Doc said it best. You have made Kansas a 'kid heaven.' :tup:

That's awesome! I'm amazed at the punishment the little GY6 can take.
|
The big girls put it to the test this afternoon. I saw it on two wheels and in the air a few times. Lost the battery so we had to make a new strap and crimp some new connections on. Recycled a fuse holder from the green van.
|
Good thing it has a roll bar!
|
It's also good you geared it down. :hehe:
|
Loving this for a toy and fantastic to see your kids getting stuck in and having some daddy spec fun!
|
It has been alot of fun.

The buggy is still working great. Just needs a new battery. Current one won't hold a charge after someone left the lights on.
Emilie just starting driving it tonight. |
Your kids are going to tell awesome stories about you!
|
You mean that Daddy jumped the pond dam with them.

I couldn't see anything. Google is trying to get me to create a Plus account. Can you embed the vid or pics?
|
|
Not sure if that link will work. I made the video public. My phone automatically loads them to google backup for me.
|
Same result.
|
Okay. I will see what i can find. Maybe I can download it.
The girls had a sleepover the go kart has been subjected to multiple drivers. It always starts and seems to just go. Time to do an oil change and grease it. |
The video worked for me. :tup: I loved it when she entered open ground, and floored the accelerator pedal. ;)
:hehe: |
Must be Canada.:hmm:
Not really sure. I don't use google plus, just the picture backup. |
I plan to change the seat rails so that it will move farther forward and then add better seat belts. I am watching some from a Jr dragster that are out of date.
|
I am thinking these may work well. The stock ones the buckles don't unlatch easily.

Emilie is a good driver. :tup:
|
I hope you get those belts for a good price.
BTW, I was in the States when I tried to view the vid. I'll try another browser later. |
Maybe Spud has a gmail account. I really don't know.
|
I do have a gmail account. :shrug:
|
Me too, but not Google Plus.
|
I will see if I can get it uploaded someplace else.
|
I have found where I can upload from google plus to youtube.

I used my phone so the video is not very good.
|
Awesome! Thanks for taking the time to upload it to YT. She looks very confident behind the wheel.

Seat Relocation

Emilie and Lily are too short to sit in the seat and reach the pedals.
Today in the Dumpstertech Laboratory I removed the seat and developed a new mount. Version 1 was not high enough. It was 1" square tube. Version 2 is made from the frame rail of a lawn tractor. Perfect 3" height and the channel made for easy bolting to the seat rails and the frame. Buford the lab assistant was there to test. I can now move the seat forward enough for them and back enough that I can still squeeze in there. Next is the new safety harness. |
Nice work, as always. :tup:
Buford has a tough job, but somebody has got to do it. ;) :hehe: |

Seat belt is here. Emilie bumped a tree yesterday and bruise her elbow.
|
At least she's young, and she'll heal quickly. Bruised elbows really smart!

New safety harness installed.
|
You're gonna raise a group of crazy off-roaders! :D
|
It appears someone was collecting eggs with the buggy. ;)
|
Yes she was. It makes a pretty good farm vehicle.
|
It survived 3 solid hours of riding tonight with 5 different kids. One reliable machine. Emilie also toted off some branches and a load of apples.
|
3 hours on one gallon of gas.
|
That's impressive! That machine was an excellent purchase.
