Abstract
A go-kart, also written as go-cart (often referred to as simply a kart), is a type of open wheel car. Go-karts come in all shapes and forms, from motorless models to high-powered racing machines. Some as Superkarts, are able to beat racing cars or motorcycles on long circuits. Conventional transmissions allow for the selection of discrete gear ratios, thus limiting the engine to providing maximum power or efficiency for limited ranges of output speed. Because of the engine is forced to modulate its speed to provide continuously variable output from the transmission to the load, it operates much of the time in low power and low efficiency regimes. A continuously variable transmission (CVT) is a type of transmission, however, that allows variable ratio change within a finite range, thereby allowing the engine to continuously operate in its most efficient or highest performance range, while the transmission provides a continuously variable output to the load. The development of modern CVTs has generally focused on friction driven devices, such as those commonly used in off-road recreational vehicles, and recently in some automobiles.
