I picked up my kart today!!!
Its used and old, cost less than Gabes kart, a lot less. It is a pretty nice kart though. It is a Coyote Widetrack, with a Yamaha KT100. It has a 4 hole can, which means I can race in Senior Sportsman, or even Masters(over 35) at some places. At the local track they call it spec-100 can. If I put on a tuned pipe, I can run it in yamaha medium, or yamaha heavy.
This is the class I wanted to race, and I have been looking around for a used kart in this class. I have to say I was not all that interested in a Coyote, but I watched this kart and a kid named Austin smoke everyone every week in this kart. His dad Kenny, threw in a Mychron3, again old, but still very useful, and a starter(worth a few hundred bucks each). He put a fresh motor on it for me, so I will not have have to have it re-built till the end of my first season(worth another few hundreds bucks). He even bought a new battery for the starter. I cant say enough about Kenny he was so nice, and gave me such an amazing deal.
I still need a seat, Austin kept his, as it wouldn't fit me anyway. I need some protective gear too, but after that, I just need to add fuel, and go racing. I'm very excited about next year!!!!
