My boss at my day job races those shifter carts... and let me tell you, those lil fuckers fly!!! He said that they do an average of 145 mph. That looks like it would be a blast to do on city streets! That thing was jookin!

do they have dirt bike engines? and they call them shifters cause you actually shift them correct?

Interested in selling the shifter cart if the price is right??..If not how much money is involved in making one,and how often does the engine need a rebuild/swap

build you own if you want to buy a new one or used your looking at spending around a grand for a used and thats cheap. Go to a motorcycle junkyard pick up a motor and you'll see a fast kart...
