“Set 8842 was released in 1986 and was already the 3rd go cart released by LEGO®. This go cart features steering using a rack and pinion system, a single cylinder reciprocating engine driven from one rear wheel, and dual wheels on each corner. This go cart did not really... More break any new ground for Technic except for the mounting of the engine at an unusual angle.”

“The Go-Kart from the Lego Technic series is in my opinion one of the most beautiful models ever. It’s built from a few individual parts and is very similar to the original. In addition to the great look, the stable construction also impresses, so that having fun is... More guaranteed. Unfortunately, all this is not enough for the maximum rating, as the pistons in the engine are only driven by a rear wheel. As a result, there is no differential. But all in all it’s a great model, which should not be missing from any collection.”

About Technic

TECHNIC is one of The LEGO Company's main lines based on creating detailed model machines and mechanical toys with specialized beams, axles, gears and connectors and primarily designed for older children and adults. The theme was first introduced as the Expert Builder series in 1977, but was officially renamed as TECHNIC in 1984. TECHNIC is still an active theme, and is one of the longest running themes in LEGO history. While most TECHNIC sets are vehicles that use pieces to mimic real vehicles, such as engine pieces, suspension, pneumatic, and transmission pieces, the TECHNIC parts have been used by various other System themes as well as LEGO Mindstorms.
Summary
Technic Go-Kart set 8842 was released in May 1986, retailing for $25, but has since been retired. New, unopened Go-Kart sets are valued at $105, while used sets can be found for $25.
