My dream is to have some property with a karting track and a bunch of karts to run on weekends with friends haha.

BTW. what exactly are you doing in the first picture with your right hand on the motor?
Well you can get the motor at harbor freight with a coupon for like a $100 and then an old chassis for like $500 and Bam! gokart! Then you need helmet, suit, transportation and some regular pump gas and your pretty much good to go!

My Dad said the same thing to me he wants to get a lot of land and build a racetrack in his backyard when he retires lol.

In that first pic i'm leaning out the motor by adjusting the low speed jetting on the carburetor. So when we get to the line i won't bog down at the start and then I'll turn it back and dump more fuel into to the engine and go fasta after the start!
