I am in the process of building a go kart. I am aiming for 80mph. I have an aluminum frame that I am welding and will be custom making everything, I will be using a 7hp briggs & staton engine and hope to have around 10 gears. I will have a roll cage for safety reasons and 3 seatbelts for me from my friends crashed car. If all goes well, I will not get hurt and a video will be on youtube within a month or two!



A new update! I am getting the negine on thurseday march 13th I will be getting the 7 hp briggs and stratton engine! Hopefully by my spring break (2 weeks) the kart will be done!----------------------Another update: The engine I was supposed to get didnt even start!!!!! So now I am withouth a fram or an engine and need to start from scratch. This is going to take longer than I was hoping for.--------------------Found a 5hp engine for 50$. I called the guy but no one was home. I also just emailed someone about a riding mower that doesnt work anymore for 25$. I offered him 15$ but diidnt get an email yet. I will be able to use many parts from the mower. things are starting to look up again!



The tractor was already sold, but I got the 5hp engine! Now to make the frame.....
