RUNAMUCK Posted March 4 Posted March 4 I just did a search, and am sad to report that the 5hp briggs forum to which I once belonged no longer exists. There was a class of racing under the Wisconsin Karting federation which ram them. Aftermarket parts existed especially. (Weisco pistons, Carillo rods, etc) Plus that forum had information on modifications too. 3 Quote

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. Edited March 5 by a.craw4d 1 Quote
a.craw4d Posted March 5 Author Posted March 5 This crash was from awhile back just after the engine upgrade. Think I mentioned it earlier in this thread. 1 1 Quote
a.craw4d Posted March 5 Author Posted March 5 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 1 Quote
