sorry for the late reply fella i cant complain i upgraded from my old 03 tonykart
the o5 is lower at the front and lighter
just a bit of a pain as the max's need a lot of tinkering before a blast ie
power valve need cleaning before a blast
my bro reckons that his 250 billand is better than the max as these dont bog down and are wicked powering through corners were as my max used to bog a bit till the power valve kicked in
i had a go on my mates 05 top kart on friday as were we in lydd by dover
that was a good kart but i couldnt kick it into the turns like my one
