A 'go-cart' (or 'go-kart') is a small, open-wheeled vehicle used for racing or recreational driving. It's a simplified version of a race car, often without suspension or a differential. Think of it as the gateway drug to Formula 1. Unlike a regular car, go-carts are designed for speed and agility on a track. It's all about the thrill of the race! 🏎️💨
