Shifter Karts
A Shifter Kart is an extremely sophisticated racing machine, with a 125cc, water-cooled 2-stoke engine, producing upwards of 45 horsepower, with the power-to-weight ratio of a Ferrari, a Porsche Turbo Carrera, or other similar exotic and expensive sports and racing cars!
This type of Kart has a six-speed sequential gearbox and four-wheel disc brakes, and the performance of these “pocket rockets” is astonishing, accelerating from 0 to 60 mph in 4 seconds, with the capability to reach top speeds in excess of 120 mph!
In addition to the rapid acceleration these Karts are capable of, the corning and braking performance is even more startling, and “neck stressing”, achieving lateral cornering forces of 2.5 g’s, with rapid de-acceleration under hard braking to match!
It has been said by many an expert, that driving these type of Karts are as close as you can get to driving a Formula One or Indy Car, in respect to the skills and reflexes needed to pilot these machines, due to the speed in which these Karts react to the drivers input.
In fact, many of the top professional race car drivers train in these types of Karts to stay sharp and in shape, as driving these Karts is extremely demanding physically, due to the high g-loads on put on the driver'sbody.
