Oh yes - I forgot the titles state this unit has 1000 bhp per 2000 lb. Tell us the weight of this cart so I can laugh at how lame this run is shaping up to be. Hey - I'm sure you did fine for a chick, but this cart obviously has much more in it. Either that or you're lying about the power.

It may well be lame in your oppinion, but I honestly think you should just appreciate for a second how different this is going to be to "drive". You control motorcycle throttle & clutch with yout feet not your hands which are god knows how much more sensitive than your feet, that makes even pulling away a complete mission.Handling is toot as there is no suspension. (The blade was featured in bike form in streetfighters mag years ago) You should come and see it. You'd like it :)

i would shit my pants at the 60 ft, 1/8 and 1/4 mile, 133 mph in a miniature car with no suspension?? huge balls my friend

133 mph with your butt 3 inches off the ground? Definitely not for me.

@beeroosterm what zx14 are you talking about? they run high 9's. you also have to figure that on a kart the tires are much smaller and transfer much more torque so it makes it almost impossible to take off. thats why top fuel dragsters run like 36 inch tires.this kart could be good for high 8's with taller tires.

@ducati916chick i dont think that dick understands that 130mph in a go cart is insanely fast. it takes big balls to do that. and also 9.4 is about a second faster than a liter bike.

You're right hun, this kart is the fastest 4 wheeled vehicle I have ever "driven". My friend has a GT3RSR (YUM) but I've only been passenger :)

Eer, I am only a sz10 girlie, so pretty pettit (and not very tall @ 5'5", so I struggle on the gixxer. The duke was nice and slim, I could touch the floor without messing with stupid lowering kits that mss up the geometry. I feel too tiny on the gsxr. You're right, 1000's are for the track (but I live next to BrandsHatch) :)

@ducati916chick I'm still unimpressed. In the 9.4 range, you should be doing low 150's for trap speed. Also, if that is a turbocharged Fireblade engine, it should be putting out enough hp to run rings around a stock ZX-14. What kind of "unimaginable" engineering is involved in making this thing? If you can't lay down a faster time than a stock ZX-14 with less horsepower, it's a dog. Otherwise, it's just a cool vehicle with a chick driving. A guy would probably do much better...

@ducati916chick oh kool im 20 I have my gsxr 750 k6 now love it 750 fast enuf you cant keep wheel down in 1st at high revs so a 1000 useless unless u racing above 100mph :D why you hate the gsxr 1000? Anyways this kart be more fun on road than anything, bet be most fun ever lol

@28power68

Not all us girlies are useless drivers ;)

[28power68]

@ducati916chick Now i'm speechless

@28power68

HAHA thank you. I will take that as a compliment (although I am actually a girl) ;)
