I don't understand the point of these off-road go-carts.  Sure, they might be fun to go blasting around the dry lake bed for a few minutes, but with those small tires you can't really go anywhere... certainly not down any rough trails or exploring the desert.  For the silly amount of money these things cost, you could buy a really nice, street-legal Jeep.  But that's just me.

As someone said... Yawn.
Never Slow Down, Never Grow Old.

YUP!  :biggrin:

Except knock a Zero off the end of that price, and that's how much I paid for mine.

Hell, I've spent nearly that much in repairs to mine this year (including my rear shock fund).    :sorry:
