Not this year. But there are quite a few kart tracks around me. Plus I won't ever have to use a stock axle ever again.

More experimenting done but I think I have found the combination I need.
450r linkage and a 200x shock. I can it as low as I want. I have the frame 6" with my bigger tires and can raise and lower from there

Any information on your swap?  Bearings using, how you are going to get rear brake and sprocket to work again.  Did Eddie help you out?

Eddie gave me all the info I needed. The main thing is the bearings. The rest will pretty much just bolt on. I won't have to machine anything like he did. As soon as I get all my stuff in,  I will post everything up.
