Top Looking Karts
Over the years dirt karts are looking better and better. Here are some top looking karts and I will tell you why they are so good in regard to design. This season I have seen some karts that have had a lot of time and effort put into them and they do look really professional.
----------------------------------------------
Kart 00
This kart is one on the best looking dirt karts around. The gold colour contrast the red stickers on the side pods and the fading to blacks adds a touch of class. Also not that you can see from this picture but his helmet also does the same thing in fades from gold with red stripes to black. Simple design but has been done very professionally and a lot of time has been put into his kart but it was all worthwhile as it is probably the best looking dirt kart around.
Kart SA2
This kart has a really nice look, the custom number two is a real standout also the way the helmet unifies with the red number two balances the karts design. Also not that you can seen in the small picture the sponsor on the side pod also has a red out line and the background matches that on the front NASA panel making the design blend well. Another top design.
Kart 5
Orange is a major feature in this design, the way the orange has been used around the number 5 and on the side pods helps to create a well balanced design. The only let down is his helmet as there is nothing blue on his kart but all in all a great design. The way the front nose cone blends in with the side pods and the front NASA panel is the prime feature of this karts design.
Kart 15
This design is simple but sometime simple can look very effective. The white helmet along with the white number and the white stripes down the driver suit add a sense of wholeness to the overall design. The red stickers on the side pods and front NASA panel unify along with the frame to balance the design. Overall a very simple look but does look very effective.
Kart 10
This design is very unique and looks very professional. I really like the way the drivers name has been place on the front NASA panel and then his surname on the back of his helmet. The helmet design is simple but does match his kart. The number 10 custom design also is a feature. The black out line around the number 10 really makes the number stand out also not that you can see in this picture but the front NASA panel actually changes colours as you look at if from different angles. A really simple but effective design. Also the back number plate is a feature again you can't see it in the photo but the black border around the number plate and the number really make it standout on the light lime green background.
Kart 11
One of the best overall designs I have ever seen in karting and that is hard to say but it is one of the best. The orange on the front NASA panel matches that of around the number. The blue of the NASA panel matches that of his suit and helmet. The black of his side pods matches that of his suit and the white stripe on his suit unifies the sponsors. Overall this kart has the professional look, I would pay top dollar for a simple yet really effective look like this. Not as much work has gone into this design when compared to the others but it looks just as good maybe even better. Hats off to who ever designed this kart well done. Also the fact that it is very simple sponsors get a great view on the side of his side pod. Well done!
Kart 17
This design is again unique which is an important aspect to a design it is a little over complicated as simple can sometime look better, but a lot of work has gone into this design and it can be seen as the whole side pods look as though they are airbrushed and the look very professional. The same colour scheme has been used all throughout the kart design and including on the helmet. A very professional looking kart, the only thing I don't like about this design is that his suit grey colour doesn't match anything on his kart, but overall I still would be happy with this kart design.
Kart 79
Orange and black is the major colour scheme in this design; orange has been used with in the lightning karts logo around the number 79 which is a custom number on the bottom of his helmet and on his chassis which helps to create a well balanced design. Nice simple design, well balanced.
Kart 10
With the colour scheme of red and black this kart is a stand out. The way his suit blends in with this helmet and kart is a standout an overall unified design. Simple but effective the focal point in this design is his number as it is the only thing yellow which makes easier for the lap scorers.
Kart 53
An overall nice dark colour schemed design. Colours have been balanced well which leads to an overall unique and unified design. I think the red on his suit is sort of a let down but this design will look fast (when it is clean). Just thought it was worth a mention.

If you have and photos of your kart feel free to post them and I will tell you what I think if you want.
