How cool would that be to see going around an autocross course?

So, uh, how much are they? I couldn't "add to cart" to order a Bugatti

I can't think of a child ANYWHERE that would be deserving of one of the "children's cars". The Abarth 595, and the Road Runner, on the other hand.....you won't have to twist my arm.

Somebody really NEEDS to make a race series based on those! Now that would be fun to watch!

It could create a new race phrase: "Rubin' and slapin' are racin'"

Looks like they are using the horizontal cylinder mini-bike engines (50cc) which you can easily get as 150 cc.

Sounds like a great excuse to add a second drivetrain.

I'll take a Bug T35, and maybe a 356 Porsche

you know what engine would go good in any of these? a dirtbike or sport quad engine, depending on how much you value having reverse. 5 speed sequential, potentially with reverse, in something that small and light? just find some slightly wider, stickier tires for it so you don't spend all of your adult...er, I mean grown child life spinning the stock tires

We should race these things, They would be cheap to run and we can race with the cyclecart guys.

I had a basic 3 HP go cart when I was a kid. Probably is to blame for my appreciation of driving today. mine was just a tube frame cart, but would do 35 and the brakes worked good enough. I put little bike lights on it, and tried to figure out how I could adapt my 10 speed derailer to add some gears to it but that was beyond my young mind at the time.

A id down the street had one with a race car body on it, but much like mine underneath. Mine was faster, but somehow I always thought his was cooler.

Maybe there is hope for my daughter after all...

She has no appreciation for old classic cars. When I told her that I found some go karts that look like real classic cars, her response was eeeww old cars...

But after actually seeing the karts she decided that she actually liked the E type Jag....

I wonder what these cost??? they must be fantastically expensive...
