Go-Karts

  

 

Special Notice:

 

Due to recent spinal surgeries on one of the owners, we are not handling any utility vehicles or go-karts -- just parts.

 

If you know the model you want, we can order it on a special-order basis, and have it made-ready by our technician.  However, we will not have any display models in the near future.

 

 

Questions on our karts?  Phone us for more info.

(In store sales only;  we do not ship karts.)

Picture was taken with rear wheels off ground ... kart will not go that fast (top speed in "low" was about 25 mph with 300 lb. rider).  We haven't tested the top speed in high under load, due to space limitations (the police get upset if we get on the highway).
