- I finally get to test my split rear axle that I installed in the last XXL Go-Kart video, plus Reuben gets to try the Go-Kart out! We also add some drift rims to the rear wheels to see if the kart will drift! Enjoy!!

My only suggestion... print a second one so you don't have to take turns. Love following this project:)
Yeah that’s a lot of work but would be fun 😆
I was thinking 'when is this going into production?'
😆
He kinda is, in the form of 8860.. ;)
But personally, I think 8865 is a better vehicle.. for a start, it's red!
I really don't think your mom would want you to drive this.... Next Frame Reuben straps in! Love it...
😆 he was shushing me from behind the camera 😬
@@MattDenton That's awesome.
Reuben … AKA XXL Lego Stig.
😆
'I'm at an abandoned carpark...'
You know you're in for something special when you hear those words.
😆👍 hope it didn’t disappoint
My inner kid's mind is in heaven! I used to imagine being able to become small enough to be able to ride my lego vehicles :) This guy went and did it!
Yes I did :)
Handbrake, Line Lock, AWD, & moar power baby!!
Roger that 👍
The way he put his helmet on at the start was just like ‘The Pink Panther Show’
😆😆😆 true 👍
Finally, I've been waiting for another video of this to come out.
Cool 👍
My 90s childhood dreams have become a reality! Awesome work!
👍👍
As soon as you showed the drift sleeve, I instantly said “drift” - I used to do RC drifting with 1/10 scale thanks to some South African mates who stuck PVC on the wheels. I was instantly hooked! This was back in 2007! Congrats on this awesome build!
Thanks 🙏
@@MattDenton no sir, thank you! This got me all giddy!
👍
It’s definitely evolving as a project.
I for one like the giant Lego, bulldozer is almost done and the 42041 truck will be next 👍
Cool 😎
yeah we need more giant lego
If you like moving dirt 42055 would be epic :)
What a lucky nephew! Looks like a fun project
He is a lucky lad! 😁
It's still amazes me how this thing has held together so well
Me too 😬
Ultimate uncle! Great project, great editing, great hat. Well done.
Thanks Grant 🙏👍
Was someone watching PVC Kei car drifting? Love it!
And for the next episode, Reuben takes on Ken Block in a Lego XXL Hoonigan drift challenge
Keep up all the good work 👍
😆👍👍
The drift slicks look fun.
They are 👍
This is crazy. Amazing work.
Thanks 🙏
A Lego 3d printed go kart is such a cool idea… I’m almost tempted to buy a 3d printer now to make one myself
Do it 🤙
Its really helpful tool to prototype and create fixes but as its said million times there is learning curve and its not push of a button to make it. Printing something that large on even printer that is setup on speed like mine will take days upon days and i would never leave printer going at it on its own so it needs to supervised during that print, just in case of the fire hazard. But yeah get one and start learning. Other option is to get into machining but that is more expensive, but gets you more durable parts and material is cheaply available if you just dumpster dive on right places :D For good price to quality printer i suggest prusa i3 clone its around 300 and gets you going. If you want to make large parts then maybe look into vulcanus or something large like that or build it your self, least then you learn everything about the printer since you built it. Essentially you can just clone i3 clone and make it larger.
Well said
@@Hellsong89 I’m actually rather well versed in 3d printing, just don’t own one myself. The ones I have access to belong to my uni or friends. I’ve been considering the Ender 3 pro for a while, nice big bed and decent accuracy. Just need a grand project to give me the kick to buy it
So awesome, a childhood dream come true! There should be a theme park with life-sized Lego! My suggestion for this project: Print a yellow shell for the helmet so you look like a proper Lego minifigure ;)
Simply lovely, I'd say.... Looks like LOADS of fun!
Thanks! It really is 👍
That's way too much fun!
It is 😆
Hi, Matt. I love the build, and it looks like it's going very well. I'm excited to see what you do with it next.
Thank you 🙏
Just watched through this series up to now, obviously I subscribed, I'm stunned at what you've achieved, so damn cool and so entertaining. Massive thanks for sharing!
Oh thanks. Appreciate the sub 👍
That is frelling awesome.
🙏
I am amazed that the tires even have grip. Since they are fully plastic, I would assume them to slip like crazy.
Yeah not bad considering
You're video's deserve more views!! Like I have never seen anything done like this before!
Oh thanks 🙏
Change it to a hovercraft ore build a Lego speedboat :-) you must be his favourite uncle !!
I hope I am 😬😆
Fun stuff, well done.
Thanks
Amazing stuff Matt!
Thanks 🙏
Now your son just needs a Lego guy outfit.
Awesome stuff. Looks like a blast. My favorite thing is the giant Lego tires. My nephew is only a year old but I have similar "don't tell your mum" plans for empty car parks...
😆 perfect! That’s what nephews and nieces are for 😆😬👍
Kids got some damn talent
Yeah 😆
Excellent gocart!
Thanks
Just found this channel and I'm loving it! Amazing work!! Looking forward to more videos!!
Thanks 🙏
Me: "Hey, I recognise that bit of the old railway in Winchester"...
Matt: "I'm in an abandoned carpark somewhere in Winchester..."
Me: "it is!"
Is it a bit of railway?? Surely not it’s up by Homebase…
@@MattDenton you are on the old Winchester to Didcot route. The railway went through where you are (which is why that carpark is straight and narrow), and then up to join the route of what is now the A34. That area to the right was old old gasworks - there is still an old goods shed building in the industrial estate, it now houses roadworks signs for the council
Ha! Well I’ve only been here 20 years so I’m guessing that was a while back. I did wonder why it was an odd shaped car park :) 👍
"I really don't think your mum would want you to drive this" ... Challenge accepted!!
He was shushing me from behind the camera 😆
Man this is so cool! I love this channel & Matt is the coolest uncle on the planet...not only becuase of the cool toys but he's really good with kids! Enjoy the drifting Matt!
Thanks 🙏 appreciate the feedback 👍👌
That's awesome, you should see if you can take it to your nearest go kart track to drift round.
Yeah that would be great 👍
this is absolutely amazing!!! the fact that its actually using lego technic is just so freaking cool
Thanks 🙏
I think its fair to say you have won the 'Best Uncle 2022' badge.
Why thank you 🙏
Drifting with drift sleeves is great fun, you can be going fairly slow, yet it feels much faster. I was surprised how well it did with the split axle and limited steering angle. A solid axle and greater steering angle could allow for steeper drift angles and longer drifts. I don't know the outer diameter of the lego tires, but drift trikes use PVC sewer pipe on a rubber tire. I'm not sure how you'd attach it to the lego tire, or if it would work best just to print some new tires that will fit snugly into PVC pipe and glue the pipe to the printed wheels but the PVC sewer pipe is really thick and will last a good long time on a kart like that.
Yeah it would be interesting to try the solid axle again
Awesome! I dunno what it is about giant Lego but your builds always make me giggle :)
Thanks 🙏
Dude this is awesome!!!
Thanks 🙏
This is awesome!
Thanks 🙏
Sweet! Take it to a proper go-cart track!
Yeah I really must 👍
Would be worth it for the reactions alone :D
Love this! Feels like I'm watching top gear👍👍
Great 👍 😀
Love the split axle. Been thinking of making a electric kart and using a similar setup to my electric skateboard.
Yeah it now turns!! Well :)
Man I love your content!
Oh thanks 🙏
Great video. Super cool modifications. Mahalo for sharing! : )
Thank you 🙏 appreciated
I think ice tires is a good idea, maybe even square wheels, possibly triangular ones
You seem like a FUN uncle! :D
I hope so 😁
Legendary Uncle Mode activated. 😄
Thanks 🙏
I would have loved to show up to school in this
I think a Costa drive thru 🤔
(if possible and not to long of a process) make another one and do some tandems together!!
It is quite a long process 😬
A tiny Lego compatible combustion engine.
Love the vids
Thanks 🙏
Use 3 motors. One for the front (mid engine style), and direct drive each rear wheel independently.
met you at maker central , amazing work and videos
Thanks Richard 🙏
Legoland should hire you!
Yeah 😆
Volvo wheel loader and one of the steam locomotive those two sets are all I want to see I might try myself when I get a printer
Big sets 👍
Dude, I love your LEGO brick display!!! You should sell alarm clocks based on the same concept !
Thanks 🙏
You should add one of those springloaded projectile launchers that appeared in later sets! (lego part no. 57029c01)
Cool 😎
Next project Lego 8865 - same scale... ^^
Ivan sent me.........i'm glad he did, good stuff Matt
Thanks 🙏
Hacksmith made Mario kart-esque speed boosts with a color sensor. Perhaps you could do that?
Alternatively, go for a more LEGO "power up" and try to attach some projectile launchers? There are the Minifig stud launchers, some 2x2 round tile launching 2x4 bricks, and a "rocket" that looks like a technic half-pin-with-stud has a bar rammed in it. I doubt a large version would actually work with tension and friction as the tiny ones do, but it's nothing some springs couldn't fix lol
Ooh yeah that could be fun 🤩
im sure this was 2nd on the list of things to do with this lol
It probably was 😬😎
Reuben might get a faster top speed because of less wind resistance due to his smaller size but weight affect ultimate top speed
Yes true.. it he gets there a lot faster and I was running out of space when I did my speed tests… and it was windier!
@@MattDenton ah
BIG WHEELS! Go off road!
👍👍
@@MattDenton That was awesome
Thanks
It's outside our rules for racing but if you're bringing this to EMF I'm sure we'll be running our "run what you brung" timed trials again!
Yes cool! I’m hoping to bring it but it has no ground clearance so no jumps 😆
No promises! 🤣
😬
Hey, you were up in Winnall, I live a 10 minutes away from there. I could have held the camera for you :-)
Indeed I was 👍 where the kids do donuts at the weekend 😆
@@MattDenton Ahhh. I live out in one of the nearby villages so all I hear at the weekend are the bikers tearing up the road to Petersfield!
Ahh yes the biker road 😆
it is the mini stig XD
Yeah 👍
Brillaint! What about tires that let it drive on grass or sand?
I think grass is a must 👍
Can it float? 🤔
With some outriggers and some paddle wheels (plus a wee bit of waterproofing of the electronics), I reckon it could!
Oooh.. I don’t know.. it’s darn heavy!! But with floats maybe 🤔
@@MattDenton
Have I just created a monster, planted a seed....! 😀
But, in my defence - lego is all about "would it / could it....."
Finally
👍
Do you have any plans to update the STLs you're selling to better match the kart in your videos (that braced seat, modifications for electronics, etc)?
I don’t know. There are sooooo many differences. Also there’s some heavy engineered parts required
did your nephew take professional drifting lessons or something? because that looked quite impressive when also considering how difficult a skill it can be to master. (at least in normal full sized vehicles anyhow)
other thing i was hoping to see would have been to remove 1 pair of the covers. so that only half the total width of those double wide wheels was covered up. to give a bit more traction. however we didnt end up seeing that in this video. oh well nevermind. not at all sure if it would have helped or hindered, just kindda curious
He does do a bit of karting but don’t honk he’s ever had a drift lesson 🤔
@@MattDenton He has ALOT of talent just doing that "simple" drifting, you should see what he can do in a real cart.
His dad does take him karting 👍
Print two, LEGO RACE!
Maybe you could add a 2-speed transmission. I don't expect you to shift it while moving, but being able to choose between a lower gear for better acceleration and electronic braking (When you fix that.) and a higher gear for a higher top speed could be pretty cool.
Yeah that could be tricky 🤔 how about just bigger motors 😆😬
@@MattDenton That would be cool, but bigger motors tend to draw more power, so you might need bigger batteries, heavier gauge wire, and beefier electronics to handle that. And if I'm being honest, I didn't expect you to actually do it, I was just making a neat suggestion.
He has natural instincts. Get him in a real kart and racing!
He does do a bit of karting but he’ll be chuffed you said that 👍
@@MattDenton that great, bet he loves it. Would be up for aome race videos if you ever vlog him karting.
U should try to make it awd and than drift it, you'll get way more fun and satisfying drifts.
👍👍👍
how about some off roading with tank tracks?
Nice project ! What are the parts you bought for it ? (Motor, battery, screen, ...)
Motor, Battery, motor controller, disk brakes etc
@@MattDenton thx ! Do you have the links of those parts please ? Specially the motor and controller !
OOOHHHHHHMMMMMAAAAHHHHHGOURD
I want one so bad lol.
I would love to buy this Lego kit! In this scale
Maybe I’ll sell it one day 👍
Except for the axles and tires is it printed in PLA? I am totally amazed at how well it holds up. Can you tell us what 3d printer you used with the size?
I hope you sent the video to LEGO. It would be interesting to hear their comments. Very entertaining. You make good videos.
All the chassis parts are printed on PolyMax PLA on lulzbot Taz6 printers, so some parts are joined. Check the older videos for more detail. The front axles are printed in PolyMax PC! Thanks 🙏

I recommend you build a second one with the changes you said you could do the frist one so you a Reuban can race each other.
It’s a lot of work… 😆😬🤔
Ture but i looks like s lot of fun to drive tho
It’s is 😀
I would love to purchase the STL files from you but they aren’t on your threeding account; are they available for sale?
No sorry. There are too many parts that require modifications and a full build / instruction manual that I don’t I’ve time to make. 😬
@@MattDenton Totally understand; what about the red tractor, same deal?
No I will release that at some point
A bigger vehicle!
😆
@@MattDenton I'm serious! 😅
Well I am building the car chassis but it won’t take Reuben let alone me 😆
Can I be your nephew too, uncle Matt? 🤪🤣
😆…😬
6:21 more power .... obviously
😁 it’s pretty terrifying now ! I need to work out the 0 - 60 speed 😎
@@MattDenton ... & tyres with more flex in them, to approximate suspension? 🙂
What song is this
Are you going to make the STL’s for this available for sale?
Probably not. There are so many custom parts and engineered parts required.. which need detailed build manuals and then it’s endless questions 😆
@@MattDenton would you consider selling a dump of all of the current files and them just being sold as is without the bom? It would be cool printing it and tinkering with the files to create my own design. Or just taking it to schools to show students
The thing about selling or giving away files is that they always come with questions, even when I’ve made full BOMs and build guides online, so many people can’t be bothered to read a guide so instead they just email or message and expect instant replies.. hence my reluctance. Not aimed at you specifically
@@MattDenton I understand and appreciate your consideration in regards to the files. Thank you
cute
this is really cool..
how's progress on 8860 going?
Most parts printed!
@@MattDenton excellent
Hi Matt
Love the videos
My daughter wants a Star Wars helmet
I plan to 3D print one for her
If you were spending your money today in the uk which printer or resin printer would you buy
Something sub £500, reliable and repairable
If you have done any videos on this that would be very helpful
Thanks in advance
Erm.. not sure what price they are but Prusa are food value for money
Try to make a mario kart like version of this!
maybe raise the steering wheel up looks a little bit hard to hold for both of you cool as hell though
Yeah I’m trying to keep to the original design. If I raise it up not sure how to get the rack working
Okay . . . This is totally awesome . Where do I sign up ? Seriously . This is a dream come true . How can I help ?
😆 a sub is good 👍 👍
why doesnt lego manufacture these
