Great Job & Congratulations From The Swamp Lands Of Louisiana!

Thank you GoDadGo, wish I had a little more open room to run her but that first up and down the street sure was satisfying. Can't wait to do it some more :-)

Congrats. First go cart is a great accomplishment and a great feeling! Looks great.

Congratulations. Looks and sounds great! How long did it take to get all the little pebbles out of the interior after you were done driving? I had 'em everywhere...trunk, floor, seats, even the cupholders!

I for sure got pelted a few times. And yes, I found cinders in places I didn't expect them to be. Every little pebble I picked out of there was worth it!

Congrats!! Engine sounds good. A pair of safety glasses and go again!

Thank you everyone for the kind words. After first start, I just couldn't get the motor running right so I decided to ship it off to a local hot rod shop here in Pottstown, PA. They were able to correct a few issues along the way plus get it aligned properly. Notably, my 02 sensor needed to be re-located. It's just nice to be able to check off the list that everything is working (other than my speedo), and move on to the next phase of the project.

Sounds great! I loved the color commentary as you went up and down the street...
