  1. Was at work early and was too dark to go for a hoon. Until the boss pulled out a rechargeable work light.
  2. Almost forgot the burnout. Was way more smoke than it looks, filled the workshop. Boss thought it was hilarious when he got to work and smelt burnouts.
  3. Off for a speed run.
  4. This crash was from awhile back just after the engine upgrade. Think I mentioned it earlier in this thread.
  5. I think after market support is still big in the US. They seem to love the Briggs and chuck them on everything. The race engine is called a Raptor and has actual bearings instead of steel on alloy. Will try get some videos uploaded including one from a year or so ago when I crashed into a shop wall, and a burnout.
  6. Was your kart 1 wheel drive? This’ll do donuts on gravel if I’m kneeling to get some weight forwards, but otherwise is only breaking traction when braking.
  7. The governor delete was very straightforward. Split the side cover, remove plastic governor assembly, pull the side pin out and cut off the little flap then reinstall. Gave the insides a little clean up then slapped it back together with some new oil and treated it to a new oil seal. Bent up a new throttle linkage…. that didn’t work as it was connected near the bottom of a rotating lever so it got bugger all downwards pull. So bent the lever up to a better position and shortened the linkage to suit. Win! Get wide open throttle now. Also tightened up the brakes so they work now too. Did a couple kms around the streets early this morning and it goes real good. Very happy with it for now. Action shot.
  8. New level unlocked!!!! Probably a little more in it if I held it open for longer but quite happy with it.
  9. Too much faffing around to fit one to this I think. Would then need a separate fuel tank too. I like that this is just a simple single all in one unit. When it goes pop I’ll just chuck another one at it.
  10. Sometimes we do silly things. Robbed some led’s from a broken kid’s scooter.
  11. How do you provide proof of ownership on a deregistered vehicle? Car in question still has plates but the rego has lapsed. Can you change ownership with the plate details even though they’ve expired? Cheers guys.
  12. https://www.facebook.com/share/1Ce34tCxnz/?mibextid=wwXIfr $30 thermette if someone’s keen.
  13. I think you’re going about this muffler problem the completely wrong way. Everyone knows you start with straight pipes. From there you progress to a coby hotdog or two. Then it’s a downhill spiral of random scavenged straight through style pre silencers to full nana spec mufflers. At some stage you’ll even float the idea of a vertical truck stack with flapper gate on top. In all honesty though I’m loving the development of ideas on this whole build. Keep up the great work.
