A cadet kart should be OK on the roof as its light enough. A few things to remember.

o Take as much weight off the kart as possible... definitely remove the engine.
o Take as many anti-aero parts off such as the wheels.
o Make sure its a decent roof rack that's secured to the car properly.
o Properly rope the kart down to the rack, bungy chords are not good enough.
o Don't drive like a madman... stick below 60mph on the motorway.

Hopefully this works. I do know what you mean about karts falling off the roof though... I almost met my maker 15 years ago while following behind a friend of mine who had a fully laden 100 National come off on the A13 as he decided to race me to Tilbury... things you do in your youth !
