This kart has a bit of a long name. Bear with us. The Bobandinator Platt-Num, Pl-Attitude Murder 187 Babymaker mobile. An old race kart frame once owned by Kelly Miller, sold to Brian Bortel, sold to Chris Stevens, sold to Randy Platt, and then completely rebuilt with a brand-new rear end, Randy sported a beautiful light and dark blue color scheme en route to a few feature wins in the vehicle.

But after making babies left and right, Randy inexplicably retired himself and the kart in 2014, despite living a 1-minute drive away from Galletta’s! It sits motor-less trackside awaiting a rebuild. Will Ran-the-man resurrect it?

NO! He will not!

The kart was sold in 2016 to someone who has never raced it a single time, who then sold it to Travis Bartlett in 2022, who is planning on prepping it for a return to competition!

Fun time – THE 187 IS ON FAIH!!!!:

Randy ‘Bobandi’ Platt, who missed THE week’s race to watch his beloved New York Giants promptly get smashed by their hated division rival Washington Redskins, was informed via email that his kart was driven by Brian Galletta with the title saying, “THE 187 IS ON FIAH!!!”

Randy’s response to this was, “hahahaha and just wanted to say WRONG thing to say for a subject title (187 on FIAHR) ahahahaha just about (SHAT) myself!!!!!!”
