Forget gixxerkart, this is what I'd be doing with a spare gixxer engine.

That is fucking cool! Reckon the sides should have just been left black instead of the silly scribly bits, and be good to see it on some proper road.

Pussy stuff, I'll take something from Hartleys (http://www.h1v8.com/page/page/1564765.htm) or RPE (http://www.radicalperformanceengines.com/engines/)
The car is cool regardless of powerplant cept of course if it was original VW

I have watched that a couple of times, and I think it's too heavy to be mean as fun.
I'll take the V8 version too thanks, good luck to whoever tries to make a V8 crank that'll pull 12,500rpm though.

Saw a Mini ( a 'proper' Mini) in the weekend with a Honda V-Tec transplant - including the air-con.
All done with a kit from the USA - including the fibreglass flip-front.
Blood little ripper but the owner said no, he wasn't going to turbo it.
