    Most "amusement" karts suffer from that. All the extra bars and parts bolted to them prevent the chassis from working correctly. They really need a diff setup in the rear axle but that would add a ton of weight, cost, and complexity.

    Its a odd feeling to have so much understeer in a kart, its truly something you have to relearn to drive fast.

    Ck out this thread over at H.A.M.B. (post #13)…Vintage Go-Karts - THE H.A.M.B. You ever seen a kart w/two 135cc, or one w/three two strokes engines or something crazy like two two strokes + four front wheel steering.

    How about this monstrosity w/4 motors
