EcoKart - An Electric GoKart

Hey, there!

We're Team Motorheads from B.M.S. Institute of Technology, Bangalore. We're building an awesome electric powered gokart for a national level competition (Eco Kart), and are a little short on funds because we're.. well, college students.

This isn't our first time building a gokart. In fact, we've built two of them before this, and we're sure that this gokart will be our best yet. We've got some great ideas to implement on this project of ours, including an adjustable steering system, tyre pressure monitoring system, and an easy way to change gear ratios to make the gokart suitable to all tracks. Our gokart is also super safe because we're incorporating impact absorbing roller-bumpers in our design, and adding a 5-point racing harness for the driver (you can only find them in supercars).

So why should you give us your hard earned money?
Because we believe that electricity is the future, and if we humans don't slowly start reducing our dependence on fossil fuels, we're going to suffer. This project of ours is one step closer to this dream of a sustainable, and pollution free future.

The entire design and rendering of the gokart has been done by college students, and we plan to build the entire thing by ourselves on campus. Proof of what we've built before can be found below, so you know we're serious about our work.

Thank you for your valuable time, and every contribution helps us, no matter how small.

Signing off, Team Motorheads!
