Not quite Gulf blue but close
 
The company I work for builds go-karts and bumper boats for the amusement industry. I snuck in a color choice and we built it. It's not quite Gulf Blue but hey, I think its cool.

That wing is gonna provide SERIOUS downforce!

Cool paint job!

With a 4 point harness!

I'd say more like Boise State colours, Eric......but the Recaros are very cool! Looks like Redman and Siffert's Targa Florio 908/3 a bit!

NICE WORK! :)

I think everyone should have a couple of these if not more. You could throw the best party ever. About 2 hours of taking turns (literally) everyone would be ready for some bench racing with refreshments.

Just be sure to take the keys out (if they have a lockout).

What does a concession have to pay to buy those?

Karts start at $3150. Kinda spendy but they are just tools. Tools to make the park owner money and they do it quite well. We build them for easy maintenance and build them tough so they can take the abuse of everyday concession use. People beat the crap out of these things!

I can attest to the durability of these karts. Cant go into many details but "rubbing is racing" isnt it Micah?

My son works at MB2 raceway in Sylmar, CA as a track manager. Those things are fun and fast. He laps my ass, but then again he runs them around the track every night after closing.

Very cool!

herr_oberst 10-24-2011 01:56 PM

That's cool, Eric!

We should figure out a way to play with those at our next Burgers and Brews!

LOL, maybe I can get the guys to "hire" some test drivers :)
