race for pinks... or well the cart pobally doesnt have a pink but u get my drift. stock banshees top out at 70-80mph bone stock. Throw the motor in a shifterkart and it will have to have one hell of a gear to get up above 120mph. and some serious power

Well I know that shifter carts can go well into triple digits with only 125cc motors, and that is the top class. Most feel 250cc are way too much for carts, and this guy has a 350cc???

Food for thought...

As such, Superkarts can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in less than 3 seconds with a top speed of 155 mph (250 km/h)[4]. ... At some circuits, Superkarts are the outright lap-record holders, at others they run at around Formula 3 lap times.

Those machines look nothing like the one he is selling. Its like comparing a zx-6 bike with a zx-14 motor zipped tied to the frame.

Srsly. whats up with the motor sitting next to the driver?? I havent been able to see one cart with that design. It may weigh very little but that doesnt look aerodynamic at all w/o a bodykit. I think if it did reach those speeds the zip ties would give and the motor would blow off
