'It's different from any other motor sport. It feels bigger and faster than a go-kart and you enjoy it more because you built it.'
The 4th annual Cyclekart Grand Prix runs June 8th at Elmhirst's Resort in Keene, Ont. On this edition of Out & About Caley Bedore learns more about the growing sport and the upcoming event.“A cyclekart is something between a soapbox racer and a go-kart,” organizer and cyclekart enthusiast Andrew Roudny said.
Roudny said he built his kart, dubbed The Vulture, about 10 years ago, modelled after the German Silver Arrow racecars. Richard Poxon is now a member of that community, though he is no stranger to the racetrack. He used to race Formula Fords in the U.K. and was part of the Honda Series in Canada. He races with two other club members, John Tate and David Wells, noting Wells was the mechanic behind the kart designs.
