Thank you so much for joining the Kartpulse community.
Introduce yourself below! Tell us a little about how you’re involved with karting.
Dean here, aka- IRQVET. I’ve been into vintage mini bikes for a while now so making the transition to karting seemed to be a natural transition. My family and I recently relocated to the Tallahassee area so I’m about 1 hour from the track in Montcello and about 3 hours from the track in Ocala. Those are the two closest tracks I’m aware of.
No kart yet, still in the paralysis by analysis phase as I read others members posts and try to learn more about the world I’m going to enter. (I am no expert)
Welcome! Vintage mini bikes you say? That sounds interesting. Do you have any photos?
My current project, 1968 Bonanza BC1000. (Under Construction/ waiting on parts)
I have three motor options for it. I have a vintage Briggs, a vintage Tecumseh, or a Hemi clone. Would make a fun pit bike for trackways.
(2nd picture is not mine, but what a complete bike looks like)
I recall that minibiles still looked alot like that when I was a teen in the 80s. They look like a lot of fun and are pretty, too!
