Third brake is cake. I can do that at our Arcadia meets, provided we have enough lighting and it's not that cold lol.

I'll be installing a custom short shifter this weekend too. In the process of scouting a location with a flat/shady area...

Time to sell my kartboy!

@BRZtoni what brackets did you end up using? Are they centered to the steering wheel? even stock, the seat is to the left a little bit.
