Off road go karts are becoming increasingly more popular as they provide a higher degree of safety and are usually designed to carry 2 to 4 passengers. Most people when they think of a go kart picture a vehicle very low to the ground that races on an oval asphalt track with room for only one rider. This is typical but there is another breed of go karts used on the off road. These vehicles actually have much higher ground clearance for traveling over rough terrain. They also are equipped usually with a safety cage and in some cases an additional roll bar. The tires are much different as they are designed to travel over very rugged ground and are much larger and beefier than a street go kart tire. Models will typically come in 2 or 4 wheel drive. You will find that off road go karts will range in engine size as well, from 90cc all the way up to 1100cc. In addition you will see that several models also are equipped with a wench in the event you get in a situation where you need to be towed out of a tight spot. Several models also come with reverse which can come in handy when there is no way out but to back up.
Off road go karts are designed for children and adults alike and make for a great experience for those who love the outdoors and enjoy motor sport vehicles. Keep in mind that unlike an atv which generally carries only one passenger, you can have a lot of fun with one go kart and carry up to 4 and sometimes even 6 passengers.
Remember when driving an off road go kart to protect yourself by wearing an approved helmet for safety. in case of a severe accident this could save your life.
