There shouldn't be armco at a properly designed kart track.
I'm still trying to come to grips with the 'lack of harness, so you will just be thrown clear of the kart thing' everytime I watch my son out on the track.
Just watching 'normal' 125cc shifter karts at my son's track makes me wonder what some guys are thinking.

Hahaha that video got me kicked off of Rutger's network....

Apparently...about a year after I posted a link to the video (on my rutgers website)...the link really spread and I was using up 1/3 of rutgers student website bandwidth. In the first week or 2, 65 gigs were moved. If you searched google for gixxerkart, the first few and who knows how many more hits were links to my site.

You can still find remnents...Last link on page 1..

But yes, amazing kart...video is several years old....wonder what they've come up with since then...
