This go kart project is the largest creative fabrication project I have taken on to date. The objective of the project was to design and fabricate a grip driving go kart to ASN Karting Canada safety regulations so that the vehicle could complete in any karting event in Canada. With the guidance from Mr. Bartz, the metal and small engines instructor in the BCIT TTED program, myself and a close friend completed this kart to ASN safety regulations over approximately 450 man hours of work. This project required mostly custom fabrication to create the steering and braking systems. Jigs for the chassis and rear axel mounts were provided to us by Mr. Bartz. This project was a great success to me a brings me an immense amount of joy and pride every time I get the chance to take it out on the race track.
