That rear suspension is fantastic! It reminds me of some older RC cars that I used to race: I was wondering how well it would work when scaled up :) I also love that this is a family hobby for you and yours. Even your "mechanic" is looking adorable in her overalls :D

Time to build a second one and do a whole video series on it! Would love a better close up of the suspension or maybe a crude diagram? Great videos keep posting them

Spoiler alert , I already built a second one and it’s completely different but equally as complicated, I will be showing it next week. But your right, it’s really hard to see the rear suspension. If you pause the video on some of those photos before I put the body on you can get a better view.

You will want to join the face book group or at least go look at the cycle karts of North America group, that’s where a lot of the event info is. We have a couple of guys from Spokane area that come to the events in Seattle so there are some karts over there to check out. If you go to www.cyclekartclub.com and introduce your self I am sure you will be able to connect with them. As for building a kart, I say buy 50$ worth of 1x1 square stock and get to work on what you have , then in a month or two when you run out of stuff to do spend another 50-100$ and build a little more. Before you know it you will have a kart with very little impact to the budget. That’s what most of us do.

Could I make a street legal cycle car?

Well anything is possible with enough time and money but realistically no. Nor would you want to, they would be uninsurable and extremely dangerous to drive on The road with full size cars. in the long run the process of getting a VIN so that state patrol would approve it to be a licensed vehicle would be unlikely to every happen.

There's a guy in Virginia who built a kart that is very similar to a Cyclekart and is street legal, but there are significant differences. Head, tail and brake lights, turn signals, horn, 21" wheels and a 3-speed tranny. Not exactly a Cyclekart, but if you really want to, it is possible in some places.

@@TheJunkHunter Well, it's not quite a cycle car. It falls somewhere in between. Do a search. If you see it you can then decide what YOU want to call it. As far as I'm concerned it's a street legal Cyclekart.

If you want something small and street legal, look into the King Midget automobile. It was produced in the US in the 50s through the 70s, and is a two seater with a lawnmower engine.
