Default Corvette Go Cart

I just purchased a Castrol GTX Go-Cart C4 Corvette Sunday. It has a 3.5 HP Briggs and Stratton in it. Needs a couple of things like a muffler the wrong muffler is on it and it has no brakes. It runs good and it peppy for what it is. I am interested in finding any information about it at all. I googled it and didn't find much. It was made or distributed by Motorsports Promotions Inc. in Phoenix, Az. Oh and any idea on what it is worth. Thanks Guys

What year did this engine become an option in the C4's?

Probably worth more than a real C4.

Brake efficiency is in direct correlation to the amount of rubber on the bottom of your shoes. Our club has 2 of these. A C3 and a C4. They run but we mostly just display them at shows and let kids get their pictures taken in them. I would think any typical B&S muffler would work fine and as I recall, the brakes are just a pedal and shaft that puts pressure on a rear tire.
