Re: Can Someone I.D. This Kart?

The Standun Rocket has an entirely different front axle that the "what is it" kart but I have to agree they have the late 50's build style.

Re: Cool videos

Hello Ted, I was referring to the very first kart driver in the second posted video with the pudding bowl helmet that looked a tad on the small side! He had a 3 man crew of throw backs from the Desert Rats of WWII. But in the last of the video, the finish/winner circle there is no doubt who that is....

Re: Cool videos

That does not look like the Bobby Allen in my 1960 KW magazines driving a twin Mac 10 powered Exterminator at Nassau?

Being a motorcycle guy I could not resist looking at the French Hill Climbs you tubes after the Rupp video, those guys have it going on!

Re: Passing of Duff Livingstone

I was at TBO when Mr. Duffy Livingstone attended, to have him spend the time he did with me telling the history of how he started "Go Kart" and to have read the stories in early 1960's Karting World magazines was a akin to catching a Mantle or Maris home run ball. Nuff said, RIP to a legend!

Great TBO Rob and Bob! Saturday at the track was awesome and the evening meal was superb. Lots of action on Sunday as well. See you next year. Tom
