here´s som info on whats going on in my garage at the moment !
1: Purposly built driftcar, an RWD Mitsubishi EVO 2 1994

Stock topspeed with 15" 195/55 wheels, 240bhp is 240kph
I have three sets of different icetires to try out
#1: 145/80-15 iceracingtires with 3308mm studs in each tire (so called rally snowtires)
#2: 205/50-17 TOYO SnowProxes studded wintertires (stock street legal)
#3: homemade icetires using 185/55-15 racingslicks with 25mm x 6mm bolts/nuts
fitted to the tires, 170pcs in each tire
Enginespecs:
Wiseco 8:1 pistons
Wiseco pistonrings
Eagle conrods
ARP bolts everywhere in the engine
Clevite race bearings
raceportad head
Matchported intake/exhaust channels
matchported exhaust manifold (DNP) & intakemanifold
Cometic multilayer steel headgasked
1240cc B J P RACE injectors
AEM fuel rail, modifyed with twin 10mm entry & single 8mm return line
DN Performance ehaust manifold coated on inside
Precision 680hk turbocharger
Balanceshaft removalkit
NGK Bp6es sparkplugs with 0,5 gap
10,5mm race ignitioncables
NX Nitruos kit (roughly 200bhp) coming soon
Oilcatchtank 0,75L using 3pcs small airfilter
4" K&N airfilter (big model)
VEMS fuelinjectionsystem
Running on E85 (Ethanol) as fuel, the engine gives about 550bhp @1,7bar
If I´m in 4th gear @ 2k revs & i floor it, then nothing happens, but at
4400revs the tires start to spin all the way to the revlimiter at 8500rpm :-D
1500rpm higher revlimiter than stock which "should" enable me to reach 300kmh on tarmac.

I bulit this kart to attend Swedish landspeedcompetition in June -09, but this was
cancelled due to sudden insurance issues.
So i have had some months now trying out what works & what does not.
here is a video of my friend Rasmus (15yrs old) attending a driftingpractice with the kart,
gearing in the video is 12/17 & he uses only seciond gear

The 18front/17rear gearing = 262kph if the engine will reach 8500rpm in fifth gear, but with the
ice-racing"studds" fitted around the wheels, the gearing is about 12% higher = a lot & extra speed :-)

Hi, i dont understand what you mean, but i think you mean for aerodynamic reasons ?
The car is 95% bulit for Serious drifting (trackracing while sliding the rear end)
(or did you comment on the girls :-D )

Just today i got my handmade front sprocket for the gocart:
its a hybrid between a stock front sprocket & the outer part of an front sprocket from a -67 Triumph 650.
so finally the gearing will be 18 tooth front & 17 tooth rear.
this equals about 60-65mph in first gear.... & i have 4 more after that :-D

I guarantee they were ALL talking about the girls! :roll:

The pictures of the car with two lug nuts installed also caught my eye. :-o
How do you affix the screen with the spikes to the karting tires?

The picture is taken when testfitting tires. The rima are 1986 Saab 900,
so i did not know if they´d fit to a 100%, therefor 2 lugnuts.
empty the air in the tire, then press the "metalthingy over the tire,
then re-preassure the tire = its like its glued to the tire afterwatrds.

made an complete overhaul of the kart with a 10hour garagetime without a break....
quite straining job.
but it had to be done anyways.
changes gearboxoil to ´76 10/40 racingoil.
welded a few minor cracks in the exhaust
found out that the exhaustvalve did not open at all... Humm, fixed it :-)
a 3mm thin steel rod that enables the valve to open via the gearbox/crankcase,
had come loose.
the carburator did not open more than 70% due to an fringed (spelling?) gaswire.
tideied up the electrical system
fitted the "icetires" to the tires.
made a new steeringrack with steeringlinkage & adjusted it more perfectly
a friend found a frozen lake 30kms away, so we loaded his minaquad & the
icekart on my racetransporter & off we went to try out the new settings:
The result was, 85-90mph in 5th gear with 12/18 gearing, but very very much
instability with nuts & bolts coming loose after every run, wheelspin in every
gear no matter how much throttle percentage.,
Later we found the rear axle to be NOT straight.
SO i need to get a new one... just 160dollars.
-
New rear axle fitted now :-) found a 40x5mm pipe for just 45dollars at the local Machine Shop.
Also remowed the batterypowered fuelpump + battery & alla electrics related to this.
& fitted an mechanical fuelpump from an Volvo B18 engine.
It now sits just in front od the rear axle and moves by an welded on "thing" on the axle.
A small ballbearing sits on the edge of the fuelpump to make it "float" easier.

If you consider this in favour of an batterypowered fuelpump, then this is so much better,
Also, it did not cost anything :-)
but what i did forget to mention was taht there will be a 0,2L fuelcatchtank just before the carburator with a returnline, so the carb wont be blown up by the fuelpreassure..
-
Just one question
This looks like it's mounted to the rear axle
So what happens when the rear axle isn't turning?
