 Welcome! We are a Karting Club that invented and races extremely affordable 5hp, Single Wheel Drive "Gas stocker" karts for a Points championship every summer at Galletta's Greenhouse Karting Speedway and a Gas Stocker division at Oswego Speedway's Clay Kartway. We also record weekly dirt karting classes in the Oswego area and make them available on DVD! Join us racing by either building your own or renting one of our team backup karts. Or just watch in person, or by buying our DVDs. Please read on and learn more about our extremely affordable brand of highly competitive racing!
WHAT IS A GALLETTA'S GAS STOCKER KART?
 A Galletta's Go-Kart, AKA a Single-Wheel-Drive "Gas Stocker" racing kart is a revolutionary way of karting. Many people see a karting (or carting) race and think of exceedingly fast WKA-type methanol karts that cost thousands of dollars and can go 60-90MPH. Or they think of a couple hundred dollar "Yard Kart" which is designed specifically for kids to drive around a yard or dirt trail at 15-20MPH, and not for racing. But a Galletta's Gas Stocker is something completely different and unique. Almost a hybrid blend of the two - an affordable racing kart
(with a ban on typically expensive WKA-type racing parts) that can navigate slightly bumpier terrain than a methanol kart, run on gas, go 40- 50MPH, AND be set up for racing purposes. With all due respect, although
the WKA-type karts are fast, they have a LOT of money invested into such a small vehicle
and can be expensive to field a competitive one. It goes the same way in bigger
auto-racing classes too. Richer teams always have a leg up. But this isn't how we want to race. We want affordability AND fair competition
by making every single part affordable. Hence, we invented the Single-Wheel-Drive Gas Stocker. What is it? Here are some outlines: Galletta’s Karting Club's Class Engine Rules:
- Briggs & Stratton Flathead motor block. “New style” 1990s-and-up style preferred. Absolutely NO porting, shaving, or reinforcements are allowed to the block. No Galletta’s Team Karts have blocks altered and it is ILLEGAL in this class. - Briggs & Stratton Box Stock 1990s-and-up style carburetor and tank. Absolutely ZERO alterations to the carb are allowed. (Makes for a VERY even race.) NO RAPTOR CARBURETORS unless driver is over 250 lbs. and approved by all active drivers. - Rods should be: - (a) Briggs & Stratton Box-Stock rod with vinyl or billet dippers, OR (b) a Briggs & Stratton Raptor III Rod (for durability/engine safety) are allowed. Box-Stock oil dippers are banned due to durability issues. Billet rods are not illegal, but discouraged except for the heaviest drivers for a trial basis because of cost. - Air-Breathers: Briggs & Stratton Box stock air breathers preferred. Drilled air holes allowed. Racing breathers must be approved by all active Galletta's Karting Club members. - Cams must be: - (A) Briggs & Stratton Box stock for all drivers under
130 lbs. Valves/springs stock. - (B) Dyno 94-SS “hot stocker” cam is now, in 2008, allowed
for drivers over 130 lbs. (In 2007, it was allowed only as a handicap for drivers over 200lbs. or any driver racing against an OHV when we raced against them, as the motor block does not have to be altered, this is a “hot stocker” cam). Rules have been adjusted. - (C) Any racing cam MUST be what is considered a stock, hot stocker, or stock cheater cams ONLY. "Non-slapper" Cams. Your block cannot be reinforced, so if your cam requires it, it is ILLEGAL. - Briggs & Stratton box stock coil. No Galletta’s karts contain hot coils. - Briggs & Stratton box stock flywheel. No Galletta’s karts have 3-4hp flywheels. - Briggs & Stratton box stock crankshaft. Single or dual bearing allowed. Most of ours are standard, no bearings. We have no ruling for or against crankshaft types. - Briggs & Stratton box stock Piston. Pistons/rings should be box stock standard. Boring only allowed after excessive wear. (.10, .20. .30 are only allowed as the motor wears, as each motor has a life cycle. Premature boring is highly discouraged.) - Heads must start as a Briggs & Stratton box stock head, and… - A. 199-lbs.and-under with a box stock cam; shaved as far as you can go (See Matt for help). - B. 200-lbs.-and-over with a Dyno 94-SS cam; shaved, BUT degrees of head shaving may vary according to weight. Experimental rule adjustments are forthcoming. T.B.A. - All Raptor parts (except for Raptor III rods) and equivalent expensive after-market racing counterparts are illegal under Galletta’s rules. The engine rules are meant to be “box stock.”
Galletta’s Class Additional Rules: - SINGLE WHEEL DRIVE: Classic “Yard Kart” motor setup is preferred. This includes the motor mount on left-rear, single-wheel drive. Karts should be staggered to run clockwise (right-hand turns) on a dirt oval track. Live axles are not banned, but discouraged because they are unnecessary under Galletta’s Club “clockwise” right-turn rules. They are heavy, expensive, and unneeded. - Stock Yard Kart-type Clutches: Max-torque, Comet, or equivalent ‘yard kart’ style clutches. Costly racing clutches are illegal at every Galletta’s event!!! You want them? Race WKA or Champ class. - Fuel: All karts must run PUMP GAS. Galletta’s Team karts all use and highly recommend 93 Octane. No additional additives are allowed. Additives, unless approved by all the active Galletta's Karters in the event, are illegal and will be disqualified. - Tires: All tires MUST be slicks at both tracks that the Galletta's Gas Stockers run in: Galletta's Karting Speedway, and Oswego Kartway. Drive-wheel MUST be slick. Left side MUST be slick. Right side tires may be yard kart tires with light tread, but preferred slick. - Muffler/Header: Briggs & Stratton Box-Stock “Fun Power” type mufflers for all drivers 199lbs.-and-under. Racing Headers/Pipes allowed for drivers 200 lbs.-and-over. MUST HAVE A MUFFLER on the header/pipe. Header rule is subject to change based on all active Galletta's Kart Driver approval, but ALL MUST have mufflers.
- Weights: From 2000-2008, we did not have an official weight requirement,
though we experimented, we could not make an official rule because being
forced to race bigger motors at Oswego Kartway (and we tried to stay light
to compete).
In the past, the average driver weight was between 140-190 lbs., and the
karts were between 145-165 lbs., and we'd try to keep heavier drivers with
lighter karts and vice versa and hence it averages out fairly close. But with heavier drivers (mainly those over
200 lbs.), for the 2009 season we will institute special rules and at least a median
weight requirement and no longer race against bigger motors. Between 2007-08 we allowed heavier drivers headers and certain race cams,
and we've e
consider raptor carbs for drivers over 250 lbs., but since they are
expensive, we will decide against them. We are open to
active drivers voting rules in and out, and run with what the majority
decides. Discuss it with us anytime.
-Chassis/Frames: At Galletta's, we use (as explained above) a
single-wheel-drive setup that turn right (clockwise) on dirt oval kart
tracks. They don't sell pre-fabricated racing chassis like that; Another
oddity that makes us unique is that all of the karts in our class are
homemade, hand built (or rebuilt) chassis. We have no "cookie cutter"
frames in our class whatsoever, although some of our drivers have
pre-built frames, all are completely re-built for racing in our class.
It's a build-it-and-race-it type rule. We are open-wheel only, which
forces each driver to race cleaner to avoid accidents; no bump-and-grind
type racing in our class; you pass clean or you lose.
Rules are subject to change, and do so with
both a majority vote of active regular drivers and the
suggestion of track operators. More in our extended rules & racing etiquette section.

Motor types at Galletta's Karting Track and SWD 5hp Gas Stocker Event: - Any motor
type can race in their own class if they have enough karts with equal motors to support. However, at Galletta's Karting Speedway, we only have one regular motor class - the Briggs & Stratton 5hp Flathead Gas Stocker stated above. - All OHV (Over Head Valve) motors, or WKA-rules methanol motors are both illegal to run against Gas Stocker Flathead motors under Galletta’s Karting rules, though they may run their own division
on the same tracks (and do at Oswego
Kartway).
Regardless, we
occasionally encounter rich snobs online and at local tracks who race WKA-type methanol karts and look down upon us. We hear it all the time when they say, "They go the wrong way" or "But they're just yard karts!"
and (yes, we've seen and heard it) accusing us of being retarded. The reasons why are mostly due to disrespect and a lack of understanding about this class which we invented
and what we are trying to do. A grass roots racing division built
from scratch, our karts are purposefully set with rules to keep the karts affordable, safe, and highly competitive. In addition, with our "gas stocker" rules, we can get MANY more laps off one tank of gas than they can get with a tank of methanol. This means, like The Tortoise and the Hare, a WKA kart could win a sprint race any day, but a Gas Stocker would win a marathon every time.
  And for all of the extra cost of a WKA kart, watch us race on the same track as them, and with an unbiased opinion, tell us who gets the most competitive racing and the most speed out of their dollar? The answer will be obvious to all but the actual WKA-driver or their immediate friends and family. Our races are usually more competitive, can race 3-wide
far more often, can corner better because of our single-wheel-drive setup, and are
only around one second slower than most methanol karts on a small track such
as Oswego Kartway (except maybe the WKA Medium weight division).
 You
are talking hundreds, if not thousands of dollars cheaper, and just for a
little extra speed out of a kart. We aren't bashing the more expensive forms
of racing, but we are using some apologetics; in other words, defending our brand of racing with facts and evidence against those who do not understand what we do and look down upon us
(and we have seen and heard it countless times).
Especially when the veterans and inventors of the
Galletta's Kart Racing club have nearly 20 years of karting experience and a
huge win percentage on two tracks to prove their skills, including never
losing a points standings or championship on two tracks every single year.

Why all the hate playa's?
Why you don't want to institute rules to make your class more
competitive and allow 6.5hp OHV motors to run with you?
Galletta's HAS rules, as seen above,
and has ALWAYS had rules. However, from
1990-2004, our rules were even more easily defined before outside
groups started altering them. In that period, we had ONLY BOX STOCK
5 HORSEPOWER FLATHEAD ENGINES that ran on GASOLINE. ONLY. We also
experimented with weight, but we never stuck with it. We now have
new rules with a minimum weight. Why different now you ask? *Sigh*
Time for another history lesson:
As stated, once we are all box
stock gas 5hps. Then, in 2004-2005, a few guys
came along and invaded our track with 5.5hp OHV (and 6.5hp OHVs
pretending to be 5.5hps). On a trial basis, we allowed them, as it
meant 12-16 kart races instead of our usual 7-12. However, we noted that
nobody in a 5hp could compete with that extra 1.5hp (unless the
bigger motored karts broke, or made "rookie" mistakes that the
lighter and more
experienced 5hps could capitalize upon). To answer, we altered our
rules (majority vote of all active 5hp drivers) and allowed the
smaller 5hp motors to shave (or mill) their heads, which then
started a 1-upsmanship war between the two motor classes. To keep
our class affordable and stock, we stopped racing the two different
motors together, and invited the others back with 5hp-only and a
weight rule, or still race on our track in their own OHV class. Since we
held to our existing rules and requested that they race 5hp
flatheads only against us, they stopped racing at our track and
defiantly dubbed themselves, "The Outlaws."
However, there are a handful of
people who believe that a 6.5hp "Outlaw-type" motor and a 5hp
"Galletta-type" kart can compete together, simply because they both
turn right and aren't WKA. When Oswego Kartway opened in 2006 and we
started racing there, track officials have repeatedly tried to
change our karting club's rules via forcing us to race against the
bigger 6.5hps or not race at all. For short periods in 2006, 2007 and
2008, the engines appeared to be mildly equalized to the outside
observer. But it wasn't truly, as the too-much-horsepower" vs.
"too-light" over and over again. However, the 1-upmasnhip games resumed
AGAIN, and now neither
OHV or Flathead motor clubs are box stock as originally intended.
They are now all tweener engines somewhere between 'box stock' and
'racing.' A no-man's land where it is difficult to find newcomers to
join unless we help them set their motors up (which we do to anybody
who asks). Again... it was a fight between the two divisions, with one saying,
"The Galletta's karts are way too light!" and the other saying, "The
Outlaw karts have way too much horsepower!" In mid-2008, the decision was
made to split the classes after it was revealed by multiple sources that the "Outlaws"
were using "Animal" parts and fuel additives, which is utterly
overkill because the flatheads do not use Raptor parts (except for
the rod), and no additives. Weight or no weight, it was too much,
especially mixed with unsportsmanlike conduct such as post-race
mockery as added insult to injury. Though both sides agreed to this split, the Outlaw class
proceeded to mock the Galletta class, even when they raced in
separate races.
On one final occasion in 2008, we took a cue from
the WKA Jr. 1 and Jr. 2 classes at Oswego when we tried to mix the
classes under the condition that each class would race on the same
track at the same time, but two different point series and two different winners (OHV
Outlaw and Flathead Galletta's), . However, the Outlaws then voted
the Galletta's class out of even this compromise, and then resumed
their mocking of the Galletta's class in person and also (rather
cowardly so) as anonymous posters on the Oswego Kartway forums.
However, Oswego Kartway track
operators seem to again try to force the two motor types together
for 2009. Why? WKA doesn't allow
flatheads (Raptors) to race OHVs (Animals), so why Oswego Kartway
does is irrational and illogical. We've tried it in 2004, 2005,
2006, 2007, and 2008, and it didn't work once, so why still try?
Because the two classes got comparable time trial times and there
aren't enough "Outlaws" to make the minimum? Again, it is heavy and
powerful vs. light and quick. On the same track, they don't mix
fairly, and one side always has the 1-up. The same tired old
argument again and again. "Too light" vs. "Too much horsepower."
Because Matt wins too much and he's one of the lightest guys? Well,
the minimum weight rule should solve that, right? It's also highly illogical and hypocritical that now the same track
is making "box stock" clone motor classes when the same officials
forced us to stray from our original box stock rules by forcing us
to race bigger motors!
So, in fairness, we'll call it
as we see it: OK, playas... we'll race against 6.5hps Outlaws the
same day that we see WKA Champs race WKA Medium and/or Heavy
flat-karts all race together. Or "Opens" vs. WKA Champs. Or Jr. 1,
Jr. 2. and Jr. Champs all run the same time. Or, when we see no
other 1-3 kart classes out there. Otherwise, it is what it is...
discrimination against our karting league, which has brought 6-12
paying customer karters to your track every single week since 2006.
Aww... am I hatin' on you guys? Or is it just that the truth hurts?
The only mistake that we ever did was to allow bigger motors to race
with us. It stops now.
The history lesson is ended,
and as a final solution, all active
Galletta's drivers have elected to solidify and stick to our rules as seen above.
In short, it is: 1-WD, Pump gas only, Raptor rods, shaved heads,
100% Box Stock 90s-style carbs, and certain pre-approved Dyno Cams.
In addition, for 2009, we will have a minimum weight rule (the best
medium weight between all driver/kart combos will be the absolute
minimum weight allowed, and any below it will result in a
disqualification). We planned to institute one in 2007 and 2008, but
forced to run against 6.5hps, our lighter weight was our only saving
grace against such power differential. No more "horsepower" vs.
"light" duels. The Galletta's Karting Club is equal-motor 5hp
exclusive with a minimum weight rule, and it doesn't race on any
track that discriminates against us and forces us to race bigger
motors, or (laughably) weighs down people every time they win.
Period.
(...and I bet the people who
needed to read it just conveniently glazed over it, and keep trying
to force us to race against bigger motors. We'll see.)
 The Oswego Gas Stocker Kart Club races at Galletta's Greenhouse Kartway & Oswego Speedway Kartway.

We race weekly all summer at Galletta's Greenhouse Karting Speedway (a not-for-profit, race-at-your-own-risk, recreational-use backyard dirt oval track), and Oswego Kartway, a small clay oval located in back of its parent track, the famed paved oval (and Home of the Supermodifieds), Oswego Speedway. Take a look at our two-track total in points for the 2008 season between May and September!
We also have two ALL-TIME POINTS
series at two tracks in Central New York.

  The Galletta's Go-Karting Club was founded by brothers Matt and Chris Stevens in the early 1990s when they modified yard karts for racing purposes. They are the inventors of "clockwise 5hp flathead gas stocker kart" racing, and have a 13-kart race team that includes several backup karts available to be rented and raced at both Galletta's and Oswego Speedway all summer. Invented with specifically "gas stock 5hp motor" rules so that a person doesn't have to spend thousands of dollars to race in extremely competitive racing events, the class grows in talent and competition every single year. Join us by building your own kart for around $500 or rent one of our team karts on Summer Thursdays or Summer Sundays in Oswego, NY!  Here is a DVD cover sample to the Galletta's/Oswego Dirt Karting 2008 Volume #13 DVD. All karting classes (WKA Junior, Medium, Heavy, Gas 5hp Flathead Galletta's, Gas 6.5hp OHV Outlaws, Open, and Caged-Champ Karts) are in every volume.
Due to the fact that the karts are so affordable and the oldest veterans have been racing for nearly two decades, it is one of the most difficult karting divisions to win at, but yet you can be instantly competitive for just a couple hundred dollars IF you're a good driver. You can't outspend your opponent due to our gas-powered stock-only rule, so you must out-race them and out-setup them. In fact, nobody has ever defeated Matt & Chris in the open challenge: race a stock 5hp flathead and stop them from scoring 1st & 2nd in a points season. Though hundreds of people have tried in hundreds of races since the early 1990s, Chris and Matt have scored 1 & 2 every year. But it's not just them you have to race. Our regular drivers are all talented and experienced. You can prove your skills against the winningest karters in the local area AND you won't even have to spend a lot of money to get started! We dare you to try! Make your own or rent one of our racing team karts. Sound like fun? Read on, explore the website, and join us!

Comments, questions, and additional info with Galletta's Kart Club drivers and officials can be found on our new message boards. ->Galletta's is a backyard karting track that does not charge anybody to watch or race (though we ask for clay donations). If you want to rent a fast Galletta's 5hp Gas Stocker Kart on Oswego's dirt karting tracks, then inquire! There's always at least one or more karts open and waiting to be raced! Bring your own 5hp gas stocker kart or rent one of ours and join us! We usually run 8-12 kart races weekly, but we'd love to have more on both tracks that we race at, so we ask for more people joining us. Experienced drivers or beginners? It doesn't matter, you can race! Interested? Call us up! Plus, everybody is getting tuned up for the Oswego Speedway Classic weekend at Oswego Kartway. Did you ever think that you could be racing at the famed Speedway on Classic weekend? You can, and for VERY affordably. Rent one of our karts for $20 a week (averaging around 100-130 laps of action on two different Oswego tracks), or we'll help you buy or create your own for just a few hundred dollars. Call us up or email us and find out more details.  Want to join us? We invite drivers (either people to rent our karts and/or with their own 5hp karts) to join us and race at Oswego and Galletta's. We have our own motor class at Oswego now, but still need regular drivers to fill the karts. If anybody is interested in filling a kart on Thursdays at Oswego, or Sundays at Galletta's ($15 for a 10 lap heat and at least 45-lap feature, $10 for just renting at Oswego, and $20 to rent one at both Galletta's and Oswego), just contact us. At Galletta's, it is free to bring your own kart (though we accept $3-5 clay donations).
