Hi, I’m looking for some ideas on how to beat my friend on our backyard track.
He has an old John’s kart with 2 hemi Predators. Both engines have billet flywheels, 0.020” longer billet rods, Dyno 2 cams, header, K&N filter and copper head gaskets. My kart is an old Bob’s kart. I have the same engine modifications except my head is ported and the carb re-jetted.
Our track is about 1/3 mile with 500 and 600 foot straightaways. My kart handles much better so I do better in the turns but he kills me in the straights.
I don’t want to copy his 2 engine setup. It would be great to beat him with a single Predator but I don’t know how to double my H.P.
I’m looking for other ideas like 420 Predator, motorcycle engine, some kind of transmission??????
Let’s hear your ideas.
Thanks Jamie
