We played around with a home made deuce bar (tow bar) the other day. Everyone should try this out, they are a hoot. I wonder what would happen if we had 4 bars with 5 karts in a row. As they say, watch this space.
Here are some photos with a video to follow soon.

From this brief first try at Bangalee we came to the following conclusions which may or may not be a load of old pony.
- They are fun. Even sitting in the back seat.
- Great for taking action video as the guy in the back has a hand free. Sort of.
- Acceleration is faster than a single kart.
- Top speed is similar to a single kart.
- The combination tacks and gybes more smoothly than a single although the gybe especially has to be wider.
If we had 5 in a row as shown in the Blokart promo image below, would the last kart be whipping around like a snakes tail?
