So I was at Wildwood this weekend, which was a blast, and I was talking to one of the many people I met and he mentioned he had ridden a flexifoil
buggy that had been converted to something similar to a blokart. Mast/Sail and what-not, and he liked it because it was foot steering.
It had a specific name, that I forgot, a website with said name (which I also forgot) and I met so many people I forgot what the guy's name was who
told me about it (I think it was Mike, but I can't be sure....sorry mystery man)
So, anybody know what I'm talking about? I'd love to be able to convert my flexifoil buggy to a blokart, but I'm stymied on what he had called it.
(BTW I've been googling for a bit with no luck).

Just checked out their site, looks like a $900 retro-fit, (AKA: Money well spent)
Not bad considering a blokart is ~ $2500. Also I like the beefyness of a flexifoil buggy as a base compared to frame of the blokart, I know it's
portable, but I'm not sure how long it would last under a man of my 'stature'
Now, where to get $900.....

sweet the base buggy looks like a rockville, so apparently they are strong enough. probably going to top a grand with shipping
:EDIT: scratch that last bit, price-list says shipping is included
