Got a new electric Go Kart ''winter'' project idea rolling around in my head.
- Thread starter I74
- Start date
My long time Buddy Taylor came over this eve. & I let him try out the Kart.
He's the one that used to race Karts around 20 years ago, with ''now'' NASCAR driver Landon Cassill.
We put on about 9 miles, with me riding the elect. Mini.
Him weighing 30+ lbs. less than me,, he frigg'n ''flew'' in it, & had a blast !

We live in a ''very large'' paved subdivision, outside of town,, & am guessing 100+ blocks easy.
The back stretch itself is 1 mile.
It's perfectly fine cruising around here,, as there is also a 'ton'' of Golf Karts ect. ect. that do it also.
Am real lucky to live in a place like this, where we can cruise.
If you look @ the above pic., you will get an idea of the streets.

Sad to say, but the season is coming to a close ''real quick'' here in east central Iowa USA.
Temps were down to 33f* this morning, & the high forecast for the next week, is in the lower 50's,, with periodic rain.
Looks like I might have a ''low 50's & sunny window, ''Tues. mid afternoon,, to bundle up & cruise the Kart for awhile...
Get while the gettin's good.

Took the Kart out for the ''I think'' season finale yesterday aft. ''12/15/21'' for a 1/2 hr.,, before the winds really started picking up.
It was around 72*f yesterday aft !!
Last night,, the sirens went off though ,, as we had Tornado warnings & high winds 'over'' 70 mph,, into the early morning..
It is mid Dec. in east central 'Iowa'',, right ??
The Planet's ''definitely'' all jack up.
I'll take the ''freak'' unusual high temps,, but it's still really got me worried...
Added,,
Seen a thing about 100*f temps in Siberia, & record high temps in Antarctica.
