Reply:Oops, thought it was one of those little guys they sell at TSC. Knew a kid in HS who took a Honda Oddessy go cart and pu a 650 motorcycle engine on it, had the shifter welded to a bar with the clutch on it, just squeeze and pull. He ran it into the drivers education car first time he took it out of shop class. fast as hell, but needed wheelie bars!
