any word on how fast that thing goes?

So far it has went 1*9.513 mph that is well above the record on a stretch of unopened interstate highway where I have tested it. The 1/4 mile drag strip with 2400 feet of run off will much better conditions. :thumbsup:

Note: I quess we will have to wait till July 30th to see what "*" means! :wave:

so do ya have any turbines layin around, like the helicopter ones, that'd be like 2*9.513 lol

oh and just a q, is that a kid kart go kart chassis??

No, a kid kart is bigger. This thing is custom made.

This isn't radio controled, but you can see the type of proformance you could expect. If you have the time check out the links. These guy's are crazy!

Thanks, but the turbo kart only went 71 mph??? We used to get go-karts with box stock Briggs and Stratton motors up to over 70 mph on 1/2 mile oval race car tracks and that is only around 8 to 10 hp! Mine has 35 hp with no human being on it to weigh it down.

125cc

Kart ran 131.9 mph very respectible.

What Kart?

What is this post about?

The turbine kart that I posted went 131 mph. The karts that you had that went 70mph with a box stock Brigg's, was that after you went off the track and over a cliff? ;) I would have to see it to believe it. Sorry for the scepticism. :)

Well you sort of got me there, but I am telling the truth about a box stock (WKA rules) briggs and stratton on karts going 70 mph on 1/2 mile car tracks.....you are right with 1 by itself that would get lapped in around 10 laps by 2 or 3 equal karts hooked up in a bump draft or actually pushing each other with the first one cutting the air and the 2nd and/or 3rd one are just pushing at around 70 mph.

Enough about karts, this is an RC thread. :tongue:

Cool. When will you get to take it out and run it? Where will you go, to a track or ....?
If I haven't said it before, nice rig!!

I saw that you went to the speed run. I all so saw a pic of your car crossed up-full lock, front wheels up in the air, spinning the tires! Thats some power right there! Please, give us some info on the event. Congrat's on your run!

Thanks!

Hmmm you think the High HP to weight ratio/short wheelbase/relatively high center of gravity and lack of suspension had anything to do with that?
Impressive vehicle though, I heard you had a chassis issue? possibly tweaked?
