The LOLrioKart

LOLrioKart | equals zero: "The plan is to motorize a found shopping cart in an overly dramatic fashion. For now, the rear axle will be solid, for wheel-skidding fun, and it will have a feature not found on too many quick-build go-karts - mechanical front braking. I decided to take the extra step of integrating mechanical braking into the front wheels since they could be used to perform tricks that require weight shifting under power - something which a simple rear axle sprocket brake cannot provide."
