    Abstract: The engine mount system for racing karts includes two separate spaced mounts, each of which is secured on two spaced support rails of the kart's chassis frame. Each of the mounts includes arcuate portions in a lower surface thereof which are configured to fit around a portion of the spaced rails. Retainer portions connect to a bottom surface of each mount and secure the mounts to the rails. One mount includes two upright connecting members which extend upwardly from an upper surface of a base portion of the mount, the connecting members being offset somewhat from the centerline of the mount. The other mount includes a U-shaped connecting member which extends from an upper surface of the base portion of the mount, the U-shaped member also being offset from the centerline of the base portion. The U-shaped member and the spaced connecting members both include openings therethrough which permit connection of those members to the engine.
