Is it for an adult to kid? The kettcar is not a good format for building a go kart. I found that out later on. For kids, it'll be ok if you make it slow. Because of the frame design and how weak it is, the kettcar is very unstable when turning and steering is hard to control. Don't know if I'll make vids on how to make it but maybe I'll post closeup pics of what it looks like now so you cann get an idea of building some of the back end to support the motor and mods.
Hmm if he's crazy as hell then it wouldn't be a good idea. The car is easy to tip over and easy to lose control. Or you could just make it slow then he'd be fine.
i need help! im a begginer and i need help conntecting my engine! i have a Kettcar too and its a pedal but i dont know where to put the engine and connect it!! any help?
i built a kettcar with a friend with a 43ccm pocketbike engine, it runs up to 35-40mph and without tuning.. i like every kettcar with motor.. well done
Yes mine is made from a pedal car. I used an engine from a lawn edger. If that's what you meant. It's only 2.5 HP Briggs and Stratton. It's strong. I can get up to 20-25mph.
can you a video on how to make them,?

@gaspowerrules I already threw it away. I chopped the whole thing up into pieces so it could fit in the recycle bin. Too bad.

Don't know the model. I'm building a complete frame now. Those Ket cars aren't very stable.
