Yeah...what he said...how much and what are the specifics on it? Does our builder order it from USAC or do we and then give it to them to build?

the only engine builder you want to deal with on the animal motor is steve baker at baker racing engines all the others dont know all the ins and outs of this motor.plus he wont overcharge like the others

There are several builders that have been building the Animal for WKA for many many years. Steve Baker, Comet Kart Sales and Ray Garcia at Xcellerater in Tampa has also been building them for a long time too. Pretty much everyone is selling for about $1250, with the exception of A-main who is about $1400. There are options out there, but if you trust a builder that is who you should go with.
Back to the original question...anyone know the details on this discounted deal with USAC?

Stick with a builder you trust, as for me, I’m sticking with Ziggy’s.

Ziggy is a fine man. He and Cheryl are two of the best people you could ever get to know.
Thanks, Mike

Agreed! You all should come down South and try it at the Tampa's "superspeedway" track. My driver was ecstatic! We only have two cars right now, but we're hoping for more. (Come on, Tampa members! Didn't it look and sound awesome?!) Check out the video of our first Tampa Junior Animal main. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sx9s9gAQgeo
