Hi Pred
Love those Shelsley special type hill climbers - your builds looking great.
I too decided to build another kart based on Nigel Davenport's Spider.
I'm say 30% through the build but my first job was to build the V twin engine.
I used bits of plywood : aluminium offcuts : plastic waste fittings : Asda rolling pins and yoghurt pots together with bits and pieces laying about the garage (spark pugs and leads etc. )
one or two photos attached. The barrels are ali and plywood discs with a long through bolts. (wish I'd thought of putting the engine there !! )

Thanks Andy for organising a brilliant day - first time out - front suspension issues - but really enjoyed it

Hi all
Yes everything has been so helpful, all the comments and possible solutions.
I'll be looking at increasing the caster angle, toe-in" etc. next job.

Hello all again
That's really interesting. I have done a bit of a measure and I've got about 4 deg of caster (photo) my wheels are straight.
So this is obviously something to work on.
Thank you all again for the input.
regards
Bri
