X2 Cheers and good luck the go kart will be a bit of a challenge,I can remember when we were kids my dad and a few of his mates built a few karts in a cooperative and started the local kart club. we spent a lot of nights in Curley Godwin's shed and then weekends at the Old Bar Aerodrome where they made the club track.( this has now gone.)They were good times Cheers Les

If you and your mate are keen on building a go cart, I can give ya a working 5hp Briggs & Stratton vertical crank engine I got lying around.

The mind boggles,I am not so sure about the bribes but you will have to do a hair colour change and then you can con somebody else to build the kart and take the credit.
