Just for your info, here's a link (also tied up with Nurburgring) to a pic of a go-kart with a GSXR1000 engine!

[stevenford_uk]

thats got the old gsxr 1100 motor in it, an R1 kart will be lots quicker than that.
there is a decent fireblade kart goin round and there is a new gsxr 1000 kart which is the daddy!
i want to beat all of them!
