In this video we race our new Kt100 kart against our old one!
We picked up a 2013 Arrow Racing Go Kart and a 2014 Italian Racing Go Cart with kt100 engines for $500. All the one needed to get running was some cleaning and gasoline. After getting it started we had a little bit of brake tuning to do and then this 2 stroke go kart was ready to rip! After getting the 2012 kart up and running we pulled out the vintage kart and raced them against each other! Stay tuned to find out who wins!
Thank you guys for watching and be sure to stay tuned for when we get this built!

    Pipe vs a can isn't that fair plus those clutches are not engaging at the proper RPMs and aren't tuned correctly either 😉

    I raced karts with the KT100s back in the 80s. I was 8 at the time. It was fun days.

    If you put a 22 on the front and 58 on the rear that thing would fly, I race the same motor and this gear works great on a 1/4 track

  5. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars rdspix says:

    By the way, your vintage go kart is a Margay Xpert 3 or Sr16, roughly manufactured in the mid 80’s. The kart is rare and looks to be original, certainly valuable in the state it is in. The Kt100 is likely an old version with and older design. The front nose was a Margay-specific design and was made to fit that kart. Side panels are aftermarket but fine for the appearance. Normally these karts would’ve come without any bodywork.

    Hope this helps.

    Selling ANY racing go kart is a CARDINAL SIN and you WILL BURN for it lol. I sold a rimo kart once and it took me 5 years to find another. But I got her now and I wont let her go until im 6 feet under. I'll never sell her. I think im gonna do one with a old school kt100 and the other with a 125cc pitbike engine. Shifter vs Kt100. Who will watch?

  11. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars joe shmo says:

    I just bought a RIMO rolling chassis and I about to buy another margay rolling chassis with a KT100 that needs a rebuild. Cant wait to get them both running. Pretty soon I'll have enough karts to run my own track haha BUILD THAT SHIT

  12. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Len Gaming says:

    Just buy a new clutch already!! It's slipping WAY too much…

    I know that this is over but could you build a cardboard body for a go kart

  16. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jakester 0909 says:

    What are kt engines from are they motorcycle engines and who makes them

  17. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Nice Fellow says:

    Maybe not real fast but sure are good and loud.  Reminds me of the time I ran my weed whacker without the muffler. 🙂

  18. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Nick Davis says:

    I'm deeply disappointed, I wanted to see a side by side race

  19. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Darin Birge says:

    You guys have some fouled spark plugs if you listen you can hear it sound like it’s bubbling while your driving around on it

    Really? Not even a single drag race down that road right behind you? Wow.
