The kart seems to run good... although I have not gotten to really drive it much because the kids are always around (christmas surprise). I sneaked it into my garage/shop and put a tarp over it. It cranks right up... although today I cranked it for my wife and it idled for about 20 seconds and died... but I'll have to check it later this week when the kids are not around. The guy I bought it from sent in the stock front end suspension to **********.com and they upgraded it to heavy duty, but I did notice the 4 "ball joint" bolts were bent slightly on the front end, but I know this is common. I might replace them later with the aftermarket stronger bolts. I am going replace some cosmetic items first and clean it up as best I can. I would love to go ahead and paint it a dark green and add camo foam and foam wraps and seat covers (my son likes camo), but painting it seems like a big job between now and Christmas... I'm assuming I would need to take off everything from the frame.
