You should talk to Roger Ruthart and see if they'll let you run that kart as a demo at Rock Island.

RILEY,
Please have a tag kart out on the track when you do your test so we have a idea how big of a difference in performance there is. |

Tyson,
Unfortunately the weather has been really wet for the past 2 weeks up here. The plan, if the rain holds off today and tomorrow, is to go out to the track tomorrow for the first track session. If it all works out, I will have tons of video that will be posted.
Thanx for your interest, I look forward to showing it off:)

The kart was amazing tonight! Mechanically flawless and blistering fast! The drivers were amazed that it handled "wicked"! Video coming Monday, stay tuned!

89mph!! On that track?? Holy crap! 
I see the fast lap was a 46sec. What is a good time for a KZ there? (Im assuming at least a second slower  )
That thing is wicked  |

No GoPro....COME ON! We can't get the real feel of it without on-board footage. I think we need to see a race-off between that and Alex Tagliani's dual KZ package that was at the 2003 SuperNats...maybe at this year's race in Vegas????

We had a Go-Pro mounted but the battery died as we left the pits:( Going out this thursday again. Gotta find Go-Pro donors:). All the fellas with them are driving to a Westerns Race...
My twin makes 90 HP in its present state of tune and weighs 215lbs wet. What are the specs on Tag's kart?
The speed trace on data was just as strong till the very end (slope) as it was in its midrange. I'm going out with lengthened pipes a little to gain more acceleration. I want to limit RPM to 15,800. We saw as much as 16200!
More to come.....
