  Santa & Sleigh on Flight Radar 24 at 60K feet
Posted by: Mark Loraine - 12-24-2023, 09:53 AM - Forum: General - No Replies

Scroll out to see the global tracking of Santa's sleigh as he progresses around the world to leave presents for all the good little boys and girls.

Careful Santa, Q-9 Reapers cruise at that altitude.

even the flight data as you scroll down shows longs and lats.

  1955 "Little Dart" Go Kart on eBay.
Posted by: Mark Loraine - 12-19-2023, 07:54 AM - Forum: For Sale/Wanted - Replies (1)

Interesting go cart, I've been scheisse deep in small engines since the early 70's and I've never even seen a Briggs and Stratton model K.  Whats strange is the photo's were taken against a white background.

  Chainsaw power
Posted by: Terry Bentley - 12-18-2023, 05:25 PM - Forum: General - Replies (11)

Anyone want to take a guess at which model McCulloch this chainsaw this is? There is only one right answer. First one that is correct gets an ATABOY from Dave.

Dave will even include a Roundtuit if you can correctly identify both the engine model and make of this chassis.

  Nitpick this pic
Posted by: Terry Bentley - 12-18-2023, 05:07 PM - Forum: General - No Replies

Since a picture is worth a thousand words, see what you can pick out in this one.

This pic was taken at the 1959 GPKCA Nationals Labor Day weekend in Allentown Pa. It was a 100 mile race.

Engine on the #7 kart is a Power Products AH-81 mounted on a 1959 Bug driven by Capt "Red" Crise.
Bob Palmini came up with this idea as an early version of the Nassau panel.
Did you notice these karts even have bumpers?

Look over the picture and add what you can. What you see and what you might think is going on.

  SOLD MC 90 fir sale

.jpg   MC90.JPG (Size: 101.08 KB / Downloads: 6)    SOLD

Please keep in mind when reading this Craigslist posting of my MC90 engine, I am speaking to the GDP, and certainly not to the seasoned veteran Vintage and Historic karters on this forum! If Forum readers are interested, use the PM method for contact and not the craigslisp contact option. This will allow you to get the engine for a $50 discount. ($525 plus shipping and insurance) 
(Just letting you know I don’t use auto spell correct)
This is a cash sale only and those  that want it shipped with insurance will need to use a POSTAL Money order, as I am not 1099K friendly.

Exceptionally nice block/crank and piston & rod assembly, all stock OEM parts present. Most of the hardware is allen head though.

Thanks to Louie Figone, I learned that the old track was getting ready to reopen. I was following the Auction back when it was happening, but never looked any further  till today.
Here are some links I think you'll enjoy watching and reading about the new life breathed into this Iconic Site.

Does anyone know who ran/had the website kartingarchives.com? It is down and if I had the files for the catalogs and ads I could host them to be searched and viewed again.
