Yazoo mowers and karts were built in Jackson, Mississippi. My Pop sold them 1958-1962. The Yazoo kart I know was the Yazoo Dragster; a heavy red machine with a big Yazoo decal on the inside of the seatback. They had scrub brakes, and most were sold with Clinton A400, A490 and E-65 engines. The Super Speedster sounds like more of a fun kart, but I'm not sure about that model. Ted

Thank you for the feedback.I had a guy call me and offer one for sale and I had never heard of one.I am told it is in bad shape so with your feedback I do not think I will be interested.
