$2,850 for the package
2009 Maranello RS8 Chassis in great condition.
The 125cc Rotax Max engine uses the newer style clutch. It has a few hours on an upper rebuild and about 30 hours on the lower end (no passport); I bought it off this forum from a forum member (i bought 3 engines from him and they all run great). It runs as it should as the youtube video shows (recorded last night):

The chassis is a cool design, lots of adjust-ability, is very grippy and makes an insane wet / rain kart. It is made of 30mm tubing. Maranello was manufactured in / near the CRG factory in Italy. It uses the great CRG VEN05 self-adjusting brake system. Because I have it set up for the Rotax class, the front master cylinder is removed. But it is included in the sale, as is the shifter handle/linkage and big radiator and airbox. This chassis can be used as a shifter or TAG/Rotax. It is currently sitting on good MG tires.
Here are 2 good articles about the chassis when it was introduced:

The axle is rated “hard”. The rear axle is supported by 3 bearings. As the pics show, the 3rd bearing and brake are center-located on the chassis. The kart comes with a Micron 3 display (lap times, water temp, and tachometer). Also included is a medium Tillet padded seat.
Weather permitting, you can test drive the kart at OVRP
