Darrell, I'd be competing in something similar to that pictured, just with a different type of engine. If anything, the gearbox karts are worse because they don't have to have even the bodywork that the 100's and Rotaxes have, and as Darrell says they are as quick as bikes.
If other posters feel it would be unsafe, I respect and understand that but I did think it was important to post a pic to make sure we are all discussing the same thing. I personally would be happy to compete somewhere that the MSA approves as a kart venue although obviously I would take responsibility and make the final decision myself. If there are no hills with tyre barriers where there's likely to be an off and none with tarmac suitable for something with a couple of cm of ground clearance then it's probably time to investigate sprints or similar.
