Re: Super Kart Wing
http://www.andersonkarts.com/ that's the British link, I tried the US one and it says it's under construction but I'm sure someone at 250superkarts.com or www.superkartsusa.com will be able to help you.

Re: Super Kart Wing
very very difficult to find and expensive. A complete superkart body can be bought though. I think its about 11-$1200.00 Wing comes with it. But he will not sperate.

Re: Super Kart Wing
Call Ed Shampine of New Concepts. He makes a copy of the Anderson stuff. Cheaper than anyone else and high quality. He will sell individual pieces. Still don't know why anyone would want to hang one of those parachutes on their kart though. I took mine off my Anderson and Zips and haven't looked back.

The Anderson stuff isn't on his website but he has it. Call Ed at 315-699-5565. Still expensive but a LOT cheaper than all others.If you';re running long track, your better off w/ his "Radical I" sit-up enduro bodies. Even on a Superkartt. WAAAY more aerodynamic than the Euro junk. |

Re: Super Kart Wing
Don'tagreen with the "Euro junk". I haven't seen many Superkarts made here in the US. Even the sprint chassis are most made in Europe, specially in Europe, and 2 cycle engines too. If they are junk I wonder why you use Parillas, Rotax,etc. Other than that I only know of Japanese "junk" engines: Honda,

Re: Super Kart Wing
Gibson 250. Made in Charlotte, NC. Best superkart chassis ever made. If you prefer "sit-up" FE karts, try P1 (made in Calif), Matrix Concepts (also made in Cali), Nemesis (made in Texas), or AES Kart (also made in Texas). All are fine chassis of European quality and made here. At current exchange rates, a little easier on the wallet as well. When I say European bodywork is junk, i'm not tlaking about build quality. As far as I know the only wind tunneled European Superkart bodywork is the F1 and the Zip Eagle II. Watch Daytona which is the true aero test. Kenny Deutsch's Anderson with the Newe Concepts "Sit-up enduro" bodywork walks the traditional FE karts everytime.
BTW: Best (fastest) Superkart engines right now are probably the FPE (French), VM (Czech) or the BRC (Canadian). http://freewebs.com/centslessracing |

Re: Super Kart Wing
So where is France in, or Czech? Which one of those chassis is on top of any of the FIA/CIK World championships where the best drivers in the world compete? I have seen the 250 superkarts in Jerez (Spain, an homologated F1 track, they raced several years there, and one of the best bike tracks in the world) and I don't think the bodywork was junk there. Best chassis for sprint classes including shifters (not counting 250 superkarts) are made in Italy, Maranello, Birel, Tonikart, etc,and I promise you the hardest competition to win in the world is probably a National or an open Italian championship. do you think the bodywork of a Ferrari or a Lambo, or a Maseratti is junk too? I still disagree. I admit that a lay down will be more aerodinamic at a fast track with long straights, but that doesn't mean it is gonna be faster at a roadcourse with a number of tight turns. I might be wrong too, but I never saw a Gibson racing oversees at the f1 tracks and beating Andersons or other top chassis. Where I really agree is that the european chassis are overpriced, no question about that, and that you could build here chassis as good as over there, but for that you need to be on the msot importan competitions in the world to develop that chassis to their best performance and have the best drivers too driving them. With that said I still prefer to race in the US and I love what you do here, sometimes just being creative and working on your garage and your backyard. I don't really miss the FIA/CIK, believe me.
