If you want a real answer about if it's safe or not? Post some drawings of what you plan to build... tell us what fasteners you plan to use... how do you plan to build the metal frame?? can you weld? How fast do you plan to go?

it really depends on how you build it, you can put perfectly designed go kart kit together and it wont be safe if you dont do it right.

You asked us if we think this will be safe?
It's impossible to tell you if we think it's safe (or not) if you don't show us any plans for structural design...

I'm curious, how old are you?
