A good friend of mine internationally races go-karts. Don't ask me what type of kart he has because I have no ****ing idea, but it's something italian and the motor he has in it apparently pulls 40+ hp. Not a shifter kart, but a direct drive. Thing is blindingly quick.

this is old, but it bugged me.

he most likely ran a parilla motor. and no clutch kart (direct drive) is blindingly fast. they have absolutly no bottom end.
