I know what you mean if they are neglected. Flush them after every ride and they'll be fine. We have guys that ride in Cali and FLA all year round. And some of those skis are the nicest you'll see. Plus they make stuff like Salt Away to help keep the metal nice.

Snow Kart? Front half buggy, rear half snow track?
Liquid cooled engine shouldn't be an issue. Hell some of the conversion guys are running air cooled engines and say they haven't experienced problems with heat.

Buggy front, track back WOULD be cool....
