Give Sidetracked a call and ask to talk to Barry or Mark Nauman - tell them you're a RoboWars competitor.

They upgraded all the 9Hp Honda motors on their karts to electric start a while back and Barry said they had quite a few of the old pull-start engines to sell. They would have a few miles on them I would imagine, but he said they still ran well and they would go for a good price.

Not 2-strokes though, but 9Hp should be enough to motivate you along reasonably well.. they might even have clutches with them.

a good 250cc 2-stroke would be pretty insane on a kart. Thats super-kart type stuff with 200km/hr+ easily achieveable (with gears). Sprint Karts that do 100-150 run a 100cc motor.
