Go kart tires on the back, right? Very cool looking, hope to see a great power plant for it~! Should think about a water cooled engine....gives you more power to drift around.

Id keep the rear tires/axle set up and find some go kart slicks for the front. Imagine drifting that thing around the turns

its funny you say that i bought a kx 65 about 2 weeks ago for this project but it aint going i have (had) an extra quad frame for it to try it out on i made brackets bent tubing everything you can think of i even cut the frame in half and extended it not going to happenthe atleast not with the same body it would work but would look dumb as hell i should have taken pics little 65 motor is a bit bigger than you think im looking for another quad like a small four stroke frame like a kids size and go back withe the same tire and wheel setup with the 65 motor
