    I recently purchased a new motor for my bumper car. The last motor wa about a 1.5 hp. I found a 6 hp motor. The picture is of the man I give my thanks to for helping me get my motor, getting it on, and hooking it up.

    I hope to take it to the Frankenmuth car show after Labor Day and other little car shows.

    Way to go, but I hear that Buckle beat you TWICE :)
    You need to take more pictures and show all the cool stuff you've done, like the fact the entire body hinges up.

    Yeah it is a blast and without the help of Buckle, and some other neighbors I would not be where I am now. Thanks

    That is some cart I have to say, it even hauls with my over-weight butt in it.

    Chris is an easy person to help, he listens well and really applies himself which is way more than I can say for myself when I was in eighth grade. I do believe I see a real hot rodder in Chris, when he was having trouble with his last motor and we couldn't git' er going, he pursuaded me to go look at a much larger one with him which we ended up bringing home that night, ha ha ha, I like it!!:D

    I was having so much fun I actually ended up buying an old school mini-bike last sunday so I can chase him around the neighborhood.:eek:

    Thanks.
    And after three tries, one day I will beat you in a race.
    One day this summer we got to get like 5 or 6 people on go-carts/ mini bikes to race.
