Heavyweights Go-Kart Physics

Was watching the movie Heavyweights the other day and when they are at the Go-Kart race of the Apache Relay the kid pulls a lever and the go-kart takes off with enough speed to ramp over the go-kart in front of him. I was wondering how much acceleration would be needed to actually accomplish this.

We know the kid weighted 141lbs and the go-kart is of average size.

Reddit physics lend me your energy!
