Neuroti-Kart: Custom-Built Electric Go Kart

Created by "wires99", this custom-built electric go kart is "powered by four, 12V car batteries and the frame was made from Home Depot gas pipes." Video after the jump. A short word from its creator:
This is the Neuroti-Kart. (PsychoKart was taken) Homemade electric go-Kart. Design goals: electric powered, quiet, fast, capable of doing donuts in my street

It sounds like the motor aint can pul full RPM after the skids, it kind of slows down and can not keep the weels spinning. Put it is way cool and I want one :-)

Hi. I just discovered your link to my gokart, which I call "Neurotikart". Thanks for the mention! Kenny mentioned that the motor slows after skids. He's right - the controller has a delayed acceleration curve programmed into it, and I have been unable to change it. I hear that this makes life easier on the controller. Besides, in the original application, you didn't want the controller to be too aggressive and spill all the golf clubs. :D A cop saw me with it on the street and warned me that I really shouldn't drive it on public streets. He was nice about it and didn't ticket me. The neighbors are ok with it, because I really don't take it out much, and they can drive it if they want. I'm building a second one and taking video as I go along. I hope to show that, if I can do it, you can. It's not really too hard. I don't really have drawings or plans, but I'm working on that, too. It's just not as fun as building and driving. The key things needed to build one are a MIG welder (less than $400), a saw (a hacksaw will do, but I have a cheap bandsaw, about $170), some basic tools, and the desire. Thanks again for the mention! -Mark www.neurotikart.com
