I picked one up a week ago and was wondering if anyone else Drives them. I don't know what make mine is, but I know it has a Raptor flathead engine on it.
 
I pit for my buddy and his son. They race alcohol powered Animal engines, at a dirt oval track
 
I shattered my hip in the rental :shock: but they sell and service Rotax with 2 spds at the track. It is a road course setup. 5/8 I believe.
 
hoping to get my boys racing soon.... the oldest is 4 and already loves turning laps in his power wheel around my sct track in the back yard.

That's a 5 horse flathead worked.
 
I can't post pics on here. Haven't renewed my star, what I do know is that the carb is jetted for Alc, but I plan on changing that to a Gasoline jet.

I only want to run this in paking lots and so forth. I got a spare engine too and that has all the internals blueprinted and head is P&P'd according to the guy I got it from.

I just ordered a few replacement parts and got a quote from a local Powdercoater how much he wants to re coat the frame. (it's seen better days) I think the guy left it in a shed that wasn't rain resistant, because there's a lot of pitting and corrosion all over the engine and wheels. All the chrome was rusty too, so I'm going to have that PC'd too.

I could email someone some pics maybe they can ID the frame for me. I know it has 2 piece whels made by VanK and they are alloy. also it had a digitron (tach) but that looks like it's from the 80's and has a small LCD blemish.

It also has Enginetics brakes (rear). I'd love to get a R6 motor and strap that on, just can't afford that at the moment. I will once I graduate and get my job.
