I am not sure what year this funny car body represents. I used to own a 1988 Trans Am that appears close enough so for the purpose of giving this car a year lets assume it a '88 model. All I know about this go cart is what I have heard. The story is that these go carts were available for purchase and through contests. The story about this particular car is that it was purchased in the 80's at Seattle International Raceway. There was supposedly some promotional gig going on at the time with Snake Racing. Anyway, this thing is relatively well preserved. The previous owner has added some stickers that were not originally on the cart body. If you happen to have one like this or any original photo's I would be interested in hearing from you. Enjoy!!
These two shots are at a local Pontiac car club show. The kids were 8 and 10 at the time and had a blast using a whole bottle of wax on the go cart that day. They were given a lot of attention as lots of people were curious about this little car. You should open up the file and zoom in on the little car show sign that the kids made for this. Cute!!
Here is the real car in action. This picture was found at the Don Prudhomme Snake Racing site.
