Operating a go kart track seems like an excellent idea and I hope it is successful. Can I suggest that you open it up in Prairieville Louisiana and arrange it like The Track in Destin Florida (pictured below)?
If you build it, they WILL come (or at least my family would, LOL)!
Regarding the
Shocks: In all honesty I'm OK with not being able to rebuild them, and the fact that they are quite inexpensive and readily available is a massive plus. And they are indeed cool looking
Regarding the
Engine: I grew up riding around on a Manco Quicksilver single seater equipped with a Briggs 3hp (or 3.5hp) and the kart was an absolute blast as a kid. I basically want a scaled up version of that simple kart that I can play around with my kiddos (and wifey).

Thanks! The build continues....
