All the oil in the crankcase will have settled in the rocker box but no worries just put the kart back on its wheels and leave for about 10 minutes before starting the engine.This will allow the oil to drain back into the crankcase.
It may be advisable though to take the sparkplug out and check if the oil has seeped down the valve guides and filled the combustion chamber.If it has just turn the engine over a few times with the starter and the excess oil should be expelled from the plug hole.(Hold a rag over the head otherwise you may get an oil bath doing this !!)
