Razor Ground Force Elite-Electric Go-Kart for Ages 13+, Up to 14 MPH, Up to 40 Minutes of Continuous Use, 350-watt Chain-Driven Motor, Forward/Reverse Drive Switch, 36V Rechargeable Battery,Black, Large

Good:1. fantastic fun2. accelerate very well3. handling around turns is best attribute. wheels are sticky on concrete/asphalt which creates very sharp turning radius.drifting is not really as advertised but i think that is a good thing. wheels are not made for dirt/grass.4. sits very low to ground which allows for greater safety5. surpsisingly very sturdy frame. My kids have used as bumper cars, ran over rocks and ran into other things and karts are still intact.Bad:1. maintenance. I purchased 3 karts 1.5 years ago for background. a. where front Axle attaches to each front wheel there are screws.if u make sharp turns at moderate use than expect to change these out fairly often so have a few extra or make sure to tighten prior to every use. I tighten down after every ride but still have had fall off. Harder to find on ground than I thought. To help I put down below what size screws I use. b. chain tensioner and chain. I have replaced the chain tensioner once each on 2 karts. Have not replaced chain as of yet, but I keep 2 on hand just in case. Both parts make sure to buy from razor website. I put part numbers for both down below. Also, if u do need to replace either here is a YouTube channel that is awesome at explaining how. All Out Bikes.Overall the kart is 5/5 for use and performance. I drive them myself even though I dont fit well. Still are fun to ride. Even though there is some maintenance involved, what vehicle doesn't. They are safe for a child. Battery life is adequate. Assembly is straightforward and steering wheel is easy to tighten.Screw size: #10-32 3/4inchPart numbers on razor:Chain: W25173804012Chain tensioner: W25173804079

For 2 years I have been raking leafs, pulling weeds, and pet sitting to earn enough money to get a go kart which I have been wanting for along time. When I finally got enough money to get it I browsed the internet and stumbled across this go kart. It looked very cool and very fun, but little did I know that it was a piece of crap. I was so exited to drive it that I could barely sleep. When I first drove it every thing seemed fine, but the second time I drove it the right wheel steering arm bolts came off and I lost total control of the steering as you can see in the attached pictures, it put me to a stop. I was lucky enough to find the bolts after they fell off because If I didn’t I wouldn’t be able to ride it. I tried to put it on again and then while I was driving it it fell off again. I had to tighten it before every ride, it is still loose. The reverse doesn’t work either. After that the chain fell off, I tried to put it back on but it is just too difficult. In conclusion driving at 15 mph, losing the front steering arm poses a huge safety risk to the driver. I do not recommend this go kart.

***Update after 2 months: still willing to give this 5 stars but with a catch. I had to replace one of the steering linkage screws with a bolt and ny-lock nut (I believe Razor already has a fix/upgrade for this). I also had the chain fall off one time, I removed a link from it, and it never happened again. The problem is that the chain stretches to the point that the tensioner can’t maintain tension on it… hence shortening the chain by one link after it wore in solved the issue. Given that my kids and even some of the neighborhood kids love this thing, and they ride it hard almost daily, I can live with the two matters I mentioned above. I would still recommend it, and am even debating buying another one for one of the other kids.Original review: I bought this for my son, he absolutely loves it. So far it has been great and we have not experienced any of the issues that other reviewers have mentioned. The build quality is good. It feels solid, steering is responsive, and run time is good. The supplied battery/charger combo do require over night charge if you completely drain the battery, but other than that overall I think this was an excellent purchase. At the time of this purchase, Amazon was offering 5 months no interest which really sweetened the deal.

Disliked the size , to small. Bought this for my 14yr old grandson & it's to small.

The right axle bolt which connects the wheel to the cart came flying off the second time taking the cart out for a very short ride. It was dangerous and couldn't be steered. I purchased it right before any reviews posted. I now see 1 review and that person had the same issue. Called Razor and they said its the first they have heard of this issue. Only 3 reviews on Razor and one says chain keeps falling off. Worried this product is just a defective design. Have 2 other razor ride on carts for years and no issues. Torn between returning or exchanging for a new cart.

Nice little go kart. Very quick and handles exceptionally well and out preforms other karts I've ridden at a much better price point. The deck flexes which allows really sharp turns. I haven't had any of the described issues in the other reviews yet, chain and steering bolts still seem tight after several hours of riding.

I bought the Ground Force Elite for our godson's 13th birthday. He's a little taller, but the size and speed were a perfect fit for him. He really loves taking corners with the seat and steering being so low to the ground. And having a throttle and brake pedal are really fun, makes it feel like he is in a real go cart.

Not worth it. I called razor for help and they claimed they were sending a part for me to fix it. Outrageous as I am not a mechanic and never sent the part. Don’t waste the money
