They certainly look like lots of fun to drive - very chuckable and plenty of power. Sound like 1000cc four cyl?

Look up "kart cross" and you'll find out a little.  Looks like mostly a French thing and they seem to use 600cc motorcycle engines.  Looks like a lot of fun to me.

We have crosskarts in Scandinavia. P.Solbergs son is driving it etc. Good "cheap" feeder class.

 

But here its using single syl engines mostly it seems. Late in the video
