Jet Powered Go-Kart (Top Speed Run)
ฝัง

- I Built another Jet Go-kart just to see what the Top Speed of the single Engine Jet-powered Go-kart is.
In the previous jet go-kart video I did everything except for a top-speed run, so here it is, I thought it was kind of weak because I was expecting a lot more but the wind resistance is much stronger than You think it would be.
I am editing this video after a Brain injury I sustained recently, so I'm not seeing things exactly the same way I used to right now, I hope this video is edited well lol.
let me know what you think and wish me luck on posting more videos! these are pretty difficult sometimes.

I was wondering about the top speed when i watched that original vid. Tbh i thought it would be a bit faster, i was able to get to 41mph on my own jet kart with a smaller engine and it was still accelerating, but i got sketched out.
Yeah I think I remember that, I also thought it would have been much faster like over 80 mph. But it was definitely on the balance point and the wind resistance was definitely doing its thing. I think with some more aerodynamics it would have probably done 70 or 75, but honestly if I want to go faster I'll just put more engines hahaha.
I saw a guy who was trying to break the world speed record with a RC car having to do a bunch of things similar to what would hold back the speed from air drag
That dudes problem was tires, it’s prob a combination of road type and tires
40 mph with a jet engine is pretty sketchy, idk how the dude did 60 mph in one, I bet a pothole or bump is a nightmare
@@WarpedPerception how much would it cost to build one of this i love to own one ? Would you guys build one sell it ? I would be interested in buying it
@@WarpedPerception Please tell us the name of the awesome song playing at @1:00 !!!!!!!!!!!!
@@WarpedPerception Aerodynamics are for people who can't build engines.
This man is the definition of; If it drives, put a jet engine on it.
Rad.
Colin Furze mate!
I know you do stuff differently but I gladly would have watched 5 individual 25 minute long episodes of you building this thing.
Thank you, I think about that every so often, but to be realistic I have a lot of videos to make, I'm so backlogged. I'm just trying to get on it now.
Sick Matt..
I just showed my son your channel. It's probably the best channel he's ever seen. 😊
@@WarpedPerception here’s another one for the backlog, completely unrelated to this. I haven’t found a single video on the Internet that shows the output side of a turbo when it’s being run by exhaust of an engine. Like how much air is coming out, and what happens when you start to constrain it with a nozzle? is it a leaf blower? Is it an air compressor, what’s going on there?
@@jcimsThere is a video called "Actual working model of turbo charger" I think it's similar to what your looking for, not exactly but pretty close :)
I have something to build and wonder if that engine and electrics are for sale somewhere that you could share the link?
Many people cannot appreciate what this man builds in his garage. Amazing stuff as always WP! And 50 plus mph is a cart is far faster than most can conceive. That’s smoking.
Thanks, personally I thought it was going to go faster I thought I was going to get to at least 80. But that wind force is killer!
Thanks! You know what's up. Tbh the disease is very painful at times, making things work well is hard, making things work great is very difficult most times.
@@WarpedPerceptionwhat if you try adding some aerodynamics body to it
We run over 50mph with predator engines on small dirt tracks. Clones are 60+
U should make me one
this channel always amazes me at the effort this dude puts into his projects... always 10/10
@@DontReadMyProfilePicture.57 is this some kind of Russian nesting doll thing?
Yeah 100%, the amount detail in every little thing he does is crazy.
So many other build channels are sketchy as hell and just try to hide it with editing
As always, above and beyond what we deserve in a vid.
Thanks man
😊
That drag behind the go-cart is also robbing the engine of ram recovery pressure. You need ducts that take the free stream air and direct it to the intake.
Well these engines don't benefit from RAM recovery at all, if they don't get enough air, they stall
@@WarpedPerception Now water injection? That may help! Might not be enough compression for that though
i thought it would be sick if adds body panel that shape like a jet with the intake of F35 up infront to channel it to the jet engine. i wonder if it faster like that
@@BlueRice that's exactly what I was thinking for the next build. I don't know how much it would help performance but it would look cool for sure.
I was like wtf with the intake behind the seat..
Praying for your recovery…. Glad your staying engaged with you passions. Take care
Thanks.... I'm just glad I'm here and I'm still functional, brain injuries are no joke, like nothing I've ever experienced before super bizarre.
@WarpedPerception damn bro glad you're doing better, I know it's none of my business, but you know what they say curiosity killed the cat, do you mind elaborating a bit on why your injury happend? Did you fall and hit your head or crash or something like that? I really like your channel and can't wait to see future uploads :)
These are great, I think you could get more content out of a lot of these builds if you did build videos. I know they take time, but there is so much involved in these and I'm sure we all want to see more!
These videos are always amazing to watch! Do you think that one day you would make a tutorial video/explaining the process of what you do to make these jet engines? I think it would be awesome to see the process.
this man put passion into it without knowing it. add finishing to the chair, wheel balancing and paint the chassis. this is quality workmanship just for a project that he do for youtube
How much does a jet engines cost?
Felt like i have been waiting for this video for years now. Lol went to sleep a few time wondering what the top speed was going to be. I fully appreciate thr work you put into this and all you videos.
I know, I'm always super late because I got a million things going on, but recently I sort of become more focused so hopefully I can keep some momentum on some videos here. Thanks!!
Love your projects! Very underrated, been following you for years. Greetings from far away Finland in Europe, keep it up! 💪😎👌
Man this is such a nice video! So much progress and perfectly created with no drag or delay to make the video longer! PERFECT!
Thanks I appreciate that, sometimes I wonder whether I should make the videos longer and more dragged out .
Nice build! Absolutely nice seeing you build the right stuff the right way! Thanks bro!
Thank you... You know the details are tough!
Great, as always, I really appreciate your detailed works!
- improve the aerodynamics with some covers over the frame and the bottom
- side skirts for groundeffect
- add 2 vertical parallel fins behind (each) jet engine that are controlled via cables and the steering for giving you vector-thrust in tighter turns; if you have oversteer and you need to counter-steer the vector-thrust can help you to get the rear of the go-cart back on track
😉
*Nice project!!!* 😃👍
That was awesome!!
I would love to see you add some aerodynamic additions/changes to see how much faster you can get it to go. I'm guessing if you can get the seat to lay back some, that alone could easily get it over 70.
Great job and keep up the great work!!
Absolutely amazing! The fabrication, the upholstery, everything diy. I want to be like you when I grow up lol.
That was crazy cool !! If you added aerodynamics of any sort, I'm sure you could increase the top end, but not by much. Not sure I would want to go much faster, without some crash protection, pads, etc., as any failure at these speeds would probably equal a hospital trip. Just a very cool project, all in all, and well done !!
Yeah exactly, I completely agree.
If he added some aero it could be a fighter jet.
Now he's at 50mph the jet behind the seat will start to suffer reduced intake due to a low pressure region forming.
To be fair, I think there could've been a noticeable difference even if he had just tucked down.
@@yuvix I agree, but My solution would just be add more engines lol
Amazing and really cool kart! I can't wait to see whats next .Thanks for posting this .
I'm just glad that you're back, bro. Awesome content as usual, keep it up! Get well soon.
Thanks, I'm getting a little better everyday, my vision and brain function were the biggest hurdles
I love this channel!!! Wish you much success bro!!! 🔥💯🔥
Thanks!! It's been really rough
Cool video, I enjoyed that. I've always wanted to explore the possibilities of those small jet engines, and what better way to do it than with a go cart.
Yes! Finally. So glad to see you back in the swing of content, keep this momentum please!
Thanks I'm trying, it's been so tough, between doing and Mr Beast projects for months on end, and trying to get my stuff together, and then recently getting injured... Always something but I'm definitely going to try to keep momentum here, I love making videos.
@@WarpedPerception I'm sure that Mr. Beast project was much more involved than it appears from how we see it through a screen. We know you love making videos! You've got this.
@@travis.napier well I worked on at least 5 Mr Beast projects so yeah That's what it took so long. Not sure which one you saw.
@@WarpedPerception Oh man, I'll have to look more then. I only saw the one jumping the school buses.
I'm curious what the rpm came up to after the carb adjustment. By the way I want to say thanks for the hard work and time put into your unbiased reviews. Keep up the good work.
Bro casually came out of nowhere after 2 months as usual
I know it's been tough, I was pretty much on schedule last year around this time but then I did a few projects with Mr Beast, I just finished those up in June, then I had to set up all my machines for all of the videos moving forward, then I had a brain injury a few weeks ago. But I'm recovering and back to making videos now. All I really want is a consistent upload schedule but these projects are extremely difficult and my life is insane.
Been missing your content, Matt. ALWAYS good shit. Keep em coming. Please.
Thanks, I've been really tied up for the last year working on Mr Beast project, but as of July I'm back on my stuff, A few weeks ago I got sidetracked with an injury but I'm recovering now...it was insanely painful.
It's interesting how you layed out the dawg as a blast shield !!!🐕
Man, you do great work. A lot of very different skills. I was impressed just by the wrapping of the steering wheel lol. Some would make a video just of that, for you, its just a 5 second time lapse shot (which is cool too). I can appreciate the time it takes to make custom stuff like that. Let alone the one off cnc parts, anodizing, building/programming electronics, etc..
Happy i found this channel. You could probably make a separate channel just for 'behind the scenes' from leftover footage that gets cut/glossed over during a project like this.
Dude you are seriously talented and skilled. Blows my mind how much you know how to do
Chinese cheap tyres will be a completely different compound of rubber. Harder. Longer to heat up. More difficult to keep the heat etc
I found that out the Hard way lbvs lol.
@@WarpedPerception me too except I was in my 1985 mini in the rain 😂😂😂😂 I always buy a certain hankook tyre nowadays because of it 😅😅
This is awesome! Next level content for sure.
Thank you
Good to see you back
Ohh man, yes!, your stuff is allways top notch!
Truly spectacular!!!
Amazing ! Great work.
Need to do a twin jet setup next! Can’t wait to see the top speed on that!
This man brings anything he thinks of to life
Craziest but amazing to see. Great work dude.
Brilliant ,and the bonus you even explain the thrust drag stuff so simply Great video . Vetri South Africa 🙏🇿🇦🙏
That thing as a Hybrid would be even more awesome.. Amazing work.
I love it. Very NICE. Just watching. this was a great learning experience for me.
Can't wait for the three engine model. Almost 3 times faster ? Thanks
Definitely seems like independent rear axles is the way to go with the next iteration. Complicates braking a bit, but would give a ton of maneuverability improvements.
Can't wait to see more jets added to this unit
Awesome so glad you did a top speed because I was wondering what its top speed was, thanks for doing the top speed!!!
Thanks, A lot of people ask me in the comments, and I was personally curious so it had to be done, I was supposed to have the next video out already but I had a brain injury a few weeks ago, it was hell no joke I can't even explain how intense the pain was for a week and a half straight non-stop no break, it was insane, but I'm back at it now
Great job it’s amazing.
Awesome mate!! Very quick. To decrease drag, enclose the front.
That looks like a blast
Notification SQUAD!!! Have a nice weekend!🔥🔥🔥
Can’t wait for 3 jets!
Nice work!
You are a scientist, top mechanic, driver, inventor...you rock 💪😎
I randomly searched your channel yesterday for jet engine content as a reminiscer and suddenly this has appeared. Awesome!
I just got back to it after almost a year of back to back Mr beast videos and then I had a head injury a couple weeks ago I'm now recovering from ☹️. I literally have like the worst luck
@@WarpedPerception get better soon. I'll be ready and waiting for the next jet madness!
@@RobOnMotors thanks.... I'm on it.
What a fantastic video. Love your stuff..
Thank you
A great Go Kart BUILD with a Jet engine
Love the science and engineering!
Thank you
What a great build! That seems like alot of fun to drive, nice engineering =)
Thanks Man! To be honest I really didn't want to do this video, I wanted to go way more extreme, but I had to do it because I was curious and so was everyone else I guess. But the next couple GoKart videos are insane lol. I just don't think I'm going to be able to ride them because I recently had a brain injury.
@@WarpedPerceptionyour fans appreciate having this for comparison before the next generation. Great video…
Sorry to hear about the injury… I pray that it’s fully recoverable.
So sorry to hear about your brain injury, hope you recover quickly! Can't wait to see what is next in store mate!@@WarpedPerception
@@WarpedPerceptionwasn't courtesy of one of your projects, was it? You do some outstanding things on this channel. 🤘best wishes on a speedy recovery. Peace, John
That was baddass👍made me nervous watching!
Everything you build is top notch Matt. Your kids friends must be envious!
The little kids are always pretty cool, it's the adults I have issues with, I have people that are so mad at me for no reason at all that they don't even talk to me.. dead serious..
@@WarpedPerception That is sad my friend. But I guess that's just how some people are nowadays. 🤷♀ And yeah, kids are amazing.
It sounds like a jet plane. It's actually a freaking jet! Fascinating
Wow! I think a duct into the jets intake to take advantage of ram air at higher speeds would really help the peak thrust and top speed. Right now the jets intake is in a vaccum region which is fighting performance
That's what u would think but these are turbo jets, They don't pull in as much air as you would expect, most of the power from these engines comes from the fuel, If they don't get enough air they stall, that's pretty much it. I do however wonder if an air intake would increase the efficiency. See because no matter what these engines are RPM based, they're going to dump fuel until they reach the target RPM or stall in the case of not getting enough air. I'm definitely going to experiment with that
Pretty crazy setup specially with all that fuel and stuff in front of you.
Just glad you didn't hurt yourself doing this. The sort of thing you should be doing at a racetrack with flame proof suits not on a back street somewhere.
Anyway, good to see you survived it OK.
Bro killed the video again 🎉
Awsome video!!
Great work ❤
That looks so fun.
That was very impressive ! I was not expecting that level of speed and performance from only one of those engines. That jet engine packs a punch with out a doubt ! At those speeds with that amount of fuel sloshing around not to mention a smoking hot jet engine, you might want to get a nomex suit or the likes. Just my 2 cents.
It's guys like him that makes me want a Go-Kart myself, just to have a little something to get around on in my town and to get out and get some air every now and then.
Would the top speed change significantly if you put the jets intake in full air flow, so not right behind the vaccuum you create with your seat and body? I'm curious about what that would do to the total thrust.
Cop casually drives by like a jet engine go cart is the least of his worries that day. Creative content is greatest!
Bro, all that awesome work and no roll cage? Come on man. Still really cool, super talented.
That anodizing looks SICK bro!!
It works so well And you can do pretty much any color you want if you do it yourself.
@@WarpedPerception You're a wizard, Matt! I love it!
keep up the good work
Hope your injury isn't life changing. Keep up the good work.
What happens did I miss something 🤔
@@alraybaca6235 read the notes/description
How did you know about my injury?
I recently had a brain injury, it's been an extremely insanely painful last couple of weeks... When I was in the ER I had a full dose of fentanyl and the pain was still there, But I'm currently recovering and I'm doing pretty good.
@@WarpedPerception you put in in the description
That is a great little kart. I can't imagine what three of those motors would push you to. Question: I notice the jet engine is quite close to the air intake of the engine. I would venture to guess that there is possibly intake issues. I would think if you could build an air intake system for the front of the engine, you might be able to go even faster. Great video.
It seems that way but this engine is a turbo jet, it won't really benefit much from any sort of RAM air, most of the thrust on these engines comes from the fuel, They don't pull in as much air as you think they do And the only time that location would be an issue is if you were doing 200 or 300 mph And it was creating a vacuum behind the seat. But if there were air intake issues those engines stall when they don't get enough air.
Alright, so more ideas getting explored here: Arguably the largest wond resistance is always going to be the person in the seat, maybe create a clear hood structure of some kind to reduce the drag? Or for shear numbers game create an entirely remote version with cameras installed in case you lose line of sight somehow.
Beautiful fab work! How did u cut that hub from the billet?
Love ur vids!
Thank you
am glad for being one of the few first subscribers of this chanel 👅
I wonder if the engine is starved for air being right behind the seat in a negative pressure area?
Excellent video! I love how you make it look good before you test it.
If you mount another one or two jets on there, it might be good to add a spoiler front and back to get some downforce to make the tyres stick better?
It needs an air duct for high speed, they really need a lot of fresh air at high rpm and its probably not getting enough that close to the seat.
It's ok, these are turbo jets, if it's not getting enough air it will just stall, doesn't affect the power any.
Your knowledge and skills are next level
Thank you
Absolutely incredible work!
Awesome man, you went over the top with the finishing touches, was that seat alcantara?
Thanks... Yes it is !!!! Good eye.
I'd love to see if the single jet makes much more top speed with some ducts feeding it air. It seems like as the speed increases, inlet pressure would be dropping. It's possible the added drag ends up equaling the improved thrust, but it'd be interesting to see especially because it looks like when you have 3 jets there will be 2 operating in clean air
Well these are turbo jets, they don't really benefit from ram Air too much. With turbo jets if there's not enough air flow or the air pressure in front of the intake is too low then the engine will stall. The speed here is too low I would think maybe over 150 or 200 mph there might be enough of a low pressure zone behind the seat to reduce the amount of air to a point where it could cause problems, these engines get most of their thrust from burning fuel And they are RPM based, So the computer will inject fuel to get to the Target RPM. As for the 3 jets I am building a completely different setup for that.
hello its been 12 min and wow that go kart look so goood and the next time strap three jet engines to the go kart
One bad ass video loved the sound 👍🏻
Would installing an air duct that directs unobstructed air into the intake of the engine make any kind of difference in performance?
Growing up next to an 8 mile long dry lake bed. trying to find places to go fast was never a thing I worried about. although
I never had a jet powered go cart😂 but I did do some land yachting which you need good flat open areas to get some good speed
That sounds pretty amazing
Maybe with a better air intake of the jet engine you could get more thrust at higher speed, because with the current setup the seat is masking the intake of jet engine
Amazing engineering effort indeed! However, for comparison - a standard 125cc racing kart (such as Vortex Rok) gets up to 60 in 5 seconds and tops out - depending on gear ratio at around 80 mph. And oh boy, it can turn! So if someone proposes competition - stay away :) Also, your tires might actually be wet weather tires, as for a dry track karts use slicks only. Bridgestone slicks will certainly provide a lot of grip - and they don't wear too fast. I used to race karts professionally and I love this jet kart - awesome job man!
I'd say when you install the other two put them on the sides instead so when you give it throttle the thrust comes from the center and not the rear for control at high speeds.
Also maybe build a fiberglass body that goes over the front for better performance at high speeds perhaps one that guides air into the jet engines.
thats crazy that vid of the dude on the kawasaki is in my hometown🤣 never realized that till now
put an adaptive aerofin, not just for downforce but for lift too, active aero that goes full lock when braking and entering corners.
First Time Caller 😂
But just looking at the pictures.
Extending the frame just a tad. And putting the outside engines, just so they warm the tires.
Yeah, make them individually throttlable.
You might get a cart that has an All Weather Capability 😂
... and Sticky in the Corners 😏
From an old school aerospace guy.
That actually worked with that Science Guy.
I think his name was Speed Walker 😂
... memories 👍
Wraped perfection 🎉
Lol... Yeah unfortunately it's a disease I can't shake most of the time
@@WarpedPerception you killing the game my friend 🤘
New tires are still coated in mold release from factory. Never seen pavement, and have no micro abrasions on the contact patch.
Nobody does it quite like you. Well done.
Awesome❤😊
