we purchased three of these drift go-karts for my kids, thinking they’d be a thrilling gift and a fun investment. However, all three have had the same frustrating issue right out of the gate: the back tires warps almost immediately with use, even though my kids weigh under 80 lbs. At first, the warranty covered replacement tires for two of the carts, but, to our disappointment, even those replacements started to fail almost right away.
We really hoped that spending over $1,000 per cart would mean a durable product, but it's been a constant headache. The tires keep warping within hours of use, and the experience has been incredibly disappointing. My husband saved for three years to buy these go-karts for the kids, and it was his one big wish to give them something really special. Sadly, these carts have not lived up to expectations, and I can’t help but feel like all his hard work has gone to waste.
It’s heartbreaking because all he wanted was to see our kids happy and not let them down—but these go-karts have done just that. I can’t recommend these to anyone, especially when they fail so quickly, and all you're left with is frustration and regret.
Really upset we had to leave a bad review more upset at the situation of it all. they have maybe used the carts a handful of times. and at this point we don't know if they are even safe to keep riding or what to do from this point going forward. just a loss and lesson learned I suppose. this is not a purchase we just went into blindly we researched and thought we made a good decision. The absolute worst part is my husband in the end still feels like he lets down the kids promising go karts for years and then when he finally got them this is what happened.
The steering rod i ordered had no tie rod ends and the rod was a completely different size of thread so couldnt even use the old ones. $200 american just wasted.
