The world's fastest kart put up for sale for $15,000 (5 photos)
A kart with two jet engines was put up for sale in the United States, which in 2021 was included in the Guinness Book of Records as the world's fastest vehicle of this type.
The record was set in October 2021 and, according to the seller, has not yet been broken. In the minimalistic “supercar” its creator was able to accelerate to a speed of 184.41 km/h.
The seller does not specify the technical characteristics of the card, although the engine model used is known - Kingtech k450g4. They are mounted on a specially designed suspension, which in turn is attached to the frame underlying the kart structure. The rocket car is also equipped with several aerodynamic fairings and additional instruments. According to some reports, it took about a year and a half to create the map and prepare for the record.
For the buyer of an unusual vehicle, the seller will also offer a two-wheeled scooter, also prepared for installation of the same jet engines. Its cost is not advertised.
