Training wheels on a go cart? Is that necessary?

[swampthang]

Who designed this thing over protective mothers? Tipper Gore? When I was a kid my parents told me not to flip the go cart because it will crush and kill you. That was enough of a warning to make me be carefull. No fancy woodgrain steering wheel for me,no 6wheelin,no roll cage, no seat belt either just motor and gears and I made it out ok. Oh and check out the response someone left this dude.

What someone didnt realize is that the kid that had to drive this POS go kart, got his @ss beat by the other kids for having such lame transportation, which was far worse than a light roll over.
I think whoever put those training wheels on watched far too many anti-Rhino videos, ya know, the ones where people were minding their own business when their side by side decided to up and kill them without being provoked.

That's pretty much the stupidest thing I've ever seen.

I'm with swampthang, none of our go karts had cages or seatbelts.
