Default GSX-R Kart in action

This is my temporary toy until the "REAL" toy is done.My other GSX-R Kart chassis (Mini Rock crawler)is almost complete and just needs a few more item untill she is up and running.So this will have to do until then.




Could the exhaust be any cooler?

In all honesty I really dont have the ***** to go Wide open on the street until more safety equipment is installed.With the bench seat any sideways action sends you flying and with one hand one the clutch and the other trying to steer its just down right insane.

Yeah I went back and fourth with the dude and finally had a day off and went and picked her up.He said another guy was coming to get it tomorrow but he felt bad cause he already told me to come pick it up.Now I feel bad cause after I got home I saw the thread and noticed it was you and Chris.Long story short this is just a temporary toy to shut me up until my REAL toy is done.So if still interested I will give you and your bro first crack at buying it when my other GSXR Kart is done.

LOL, Its all good. It was one of those random whim buys. We probably would have already killed our selfs, and if not it saves us alot of money. We had already been searching for roll cages, lifts, and engine mods. Just be safe that thing looks mean. Also when you do get rid of her just hit Chris or I up, who knows we might still be intrested.

Looks like a beast Jay! Like Matt said hit us up if you ever do sell it as it may spark some interest again. The $$$ were adding up before we got it with different things. The cage like you had in the video was a first as well as some seat belts LOL!!!

Get some videos of wheelies!!! That was our biggest thought was just wheelies down the road! LOL!!!

Hopefully it will be for sale soon.Im going to Garretts today to show him the new toy and check progress on my GSX-R Kart,but yeah you and your bro got first dibs on it.

As for the wheelies no lie im a little scared.I know on the vid I look like a big puss but untill you've been thrown off the bench seat.You gain respect real fast for some seat belts.

I use to have no fear on my 4wheeler at our families land. Until I learned that if you catch traction at the wrong time you end up getting sling shot off the Quad. Def. learned my lesson that day that's for sure.

I want to see what Garrett has going for you! I know he had that one awhile back that was bad ***! Like I said if you do sell it shoot me a PM or call me.

Badass golf cart!!

What's this "mini rockcrawler"?

Me and my friends are big into crawlers, I built a tube chasis last year. We might have to plan a ride when you get it done.
