Great pictures Ed
Hey, I thought my lowers steering bracket was right out of my head, until I just saw yours and remembered that I had seen it before and must have copied it subliminally??

Ed, have you built one of these before? Me thinks you have insider knowledge. Good work chap.
I think I'm going to have to put mine on a diet next winter looking at your skeleton frame.

Think you orta christen that kart the "Holy Rail" Ed. I wonder just how much
weight you've chopped out of it? I'd really like to hear what the final weight of
the kart is. Also, if ya'll get a chance to do a weight and balance with it, I'd sure
like to add that to the data that I've been trying to collect. I've got three or four
guys that have posted the weight distribution for their karts, but I'd like to have
a few dozen or more to figure some averages.
Are you planning on setting aside some pasture for a test course?
Great looking kart, it's one that I'm following with interest.
tks,

Jan to Apr....wow, great progress Ed. It's looking mighty fine and looks
like you'll be laying some paint on it pretty soon now.
Thanks for posting the pix for us, I know it adds to the build time but
seeing your progress is an incentive for us slackers to get off our butts
and put some wheels on the ground also.

Hi Denny We planted winter wheat the last couple of years because of the dry summers we have been getting so except for harrowing the alfalfa fields I am good to go this spring. I have finished the riveting and am prepping for paint. Here are some picks. Thanks Ed.
