to build something like that? | ||

I think it would be safer to try and lasso a rabid badger with a rattlesnake than drive that thing. | ||

That thing is insane! It could barley hold traction. The acceleration in that has got to be unreal. | ||
