New member. 'Ship inspired by first go-cart

[nola000]

Hello. South Louisiana checking in.

Grew up po' so never had a go-cart, mini-bike, etc. Always envied my friends/family that did.

Just purchased a used Brister Fire F2-265E and was lurking hard on this site to gather some info so I figured I'd join. Ill post pictures when I can.

Welcome brother. This place is full of people in their childhood, reliving their childhood, or getting the childhood they never had.

Forgot to mention. This is a Xmas gift for my kids (7 & 8, boy & girl), not for me.

Well...maybe a little for me.

It’s ok to admit you want one here. We’re all friends with the same wishes or same childhood story. I too was born with a broken plastic spoon in my mouth. But at 57 am living the dream! Get one for yourself and ride with the kids! Welcome!

I envied those kids that had a spoon. Our homestead...

Was that taken in Oklahoma dust bowl when you were headed west behind a pair of mules?

 

[Denny]

Yes it was. I can tell.
we were so poor that we had to spell it
P O U R, cause we couldn’t afford 2 Os and U’s were cheaper because nobody wanted em.

mules?

Don't know what a Brister Fire F2- 265 E is, and I'm not sure anybody else does. But we are glad to have you. Welcome aboard. Especially if its for the kids. And you can confess that you want to drive it as well. We've all come clean here and admitted to our addiction. Post some pictures so we know what you are talking about. Sure hope it runs, Christmas is getting really close.

Looks like base model smart car!

If smart cars are so smart, why do you look so stupid driving them?
