Yup, we sure did. I remember all our mini bikes, go-carts, my brother and sister made.
Our first real motorized go-cart we were so excited to build, but when it was almost done we needed a $20.00 part from the lawn mower shop but nobody could come up with the money, (You can only mow so many lawns at $3.00 a pop) So I mounted the shaft straight on the rear tire so when you started it, it would take off. The only bad part was it was turning it backwards.
I had the ten speed break handles on it as my gas pedal. We were so excited we drove it all day backwords.
Man, the good ol' days.
