Re: The Manco Dingo transformed into suspended Kart
Update,
The kart was stolen but cops found it unharmed at an abandoned house. *Had to pay $105 to towing company to get it back though.  * Bu been messing with steering setup and starting to steer pretty nice with a few things left for me to do differantly still. Replaced old blaster shocks in the rear with some 400ex shocks and rides and jumps so much better. *Still havent done anything to wicked yet with jumping because still have no cage. *But its on softest instead of stiffest and doesnt bottom out anywhere I could get it to bottom out before. *Could bottom it out with just me jumping hard on the rear of it before and takes 2 guys to really try to get it to do it now with it on soft. *Alot better.  |

Re: The Manco Dingo transformed into suspended Kart
It had been a while but thought I would update and share some vids. I currently have the motor out. New engine will be a sled engine. Probably next year project.
I have been messing around with videos of it. Check them out. |

Re: The Manco Dingo transformed into suspended Kart
Didn't mean to piss you off......I have seen a lot of cars go over... think of where your head is in the vid's you have posted.. Its above the rear bar
Another 6" could make a big differece. Or it could be just the angle. Have fun... |

Re: The Manco Dingo transformed into suspended Kart
Looks cool...... I wouldn't tell you to add a cage..... You should see it as a concerned person who went through 6 pages of postings..... And read all of the responces...... And is letting you know what most of us think. SAFETY. Yeah we all hear it. Now if you take it with a grain of salt, All he was saying it looks a little low on the ROLL BAR.
Clearly all of us do NOT want to see anyone get hurt. Now if your hurt by this buggy cart, Well every one here wouldnt want to see xrays of a snapped neck. So that being said...... Have fun and enjoy, But just know the people on this site consider you a fellow builder and minibuggy buddy.... we want to see postings of the project.... Not the RECOVERY OF BROKEN BONES or X rays of pins honding you together. Have fun.... millbilly is right, Regaurdless if you think other wise. |

Re: The Manco Dingo transformed into suspended Kart
I understand the safety but its just the was he typed it sound rude to me. But thats how it goes when reading, you cant read people expression,tone of voice and such. Its easy to misunderstand a joke or statement as a rude comment.
So I took everyones advise and yanked the motor out and cut it in half. Nobody should loose sleep over this death trap anymore. LOL, just kidding, take care, be SAFE!!! |
