Carson Model Sports "First" Nitro-Powered 1/4.5 RTR Go-Kart
 

Heres a nice project for someone :party:

Are you a RC enthusiast seeking something new? Something unique? Something fun? If you are, then check out Carson Model Sports RTR ¼ and a half scale Go-Kart.

This is no small introduction, in fact it’s a unique ¼ and a half scale, a distinctive size for a high performance kart. A full 14.75“ in length and 10.875” wide, they’ll see you coming… and going. The “FIRST” features reliable belt drive and centrifugal clutch for smooth idling and excellent power transfer, and it’s complete out of the box.

Being such a new and irregular- yet cool design in RC, you would believe that the ¼ and a half scale Go-Kart would put a nice dent in your pocket. Although, newbies and RC enthusiats alike will be very suprised with the friendly price of the RTR Go-Kart.

That looks awsome :gasp: :smile:.

:rofl::rofl::rofl:

That is hilarious I was just reading that same thing in my Amain news letter. It looks pretty cool though, im sure someone can stuff a ridiculous sized brushless motor and a nice lipo pack in there :intello:

Cool!

That thing must have terrible balance! It's an interesting idea, but poor execution IMO.

Yeah but it is pretty cheap - $249.99

Maybe throw a few stick-on lead weights under that left fender? That thing must corner like a dream with that square wheelbase... It does seem like a good project.

I must say that they are a few years behind. Kyosho had a 1/4 scale RC Kart a long time ago and I've even seen one converted to brushless.
