Looks like a blast!! I grew up with go-karts and mini bikes. I think this one is just a bit faster than my old 3.5 hp Briggs and Straton powered go-kart. I did build a mini bike with a large McCulloch chain saw engine with direct drive. The crankshaft was too short for a clutch. All go and no WOA!!

I try to go to Boshertown every time we come back over that way....A real blast..went there a lot when we lived in St Charles....my son and daughter loved it.
I got my start in the "go fast" thing the same way...if we could bolt a motor on it we tried it. Of course I didn't have a lot of know how and money but a couple of pieces of wood the wheels off my sisters doll buggy went a long way to put together something that had a motor on it.
I tried the 2 stroke off a lawnmower to power my bicycle....mounted it so it would put friction on the front tire....

My dads gas station was the old Zephyr (I think it is a ZX now) on Hwy 94 North right next to Boieng now. Spent many hours pumpin gas and yes, wipin windsheilds...FULL SERVICE! A thing of the past. I hit Boshertown frequently! Good memories! Must run in the blood....if it has an engine I WANT IT! The 351 that we took out of my Cobra is going to be put into the boys' 93 Mustang. Nut didn't fall to far from the tree!!
