Reminds me of this guy who put a Hayabusa engine and tranny in an original Mini. Sequential gear box plus 200hp in the old Mini sounds like too much fun.

Ya gotta love these wackos, but I doubt these Frankenkarts are actually any faster than regular sanctioned road race karts. Here's a guy in a stock moto, not nearly the fastest of the road racing karts, running a 2.03 or so at Buttonwillow, by my wristwatch. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vzzjdIWyPAY

That would be running with many Vipers, Vettes, S2000s according to the lap records at http://www.speedventures.com/track_records_db.asp
