Hey…. look who it is. 😯
Glad you found this website, I was going to email you a link to it.
I dont believe there are any KT-100 clases here, so you are going to want to change the motor. I’d probabily go to TaG, so you can go to any of the motors that are legal for that class. Rotax and Leopard are the most common it seems.
I just got my kart today, so I’m down to go out and practice whenever you are ready. ❗
You should check out Harbor Freight for some cheap 4×8 trailers.
BTW, everyone watch out if this guy is behind you on a straight…. he just might plow you off the course. 😯 Ask me how I know. 😆
“gang” thing to put fear into the experienced drivers here 😆 . I don’t think Jason or Brad will be able to resist the pull much longer 🙂
Thanks for the tip on the trailer. Which one did you get ? Also which motor did you end up getting on the kart ?

Zev – Don’t waste your money on Ebay and REALLY don’t waste your money on a Yamaha KT-100….there isn’t a class to run them in and I really doubt there ever will be. Run Tag
Zev, Dennis is right on. KT 100’s are pretty much non existant in this area. Keep the chassis and get a different motor package.
Rusty
killer chassis and a good motor that I can sell off to lower the cost of entry into the TAG class.
I bought the kart from my friend who was Memo Gidley’s rommate. THe kart was a Trackmagic kart from Memo. I don’t see how I wasted any money looking at the overall picture ????
Thanks for your input.
Zev,
I bought the kart from Dennis (2 posts up). It came with a Rotax on it. Originally, I wanted a Leopard, but after looking into it more, it seems the Rotaxs are very competitive and also enjoy a lower weight restriction.
I bought a used 3.5″x7.5″ trailer frame, then extended the deck out to approx. 5″x7.5″. Bought the frame for $175 plus another $100 in wood for the deck(wouldn’t think wood was so expensive).
Try searching denver.craigslist.com for used trailers. I posted a wanted ad on that site and thats how I found mine. If that doesn’t work, I’m pretty sure the heavy duty folding trailers from Harbor Freight are on sale now for $200. Add a wood deck and you are set.
As far as finding a used motor goes, I found that every used motor package was not much cheaper than buying new. Either way, I’d keep your eye on ebay. Every once and a while a used/new motor package will come up and sell for a good price. Also search the web for some kart classifieds, as there are a ton out there.
Are you going to practice with the KT100 on there or wait for a new motor?
Zev,
Go out to IMI or Action and talk with Bobby/Brad or JB respectively and talk costs with them. They will give you a great snapshot of the kart racing in this area.
No KT100 class here.
Welcome aboard and go Tag!
I will talk to those guys for sure !

Geezus, I hate you guys…. 👿
Obviously, I am here for a reason…to spend money now, becuase I have to.
Anyone selling a nice Leopard or Rotax with low hours?
Brad
Hey Waflnutz, I have a low hours Leopard for sale. I hate to sell it, but something has to go. You can throw some of that $ my way…
Check the classifieds. My kart is top-shelf all the way around.I too, have a decent Leopard kart for sale. Decent price.
Engine has a about 10 hrs on it.
Go check check it out at Action Karting. Tell them you want to see Chaz’ kart.
Hey Chaz, how are you doing! haven’t heard from you in awhile.
Selling your kart. Does this mean no more racing? 😯 🙁
Be good and take care
