      I can’t do Grattan this month, but count me in for next year’s adventures.  I’m all for playing on some new tracks.

      Oil on the pulse side will dampen the pressure pulse and change the response of the diaphragm.  I say pressure pulse because it alternates between a positive pressure pulse, piston moving down, and a negative pressure pulse, piston moving up.  There are a lot of “depends” here such as how much oil and what engine RPM, but the end result will be reduced pump efficiency.  So if its your supply pump you could run out of fuel in the carb or at least go lean, and the opposite if its your return pump assuming a pump-around system.  Ideally your pump(s) should be mounted such that any oil can drain out of the pump and flow back to the engine.

      When I talked with MCP on the phone when I started building a new F-125 laydown kart, before I got my superkart, they readily admitted that the speed and weight of a laydown 125 shifter kart was pushing the capbility of what they had available.  I did buy the biggest stuff they had, but never finished the kart so can’t say how the brakes worked.  MCP did suggest that I consider brakes from a shifter kart or superkart.  Off the top of my head for superkarts you are looking at PVP, Kelgate, Brembo and possibly others.  If you go that route, I would recommend buying the complete system front and rear along with the master cylinders.

      That little TV is a gem!  And last I checked the VHS actually worked.  Kind of like a time machine but without Scooby-Do.  It actually had a nice picture hooked up to a DVD player.  The TV runs off of either 12VDC or 120 VAC.
