GO-Kart for the Street
 

Well in my opinion I Think the Lotus 340R is the Closest you can get to have the "Go-Kart" experience in terms of handling and agility for the street.

It may be not pretty as it resembles an insect , but is shure good fun.

I don't recall another car that can do this , besides a Super 7 perhaps.

If someone has already posted this, sorry in advance.

in the U.K. there are thousonds of "Go-carts" for the public road :-)

the tiger racing zr 100wr
its really fast
0-60 2.9 sec
completly road legal
tiff drove it on top gear

why has everyone missed the classic best fun car in the world.............MINI!!! :D :D :D :D

yeah, but the mini, dont feel as racing bread for some reason, the lotus is built to move.

yeah a tuned mini is the best fun car in the world cho mate, trust me! i might put up a poll comparing the two cars n i bet the mini wins! hehehe 0X lol :mrgreen:

Damn i missed this thread, as Squeek said it has to be the mini, ultimate Go-cart no arguements co i'll just win :lol: - not that i'm biased or anything, see sig \/ \/ \/ \/ :P

the mini would certainly be much more stylish to get around in than the aluminum lotus :lol: :lol:

This is the closest you can get....

The 340R is beyond sweet though...

Unfortuantely, in the US, either you buy a kit-car, or you buy a the new Lotus Elise (basically the S2). I've got an order down...

For the Elise? :twisted:

Yeah. First batch car. I said I will only buy it if it comes in the first batch, since I want it for the summer.

Here in the states we don't get those wicked cars so you should consider you guys being lucky...i'd love to own a Westfield but the cops just wouldnt understand

I would love to have one of those.Neat little things that's for sure.

I am 10000000% with him.. The mini respons is great.. and as said some modifications to the car already good suspension and some slick tires that thing will stick to the grown like glue..

The Radical is a Go-Kart too.. only bigger.. :D.. I saw it in action and I can tell you it sounded great with that 205Hp bike engine rev to 11,000 rpm.

I would love to have a mini as my first car.I have seen some up here for $8000
or around that price and because they have low hp that means low insurance. :P

We do get the Elise though just not the 340R and you can get a Noble that's pretty close. And you can find an old mini or buy a new one.

We are getting(dont have it yet) the Elise which costs $40,000 (btw 340R was a limited edition car)...yea i think ill just buy a go kart and take it to the track

The new Mini is pretty good though. And I think the Noble is one of the best cars in the world and now the new one is damn sexy.

The Aerial Atom is way fuckin cool with the Honda motor.

The new mini dosnt seem to have that absoulute weightless feel obviously because its heavier, But a original Cooper S is a little goer but it would get toasted by these
