[Kartbuilding] General Information

[Stephen Burke]

Hi Dennis,

What type of kart do you think your students would like to make? While a 
wooden go-kart would be the easiest to make, and other schools have done 
so, see:
http://kartbuilding.net/gallery/v/OtherPeoplesKarts/high-school-bogey/
http://kartbuilding.net/Wooden_Go-Kart_Plans/index.html
15-17 year olds might want to build a metal go-kart with an engine.

In that case I suggest you look at the racing kart plans at:
http://kartbuilding.net/racingkart/index.html
Extra photos of these plans can be found at:

If you have any specific questions, just drop us an email.

Best of luck,
-steve
