Greetings all,


Now that I have my vintage Suzuki GT550 (2 stroke, of course) back on the road and running as it should, I'm looking for a new project. I raced karts in the '70s abs '80s (mostly dirt, some paved oval & road course), and I still have two karts up in the attic of the garage along with 5 or 6 Mac 91s and a Margay gearbox.

I'm trying to decide whether to get one running to race at a vintage event, get them running to sell, or sell them as is. I guess it depends on where vintage events are located (I'm in New Jersey) and what kind of market there might be for my stuff.

Any thoughts would be welcomed.




Hi Bill, welcome to the forum. You could certainly sell them but why not try some vintage events first. We have a great group of people and have a lot of fun. there are several events out your way. Look on the Vintage Karting Association website for the guidelines and event schedule.Also some events not listed out your way. Contact Dave Luciani for those. Also another website is Vintage Karts Forum. If you want more help please aska as there are plenty of guys willing to help including me.What karts do you have?

I hope you will join us!
