Aluminum Body Steel

i want to build a go kart?
I want to build a 6 foot long miniature formula one vehicle. basically a go kart, but alot bigger and im thinking heavier. I'll probably use hollow steel beams as the chasis, and a form of either aluminum or steel sheet metal for the body work. I want it to go at least 40 mph, and i dont know if i should go with a go kart engine, a lawn mower engine, maybe even a weed wacker engine. any thoughts?
You understand at 40mph if anything happens you could die, right? All so at 40 mph you will need a large track to be able to drive your kart.
If you're going to go 40mph you're going to need to get good parts. You will need a real rear axil and front end. I would look into robbing parts of a golf cart or cutting parts out of a small car like a mg midget.
The frame will have to be steel and you will have to weld it. You will need a oxygen/acetylene or tig welder. You will need a larger motor than a weed whacker. I would guess around 20+ hp. I would look into using a vw bug engine.
I'm guessing this will end up costing around 3-4k. You will end up spending half on the metal and engine. The other half on the smaller things like seat,steering wheel, brake line, brake line fittings ,wire and so on.

One important thing in regards to exercising is that you a) start moving your body and b) that the "exercise" is for at least 45-60 minutes. Your body needs this "threshold" to benefit from the exercise, especially if you want to lose weight. Research has shown that exercise of around 30 minutes is good for your overall health, but that it is the bare minimum that you would give to your body. Compare it the oil your car engine needs to function properly. If you ever measured the oil in your engine you know that there is a minimum and a maximum marker. The names say it all, the minimum is need to keep your engine alive. It works the same way with your body's health.
Main categories of exercises:
Running:-
You must never make your first running experiences attempts at racing - either against other people or against yourself. You're not yet conditioned well enough to attempt racing. Unfortunately, the consequences can be disastruous if you try to be a road and trail racer right from the start even before you have taken the time to become properly trained.
For one, you could develop heart arrhythmia (note: this will probably be benign, but it can still be scary). You may also get pulled muscles or tear ligaments, which will could sit you on the sidelines for awhile and be very painful. You might also get severe shin splints, which are also very painful and could shorten your running career. You could also feel overly tired, become dizzy, or get dehydrated. Any of these ailments could get you so frustrated mentally at your "slow" pace that you keep quitting, which means you'll never improve

Bycyleing :-
Bike frames for instance keep on undergoing developments and alterations. From the usual steel, other types of material are now being used to create frames to lessen their weight while at the same time, keeping the bike sturdy. The modern materials that are now being used for the most recent models of bikes are aluminum, carbon fiber and titanium. Through them, light weight bikes were created.
Swimmimg :-
These are products that ensure that a swimming pool is working fine and that there is no obstruction in its smooth functioning. The value of swimming pool supplies therefore gets firmly established. It is for this very reason that there are several companies that make available to people the pool supplies. However, when it comes to choosing the most trusted name in the field of discount pool supplies then there is just one name that flashes through mind – that of Swimming Pool India.
Walking :-
More refined techniques of walking to lose weight include jogging, power walking, treadmill walking and running. The calories burned in each of these activities vary, but the core concept that works for everyone here is: if you do it regularly, you will lose weight!At first, start slow and walk for ten minutes of so at a normal pace. You can actually hurt yourself by walking if you are real out of shape! Your knees and feet may hurt a bit at first - if that happens, take a day off. You don't want to discourage yourself at the outse
Handball :-
Okay, I'm not just putting this in here because my husband plays handball (and very well, I might add). Similar to racquetball (but without the racquet), the side-to-side sprints will get your heart rate up as well as strengthen your legs. The learning curve is high, so plan on practicing a lot before you can even hit that little ball. A 145-lb person burns over 400 calories in 30 minutes.
