editing? is that for real or what? craziness... i dunno what to believe.

inexplicable.

it is fake

very fake, the kid on the tricked out go-ped was done much better.

whoa, they FLEW past those cones....at like 30mph

a shifter cart like that one can go up to about 125 mph pretty quick. ehhh i dont know.

yea.. theres a circle track in my area and kids run up to 85mph with their 1speed 2cycle motors...

the sound seems fake.. today a 125cc sounds like a motorcycle.. not a freaking jet..

Fake, but those karts can be real fast...

That's actually real, you can get those jet engines at a fairly cheap price and if you know how to rebuild them you can have alot of fun with them. My dad bought one about a year ago and has been tinkering with it in his garage (hopefully some of his mechanical ability was passed on to me). Although I almost became a darwin award winner when we fired it up as it was sitting on the back of his pick-up and it started to shoot forward because we couldnt' hold it in place by ourselves. Luckily he had a built in kill switch that he was able to pull in time before any damage was done. I'll call him tomorrow and find out the specs on the turbine itself, I believe it is one that sits inside fighter jets and is used to spin up the main jet engine...I think I might even have pics of us firing his off somewhere...but I dont' know about taking on a modena, that guy might have been sandbagging it a bit.

true but the vid is fake. The cart did not win IRL

It burns kerosene, it is pretty much ghetto rigged right now, we have a kerosene can with a hole cut in the bottom and a feeder nipple welded on with a plastic fuel line that runs into the engine. He is going to do something more permanent once he decides where he wants to put it. The choices are to either mount in on his rider mower or build a custom setup in the bed of his truck so it points out the back...

damn, is kerosine expensive?

Its not fake. the weight of the go kart makes it be unbelievebly fast. I was just seeing a british program on the TV about cars and they were testing some off road baggies with 900cc honda engines that can go from 0 to 60 in under 3 seconds.
