Go Karts – Going Faster?

Sunday Jul 25, 2010

I race in a sealed engine go-kart league in Avon, NY. I am the slowest person in my class on the front stretch. Even the slower cars in the turns can zoom by me like I am standing still on the straight. I use a Coyote SS chassis, all the karts in my class are the same weight (+ -1 or 2lbs), and we use the same tires. This is a sealed class, so I can’t take out the governor or anything drastic like that. Any suggestions?


Gears. You are probably running a different gear ratio than the rest of the field. If it is a true sealed engine class. However, there are always ways to modify engines, and people will find out how to max out the rules in order to run a faster engine.


I’m Getting my Little Girl into Racing Karts (PeeWee) I need help finding parts.?

Sunday Jul 25, 2010

I got her a Tazz kart I’m pretty sure PeeWee class has to run a 3.5 B&S. The only thing i got so far is the frame and a couple of tires and rims. Shes going to be racing at Mardela Springs MD. If anyone raced there before let me know how the track is we are planing on going up there next weekend. If anyone can help thanks..

Does the track have a website or a club affiliated with it? The club sites usually have a section with stuff people are selling. You could contact one of the sellers & even if they don’t have what you need, they might be able to point you in the right direction. If not, there will probably be someone with a parts trailer at the track when you race – although that’s not going to do you much good if you’re trying to get the kart together before then.


What is a "micron 3" for a shifter kart?

Sunday Jul 25, 2010


It’s an electronic gauge that gives rpm, temp and egt. It is also a data logger that records engine parameters. Some also record lap times so the driver can see her/his times while driving.

It’s actually Mychron3 and it has been superceeded by the Mychron4

Sunday Jul 25, 2010

okay well i just met this girl and she seems to be pretty cool. i want to ask her to be my gf but right now i dnt have money to spare and since its been pretty cold where i live i cnt come up with any good ideas for a cheap and fun first date. in the past i would usually go to the park, get ice cream or go race around in some go-karts. but this cold weather is messing things up for me lol any ideas? i dnt want to just ask her to be my gf over a txt haha

Since it’s so cold out, why not go for a fun indoor date? You could cook dinner together and watch a movie!


How to make a motorized go kart out of junk?

Sunday Jul 25, 2010

Well me and my friend are going to make a deck out of wood, then some how attack two axles to each end and then attach a motor to the back and steering mechanisms for the front. Anyone have any tips or plans on how to do this? Also what horsepower engine should we get for our kart since it’s going to be a two seater weighing at about 250-300 pounds with us on it?

I need some design help, mostly since i’ve never built anything this big in my life before, so this is a big start

Use metal as you frame it may be expensive but it will be cheaper in the long run

Looking for an official racing track to race my car or provided cars in bay area (not go karts).?

Wednesday Jul 21, 2010

I’ve been wanting to go auto racing but not with go karts but with real cars. Either with my own or with real racing cars or whatever they provide. I hear that they have these kinds of tracks around the bay area but I can’t find one.

by bay area , im guessing the san francisco bay area…u can rent time in laguna seca, near monterey…

PS racing karts are real racing cars and are purer to drive than the ones you have in mind… i take it you have not done any form of racing yet because any racer would would not ask questions like these or make comments like you made…


what is a 250 national? whats the fastest kart you can buy?

Wednesday Jul 21, 2010

eg. how fast can it go? whats the engine make? whats the chassis like?

and what is the fastest 2 stroke kart you can buy
how fast does it go thanks

is it a kz1

You might be able to buy or make a faster one, but I’m pretty sure these are the fastest that are raced: http://www.250superkarts.com/

they are 250cc 2 strokes from motorcycles. These should be faster and more powerful then a kz1 engine.

Wednesday Jul 21, 2010
