Thought it might interest some here....
Went out for a play at 'Udrive' with a workmate on sat arvo, he's taken a super kart (ie racing kart) and stuffed a 2001 R1 engine on the back of it. this things foooken crazy fun and a little scary to drive. Certainly sorts the men from the boys
he's still got a few things here and there to sort out to make it a bit more user friendly ie improve throttle mechanism but he'll get there, gotta expect a few teething problems
i managed to break the throttle cable (easy fix on the spot) but no so easy to fix was the rear tire that gave up on me mid drift with a huge bang
we were doing roughly 12 sec laps and the record fastest time is 10.8 or something, not bad for first time out there!
