Re: GO KART PIX OF TWIN ENGINE 63 SIMPLEX KART
I saw this set-up about 5 years ago when I bought a pair of 820's from EJ. I thought it was bordering on genius but couldn't figure out how I could justify it as vintage. Probably could get away with it on the barstool racer though.

Seems to me everything is REAR legal. The starters are pure genius and every bit as "Vintage" as the 90s Honda Prelude starter featured on the REAR website. Personally I hope to see it, or one like it, in September. Gotolovit....

Just for info....I got these starter setups from EJ Korecky a few years back. I had to do my own mounts for the original WB Mounting System. EJ's mounts were for a 2 rail kart. This starter setup works great. Gene

Abut as 'vintage' as a Honda Prelude.........
Too bad it was done to a vintage chassis.
Loose the WKA crash bars, and electric starters
(and what ever else has been done to it)
and enjoy vintage karting.
