Hoping for a carby delivery b4 our next race day in 10 or so days.
Scrappy is coming together quite nicely going from a 5 hp china engine to a Yamaha 9.5 hp.
Be really interesting to compare a 300cc stationary engine to the 150cc shifter Karts.

So.....a 300cc 9.5hp Yamaha is a lot bigger than a 5hp identifying as a 10.

They see me mowin' my front lawn
I know they're all thinking I'm so old and nerdy
Think I'm just too old and nerdy
Think I'm just too old and nerdy
Can't you see I'm old and nerdy?
Look at me, I'm old and nerdy
I wanna roll with the gangstas
But so far they all think I'm too old and nerdy

New air pod filter,
New exhaust manifold and mounting hardware,
New tyres on awsome rims.
New fuel tank.

Im going for a test drive, if I can fit. Hence the slicks on the back. A little kinder on the grass.

I just remembered to pull some data off the logger from our last meet.
Our best last was a surprise.
20.11 sec lap with max 5050rpm @ 65klm/h
My slowest lap was during the same race 20.32 sec with max 5312 rpm @ 69 klm/h

Not too shabby with a stock 24hp Preditor engine.

Steering repair....Done.Was even able to change from reverse Ackerman steering.
