Mr Chevy offered Suzi garage space for the winter. I am sure she will love it

Suzi's brake still working well. Maybe after 5 years or so I finally found the root cause of the issue. Some mechanic I am ?

Took Suzi out again today. My cobbled up lower mount on the windshield after it let go on a faster than usual run. Beefed that area up and the next run all was good. Brake is still working BUT it is not the ideal unit for the kind of speed and power Suzi has.

It was 36 degrees when I woke up this a.m. So I parked Suzi into Mr Chevy's garage for her winter hibernation.

I see on another site someone put a Dynoed 440 cc sled engine into a yamaha G9. He claims 53 mph which I totally believe. Wish more people built sled powered carts. I tied to buy a 1998 EZGO ST1200 from north NJ but the seller would not deliver it. It sold quickly. Wanted to Suzi's engine in it. Would have picked up reverse and a whole lot of top speed.

Suzi is parked in Mr Chevy's garage for the season BUT the carsandcameras guys on youtube took out their 440 cc fan cooled sled engined go kart in the snow. Even poorly clutched and tuned they pulled 40 mph with plenty left as Ike probably doesn't want to break any more bones with foolish runs. Too bad we don't see more sled powered carts

The carsandcameras guys on youtube showed their first real run of the 440 cc F/C powered buggy. They are right around 50 mph with the clutch and gearing needing some more tuning. It is great to see some other people doing sled engine builds

On the facebook cart site the 440 cc F/C sled engined cart left double marks even with a posi unit. Others with sled engines do wheelies but Suzi like this other just spins the tire easily. Suzi does not have Posi.

The carsandcameras guys latest video shows the darting around a 125 hp sled engined go kart on their dirt oval. The raw power on sled engines are something else.

They put a muffler on the 125 hp sled engine today. Quite a difference. Still not near as quiet as my 440 cc F/C Suzuki sled engine with a stock HD cart muffler. Of course mine is about 1/3 as powerful
