| WOW! that looks huge! I especially love the rear view. You and Conrad are totally leaving me in the dust with my "go cart" build, but thats where skill makes a difference, you guys have it, and i dont lol! Maybe one day i'll catch up to you two. And maybe we could all get together and have a photoshoot or something with our not-larger-than-life carts Awesome work, cant wait to see more.

| well hay I'll tell you what. when I get my kart and plans up to par I,ll send you a copy. but keep in mind that the plans and parts go hand and hand so look at spending at least $1000 for the rear, mid, arms,front/back tires, and some other stuff. I,'ll leave the paneling out for you to do. To start you will need a hand grinder, files, steel chop saw that can cut angeles up to 45 deg., and yes a welder and an a potractor/tape measure. So what do you think of the little trak machine up top???

i think its sweet! With the skill you have shown me you have in building this go-cart, that track kart should be a breeze for you to build

T-man, I see you got a couple of big boys toys there! Hey, the tumbler is coming out great!! It doesn't look bad with a single rear tires. I was going to go with duel tires do to my short axle. I see the cold weather doesn't slow you down. Good job!!

| Thanks Terry, I still have a lot to do with what you see there. I was going to try to go with 4 tires also but my problem was the room that I would be working with (motor)...What size of wheels are you going with rear/front?? And you know, Its been really strange but ever since I started this project (call it karma or the big guy up stairs is smiling on me or what) things have been working out. I plan on staying inside one day and the weather is crapy that day. I plan on going out and working on it and the weather is nice. I ordered my tires on the same day and the ones I wanted to work with first show up first. Strange I'm a stay at home dad (we lost our daycare assistance) so I watch the little ones, cook, clean, and change icky diepers. When the misses comes home thats when I jump outside and do my thing and I do it as fast, precise and efficient as I can. Are you going to use the same things that Shaggy is going to use on the rear for 4 tires? Plus when I get to my paneling its going to look way differant then everyone elses I'm building more of a generic virsion of it.

| Since my model is around 2/3rds the original size of the Tumbler, my tires wont be go-cart at all, but small truck tires if you will, 31" Super Swampers. T-man I'll try to lay over the panels in that picture first chance i get just to see how it will look In that one pick, looks like you kid is gonna bonk you over the head with that bat! lol
