Can't say that I've never had the same thought with my spare 929 motor.

Got any vids of it going?
Or how about details of it coming together?

HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO !!!!
a Kart with a 929 engine...........

I know a bit about karts - a 250cc Bultaco engine with 5 gears will get you to 210KPH (130MPH)faster than you would believe. Faster around Kyalami than a formula 1 !!!
I can't even think what a 929 would be like - scary for sure !
(Loove to try one) !

I worked a karting event, and I was astonished at how fast the two-stroke shifter karts were. Add to that how fast they can change direction and its easy to see why so many people enjoy it! It looks like a blast. When I parted out my F3, the guy who bought the motor bought it for his kart. It looks like fun!

I'm with you Conrice, I thought I was going pretty fast at Summit Point main 2 miles at high 1:23's and low 1:24's on my 94 F2, then I checked out youtube karts at Summit Point, WTF they're just as fast if not faster the I. WOW! Makes me want one.
