The Datware #98 and #99 karts are owned and prepared by Michael Dickinson of Dickinson
Championship Motorsports. The #98 kart chassis is a Margay Lynx with oval style body work.
The #99 kart chassis is a Bandit Intimidator. The motors are
Briggs & Stratton 5hp, IKF/WKA stock built by Mitch Bragg of
Performance Unlimited/Bandit
Karts, Winchester VA. Actually a stock Briggs motor gets
10.5hp with methanol alcohol and a few modification. The clutches are Hortsman MDC-400 and the tires
are Bridgestone.
The karts' speed is anywhere from 45 MPH to 60 MPH depending on the
track. On the 1/8 mile dirt oval at I76 Speedway in Ft Morgan,
CO the kart averages 45 MPH. Where as, at the beautiful 1/5 mile
asphalt oval in Dodge City, KS the karts are in the 50 MPH to 60 MPH
range. Not bad for 10.5hp! Back to my
main racing page. |
