Well here is a new winter project, not really just a few personal things to do to get it ready for the track.
Traded the black 944 for this, a 2004 Birel, ex factory team shifter kart TAG converted, 6 hours on the frame and zero hours on the new 125cc motor.

Josh My two karts are not shifter karts. I am still a rookie and I have enough to learn and do without bringing shifting into the scenario.
I have a rib protector and one new seat on the way for the Rotax kart. The Birel already has a very snug seat.
One thing I really noticed, how much you need a very snug seat. You don't want to have your butt sliding around when going through fast corners.
These things are a blast. Fortunately both karts are fresh and have zero to 5 hours on them. I have spent the weekdn getting the Birel dialed in, lots of little things, loose nut and the side pods needed securing. Also I had to cut the one pod to clear the radiator.
They are fun to drive and I find them fun to work on as well.
