before you start going that fast, I would strongly suggest putting new tires on that thing. Pretty nice piece though, and at a good price

With that engine, get the correct gearing for a 150mph speed.

My buddie has a go kart he built that is FREAKIN AMAZING looks like he baught it. it has a 2002 skidoo 600 motor with 60hp and the motor cycle following him topped out at 150 and he was still pulling away on the go kart hard. so im just hopin to atleast run with him.


And yes new tires are gonna be comin over the winter. may go with some rain tires though just for traction.
