I bought a mini horse last year..he is broke to a cart but hasn’t been drove in a year. I bought a cart and harness this weekend. I had been driving him off and on. I hooked up the harness and drove him for a while, then I hooked up the cart and walked beside it for a bit. I got on and he was fine for a while. It was like the cart would bump him when we started and stopped and also when we went up the ditch(it wasn’t deep) well the cart spooked him and he took off. I was wondering what would help the cart stay steady. I think I. Had the traces tight enough. He doesn’t wear breeches..do I need them? This is my first time driving a cart!

Im 14 but know a great deal about mowers so dont think im just some stupid kid… im building a racing lawnmower out of a murray mower frame … im scrapping the tecumsea on board and i have a 12 hp b&s i/c with the govenor removed… i used the one piece flo jet carb on it instead of the factory lmt so i could have a bigger barral with and have a cold air intake system i reversed the stacker pully and will put a 3 inch pully on the tranny. I welded a bracked icut off of a gocart for throttle lever mounting and strait piped the engine with metal pipe… im working on rewiring it so i wont have any traces of an interlock system. I could use any ideas pics diagrams or any other mods … thanks
