Mario Fernandes sent us this pic all the way from the small village of Eixos in the north of Portugal. He describes it as a very primitive kart, the "EixosZund01", based on Zundapp 50cc motorcycle power. It was originally created by 71 year old Albano Jose for an 8 year old boy and has gone through several stages of design improvement evolution over the years including metal bearings and rubber tires (but no brakes!!).

Mario adds the following:
"You can see our kart racing competition at http://eurosport.ifrance.com/ases (Portuguese version only for now). Congratulations on your site. it is very good."
