Go Kart Engines - The Critical Differences
Open wheel karting is just about as thrilling as it gets. Watching expert Indy Car racers speed around a 2 1/2 mile oval track at speeds above 230 mile per hour is a heart-pumping thrill. Open wheel racing has been extremely popular for decades and go cart racing is a modification of this motor sport. The alteration is that go carts are smaller and compete on shortened race courses, but the excitement of driving a go cart can be just as high. Additionally, a large number of racers use go carts as a stepping stone to more expensive, competitive, and speedier racing. This is where some of the top professionals got their initial start.
As with everything else there is a whopping difference in the style of karts that can be raced. Speed is ordinarily determined by the size of the go kart engines, but is additionally influenced by the go kart frame, mainly when it comes to sharp turns. Super Karts are the swiftest type and can hit top speeds of 160 mile per hour or more. If that's too speedy for your taste you can opt to drive other types of go karts that will be a great deal slower. Recreational go carts found at local fun centers will generate speeds that might reach just 10 or 15 mph so there's a significant range for you to select from.
2-stroke or 4-stroke engines are customarily used for racing. Various types of the 4-stroke engine have been very popular in the amusement parks and fun centers, but electric motors are increasing in status. Electric powered motors have a lot of advantages that make them perfect for short family fun center race courses. They are incredibly inexpensive to operate and maintain and require only a charge up once their power becomes too low. There is no need to fill them with expensive fuel because they get their energy from long-term batteries. And with no gas powered engine to break down they are low-priced to maintain. In addition, they can be driven inside due to the fact that they don't give off any harmful emissions. The only negative aspect to electric go carts is that they require recharging after about 20 minutes of operation, but as high-performance battery technology increases the batteries are holding longer charges.
Reliable makers of 4-stroke go kart engines are Tecumseh, Honda, and Briggs and Stratton among others. These manufacturers produce low-powered motors that will furnish from 5 to 20 hp. These engines are typically used by rookie drivers or in fun centers. But don't let the limited horse power deceive you; a lot of these engines can propel a go cart at speeds up to about 45 or 50 mile per hour. This might not seem speedy in your mind, but once you begin driving through corners in a small-sized gocart at these high speeds you'll soon realize just how speedy this really is.
A number of 4-stroke motors have additional muscle and can generate up to 50 horse power. These motors can run at up to 11,000 rpm and are commonly used in various National Championship class races, but if you want to race at top speeds you'll have to get a 2-stroke engine. Many 2-stroke motors will produce as few as 10 horse power or less, but some can also furnish you with 90 hp or more at 16,000 rpm. Speeds around 160 mile per hour can be attained with these strong 2-stroke motors.
In the olden days motors were air-cooled, but with the faster speeds of today the bulk of go kart engines are cooled by water. Many of the less powerful 4-stroke motors are still air-cooled, but the highest hp motors are normally cooled by water. With the numerous differences in power, there is an engine available with your name on it, no matter what style of racing you would like to do.

Need mechanical help with Off road gocart/dunebuggy I plan to build from scratch?
My plan is to build a gocart that has independant suspension so it can go off road easily. I want a four seater but I would rather have a two seater if the extra size decreases handling or stability(and by stability I mean it wont roll easy ). I need a gocart that is almost like a four wheeler (in the sense that it is small)but has a verrrrry quiet, low profile muffler even though it will lower my power. I want it to look and sound like a kids(small) gokart so no one will know the power I have unless I start roastin'. I want it to be as stable as possible so it wont roll( wide compared to skinny) I want neumatic airbags so I can tilt my kart and drive on a hill. I need help with figuring out what kind of parts I will use (ie. how big of axle what engine how much it will cost) how to make it have a low center of gravity and be very stable, how to incorporate all these parts, and your own modification Ideas. any help is greatly needed and appreciated
thanks guys,
Ryan
