[Kartbuilding] Fwd: go karts..

[Stephen Burke]

Hi Rex,
On that kart, I had the seat beside the engine.
For the gears, I simply welded a lever onto the gear change shaft
coming out of the left side of the gearbox. The driver can then easily
reach the gear lever with their right hand.
If the gearbox/ engine is not beside the drivers seat, then you will
have to do a setup similiar to this website:

Best of Luck
