    1st go cart - Finally

    I posted pictures before but not a video. Hope this works.

    Good for you! Sounds great, too. I can relate to your comment about "-Finally", as my build is almost as "old" as yours! I hope to join you in go-karting in the very near future - before my kit's 3rd anniversary.

    Well done, and a terrific milestone.
