    Well I finally bit the bullet! I bought a new Tony Kart today. I have 3 MacMinerelli chassis and they have served me well, but I really wanted a Tony Kart....

    Getting too old to race, but I still love to play......

    If you know anyone who might want a 2002 125 Shifter MacMinerelli chassis let me know! (no engine, just a chassis) I have 2 for sale....

    Good choice, Tony makes excellent karts. I used drive Tony's back when I was racing in the 90's, and still have two of them but have not been out in a while.
    What engine are you going to put in?

    I have a 80cc Honda with a remote adjustable carb jet that is dynoing at 27hp, so I will run that, I may get a 125cc at some point, but for what I do, a 80cc is just fine...

    I've got an 02 Tony ICC (with TM engine) shifter. Good choice, I'd like your brakes on mine however, since I've got to shim the brakes just about every time I run it.

    I understand they have a new brake system that is supposed to be incredible, my MacMinerelli's brakes sound like yours, so I am excited about the Kart.

    I actually have 3 shifters and 2 Briggs karts so I need to make some room!

    ok, I changed my mind, I bought a ICC 125cc motor today, so I will be selling the Mac shifter Karts complete with engines...

    I have 3 of those for the track at my house, it takes more talent to be fast on a briggs kart than a shifter, great training karts!

    I've gotta make it up to Kansas one day. This track..er..uhmm...driveway just sounds too incredible!

    Good choice on the karts. I believe driving impressions (formerly ompusa) does the TK support, correct?
