Why Wood?
Sure, steel karts are fun and strong, but they require a large
number of specialized tools to build, repair or modify. Tools
that most people don’t have. Wood, on the other hand, can
be crafted with tools available in most homes and all home
improvement stores. We want to provide kits that people
can make their very own, by painting, xing or modifying and
wood is a natural t for this.
The wood used in this kit is a 3/4 inch Baltic Birch plywood.
It is a natural t for the go-kart due to it’s strength and
appearance. The 13 plies make it incredibly strong and
give the end grain a beautiful contrast. Best of all, it can be
modied, repaired or reworked with common household
tools.
Good to know
It is vitally important that anyone riding a go‑kart wear the
proper protective gear. The rider should wear, at a minimum,
a full‑face DOT‑rated engine cycle helmet, gloves and a
helmet supporting neck brace. These items and other safety
equipment are not supplied with the kits but can be found
through many online or retail sellers.
We aim to provide the best assembly documentation in
the industry and will include written instructions and online
videos for all of the crucial steps. We will be available to
help you through the process, so if you need assistance,
please ask. However, this is a kit and the ultimate
build quality is up to you.
