Get on! Drag-Kart design exercise is coming along nicely. The frame is taking shape, although looking a little heavy, and the seat is currently a surface-mesh translated from a Google's Ketchup model of a Lancia by ..., which I'm gradually building into a set of solids so I can round the edges off and generally give it a more Bride LoMax shape. Adding detail from front to back, the suspension setup is finished, complete with silly negative-camber, but I have made a 'shim-block' to bolt between the shocks if you wanted less angle on the wheels, which you probably would. The steering is also complete, minus the steering-wheel [that dark bar isn't connected to the frame] and the pedals are inwith the beginning of the throttle + brake cable ready to be run back to what they control... A brake-caliper is nearly ready, but the engine will be the final task. It's not clear yet whether it will be a single or twin-cylinderbadboy, but it WILL be 2-stroke, elaborated from the TurboCAD tutorial for, well, some kind of engine, maybe even a pump-housing or whatever it is.
