Video of the Week: Gixxer Kart Versus Hayabusa


We’re on a bit of a go-kart kick today as we spent yesterday reviving and thrashing a Craigslist find 5hp kart for a family member. That little devil was a hoot to terrorize the neighborhood with and frankly, we’re now trolling seriously for either a kart chassis or mini-bike chassis to plunk the 8hp motor we have in our basement onto. That would give us a fun toy, not an insane death machine like the dudes in this video. A 750cc Suzuki GSX-R motorcycle engine on a go-kart chassis is crazy beyond our league.

Sure, right now you’re saying, “I’d drive it!” That’s all well and good but stuff happens toute quick on a normal racing kart. Not much warning when the ends feel like swapping. You’re “I’d drive it!” sentiment may be replaced with an, “Oh fiddlesticks!” When your tukus is careening backwards toward the guard rail or the woods. This thing and these guys are nuts. We love ‘em and we’d be keen to check it out in person. Just not in the drivers’ seat. A man’s got to know his limitations.
