I can see some one slipping forward onto that

Yeah; I'll put some padding on just in case. It's angled forward to help add clearance, I popped one of the kids in the seat and slid them forwards and they touched the steering wheel first and not the bar...but for sure, some padding cost nothing to add and its good advice thanks.

I like your style, this thing may end up looking like a JCB though if I get to carried away :-)

Te Miro primary school hosted its annual trolley derby. I entered my oldest daughter into the event on the gokart made in this build thread.

What a fun day, loads of crashes, bumps and scrapes on the kids...but no health and safety Nazis were there to stop the fun and everyone there had a great day! My daughter ended up coming second place in her age division, which was an awesome bonus to end an already fantastic day on.

I may have overestimated my kids driving ability at the start of the build.

Based on what I've seen now maybe a couple more years needed for my younger ones

Just read the whole thread. Awesome KJ.
