Crazy Mental Incredible Kart Racing From New Zealand!

August 8th, 2008 · Comments Off

Occasionally a novelty twin engined Rotax, or 100cc will pop up on these shores from time to time. Only let out when the track is clear and the air ambulance and fire brigade is on standby! Well down in New Zealand they don’t just build them, they race them.

Not just content with having a twin 100cc, these boys will bore each engine out to 118cc. These karts are crazy fast. If you think think that is the maximum you could take these karts too… then you would be wrong. Some dude runs a 125cc gearbox engine coupled with a 100cc!!!!!!

Check out the 2008 ‘Open’ National Sprint Championship video. This is proper mentalist racing, and it’s freakin’ brilliant :) keep watching until the end it is VERY funny!
