This pedal car can carry four weapons – two across the front and two more in the back – and a supply of darts to avoid running out of ammo in a fight.

Think about it for the Independence Day bottle rocket and roman candle fights.

Or this...

Personally,  I'd prefer something more along the lines of this (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chenowth_Advanced_Light_Strike_Vehicle)...

Just an FYI; When you build a go cart with a motorcycle engine, don't use turf saver tires from a lawn tractor. They have a tendency to come apart violently somewhere around 50-60 mph.

Upgrade all the springs to throw heavier objects, and replace them all with drag-stabilized capacitors the same size as a NERF dart, with two forward facing prongs that'll short out on a human body.
