Below is a link to my last welding project. Just click the welding cart link. It's a welding cart that I gave to my dad for father's day. I had it powder coated at my friends shop. It's a little dusty in some of the pics and I hadn't mounted the casters but you'll get the idea. The site is under serious construction and the only link that's done is the welding cart one. http://pages.sbcglobal.net/sfr4dr/

Now that i am almost done with my car I think i am gona make a shifter kart, with a CR 125 motor. </TD></TR></TABLE>

Don't make your own chassis. Buy mine.



Seriously...making a "real" kart is not an easy deal. The front end geometry and the bends in the tubing are results of thousands of hours of R&D. I've been racing karts for almost 10 years now. I have complete confidence in my ability to cut and weld, but I would never even think about attempting to make my own chassis....unless I wanted to get lapped.

that kart is sick *** ****.

Good honesty Sonny, I like to see that kind of Honesty. Chassis dynamics is a scary world, just like engine physics. Tons of people go around claiming they know how an engine works, when in fact the worlds most intelligent engine builders will admit they know about 2% of what really goes on inside an engine. That's my engine rant.

Very nice Kart btw, always been a fan, never put a lot of research into it though.

 

how do you pronounce the word 'fillet' as in fillet weld?

fill-it

 

damn Sonny thats nice! What motor ?
I am not gona get into competion or anything i just need somthing to work on so i dont get board and tear my car apart again like i did last time - now after 3 months pretty much done. I should use the phrase 'shitfer cart' more of a high powered 'go-kart' since this will be somthing to just beat on in my neighborhood.

 

if you consider building a chassis, it better be somehting cool like the gixxerkart

Not true, bends disrupt airflow, period...

That's an 80cc 2 stroke Honda CR80. Lots of fun. This setup (80cc shifter) sees about 70 mph on the sprint tracks and 100+ mph on the road courses like Sears Point.

I have yet to ride in a car that can out accelerate a shifter kart.

I got it from a local shop. There the only ones i've ever seen sell a portable band saw, i don't think anybody else makes them. I can supply you with one if you want. There $175. Replacement blades are $25

just about every power tool company makes portable band saws. you cna pick them up at home depot and lowes, harbor freight, etc.

 

the tubular is for my SR20, originally i made a log sytle but i said what the hell i might as well treat myself to a tubular

 

I like the group shot on your floor. hopefully my garage will look like that soon (just ordered a lincoln 135 )

Any idea of where to get KA24 flanges that are reasonably priced? JGS has them for like 55 or something.

 

Post some pics of that tubular installed. how low does it sit ? look good. ( i like to see different manifolds )

its for my SR20, the turbo sits on top.


btw i welded a vband onto an HKS t04R today, i love welding turbine housings. its NICE, everything just flowed so well. and in the end i had PERFECT shiny beads.

is that top manifold for an SR aswell? RWD?

 

anyone here have a mill and/or lathe?

also. i cant seem to find info on metal spinning on the web, anyone with that?

 

a real *shifter* cart




300lbs thrust and 100+ MPH

 

hot, but is that a gas tanks BETWEEN the driver's legs? you'd have to hold a gun to my head to get me in a twin jet powered gokart w/ a gas tank between your legs....though it does look ******* fun as hell!

 

LOL, that is no shifter cart thats a land jet, lol

 

that is sick!

 

ditto. man thats some crazy shiet......man must be one long strip to come to a complete stop.
