hehe good luck _b
coltyu. d;-)!
well its going to be like 1.5 times the length of a normal gokart, mostly cause of how the engines gunna sit and i cant sit it BEHIND the axle as it'll turn the wheels the wrong way. plus i gotta get a new chain for it as the motorbike chains F*CKED, it got stuck between the sprocket on the axle and the bike chassis more than a few times as it never had the tension gear put on
i need to find a pair of front wheels and figure out a steering solution before anything'll happen, then i need the time

We should start a remote control championship
"Just a matter of time i suppose"

LOL, or an AFX car champion ship on the bathurst track

The Datto will rage again...
sounds pretty good, now how're your performance shifts in the datto?

Not bad, since i cut the shifter down heaps its been really easy with the much shorter throws. i doubt ill get it past 3rd gear but, the course is only like 1.1km
The Datto will rage again...
well you never know, when you get into the rhythm of it all, you'll get used to all the corners and layout properly and know when you can afford to keep it floored. hopefully you'll be able to keep carrying more speed through the corners as well

well im getting the strut brace for it on saturday, maybe a 2" exhaust next week, so itll be fighting fit and rearin to go!
The Datto will rage again...
Oh and i did see an awesome lookin race seat, 450 bucks not fitted, turns out thats CHEAP
The Datto will rage again...
that'll be pretty sweet, bit of a bummer about the seat though..i suppose though if it holds onto you tight so your not floating around in the car you'll feel more comfortable on the hill climbs at least
I am the Stig
i think so, i roll around in the standard seat alot, there just no sides to it at all, this first runs gunna be interesting
The Datto will rage again...
yeah, sounds like you definately need to get something with the chunky side bolsters.....no good doing the twisty courses if you cant sit straight
I am the Stig
zactly, im gunna take the back seats out for it, they go in and out easy enough, i had to do it when i put my stereo in and was running wires, just for that bit less in the back...
The Datto will rage again...
haha yeah and its unlikely your gunnna be taking people on scenic tours around the courses
is there a carpet or anything else you can take out while your at it
