Bwaaaahahahahahahahahaha
Yeah I know! I was doing a demonstration at a local sprintkart meeting trying to poach some members for my superkart club. The response from the sprint guys is amazing and the kids just goggle at these winged and fairinged things! Never got a new member tho. There is a very quiet and determined core of very influential people in the sprint fraternity that actively diss the superkarts in terms of reliability, value for money and more importantly, in terms of safety. Most young karters are very easily influenced and these guys prey on that. Shame really as the 2 diciplines could co-exist comfortably I reckon. (sighs) L8tr M8 E |

I hate to burst you bubble but the dude who is looking at my F/E runs 4....yep you read it right 4 x reed engines across the back of a super twin frame, on methanol and usues it for hillclimbs!
His other fun toy is powered by 2 x Comet 135cc engines. he runs this thing on sprint tracks. Work that out for your self!!! yeeeeeHaaaaaaarrrrrrrr! Over 110 Hp. The quad engined thing lifts its front end as easy as a dirt bike and it cannot be trodden on full throttle at anything other than near top speed. It must be fed on gently and only at the mid-straight can it tolerate full throttle. It either just burns up tyres or tries to flip. I have asked for some picture of these two animals and I am awaiting them as we speak! L8tr E |

That's it, I'm moving out to Tasmania--there's obviously something in the air/water that turns you all into lunatics and I want some!!
