RENNtech is the tuner you turn to when modifying a Mercedes-Benz. We didn't know it's also the tuner to visit when you want a racing kart that will scare the bejeezus out of its competition. This little guy is reportedly called the RENNtech/Aixro XR50 and features a 50-hp rotary engine onboard to power its featherweight frame. The cherry on top, however, are the body mods inspired by this kart's much bigger brother, the Mercedes-Benz SLR 722. It's got the nose, fender grating and side exhausts that add up to a convincing interpretation of the SLR in miniature form.
