"Hi, my name is Tommy and I am speaking for Expert Village. We are going to talk about how the karts come today. This is basically a junior kart, they come in a box. Most of the karts are made in Italy and when you get them, like the front hubs are on, the rear axle is installed, the brakes are installed but you have to install like the, all the steering shafts, align all the front end, and all the front bumper clips, the side clips and everything. They come with no seats installed or anything, no motors installed. Most of the time your kart shop will install all of the equipment on the karts themselves. If you look at this kart here, its basically ready to go, except for the seat and the sticker kits. The sticker kits you have to put on still. But they all come in a box, most, most the karts are made in Italy, there's a couple of karts that are still made here in the United States. And then there is different motor packages you can put on different karts. You have to mount the tires on them and there is different kinds of wheels and tires."
