First of all I am 14 and drive 80 cc shifter karts around the western part of the U.S. and the East Coast periodically. My kart weighs about 300 lbs. with me in it and has an RM 80 motocross motor. It usually runs about 90 on the tracks we run at and runs a 0-60 mph time of about 3.6 sec.
Anyways my dad was at work and I decided since my friend was over I would have him start me and help me run the kart up the street a bit. My neighbor pulls up and is in his 96 Impala SS with some mods. All he says is underdrive pulleys but you can hear the intake noise and exhaust. He sticks his head out the window and asks for a race. I notice my water temp is low but I pull up next to him anyways. I spin it up to 13,000 rpm and he launchs so I dump the clutch and bog it. I start pullin him in and run out of road. we ran the 1/8 , roughly. I roll back and he does too. He offers another run and now I am up to temp. We line up and when he leaves I dump it and pull past him hard off the line. By the end of the street I was in 6th gear at about 94 mph and he was 10-12 cars back. He still is mad at me
