Oh helll yes. On my way!
Hey Kevin I absolutely loved the collaboration with Nolan from Donut media 😄👍🏻👍🏻 that was so cool love the channel
howdy
But… you’re already there, if you’ve not left already
Can j and m tv come😂🤣
Bring a 55 gallon drum with you and some 1’ black iron pipe the boys need a way to wet the track down
The track turned out AWESOME! Stay tuned for the Dust Bowl 500 featuring Red Beards Garage, Junkyard Digs, Rather B Welding, Vasily builds, Build Break Repeat, and Tyranis Customs!
Nice track building you guys it’s awesome but don’t over heat the engine of that truck that you just did
that transition 12:35 !!!
You have room for a bigger track JS...
get it banked up a bit in the turns for the highest speeds you guys can get for such a short dirt track. start watering it and working it with your more powerful karts that are capable of drifting those turns.
Dust Bowl 500 lots of bumping and nudging for sure!!! Can't wait to see all the guys rippen around on different machines..
I think your 4 engine go-cart will rip ass on that dirt track.
I love how far y'all have gotten. Watching you guys go from John's parents garage, to a "multi plex" and sports track lol. Awesome dudes
You guys need a couple eBay turbos on that Durango
Yup
I'd button it up and upgrade the cooling system before putting bolt-ons and power adders.
It's a joke field car have fun with it
TWIN TURBO DANGO?
I think cars and cameras is going to be way more funny with Charles joining
Totally agree.
Charles and Ike together always crack me up
He's a fantastic addition to the team!
frrrrrr ong
At 3:00 I absolutely love how you're talking to us on camera and we just see Ike in the background tearing it up in the Durango lol. I absolutely love y'all, your videos make my day and what you guys do looks very fun!
I love the quick frame of Charles drinking the beer after Ike's devastating loss to John
The mini dirt version of Darling Raceway. Love it, can't wait to see it!
Charles is definitely perfect for this channel glad he joined
this video proves his worth
Everything that happened in this video was a good idea.
Imagine a '97 Durango that still has most of it's body... *Laughs in New England*
Lol, New England mechanic here. Worked in Mass and RI my whole life and I am a qualified rust technician. The mopars are tried and true pos.
Midwest here, thatd be a craigslist gem.
As a Rhode Island Resident, I can assure you that this comment us 100% accurate... 🍻🍻
It's pretty cool that y'all have a full on crew now.
Hi y’all from west Alabama love ya
John spinning while the Durango was just shredding was pure filming genius 👌🏼
This is what ive been waiting for! now you will have a place to hold races. Build some race mowers or karts and have race weekends.
Awesome small oval drift track!!! The race will be epic 💯🔥
Drifting is slow, it’s all about going straighter
Tractor supply sells a lawn sprayer that you pull behind your mower might do good for watering the new track down
That’s what I was thinking
It's a reverse banked oval. Can only help you drift. lol
Can we get a “hold my root beer and watch this” shirt? 😂
It’s more like the Egghead 300. The track looks egg shaped 😂😂😂
I think it should be named that
an egg is an oval john did say to build him an oval
I went to a track in Georgia shaped like that.
Darlington speedway in South Carolina is a egg shape
Like a mini dirt Darlington! Awesome! Also, for watering, a big IBC tank, a valve, a piece of pvc with holes drilled in it. Cap the ends off and set it in a truck bed. Get a pull behind spike aerator to help that water get down in the track.
The track looks like Darlington! Looks good brother!
Guys you are great. Thank you for producing fun and clean backyard gokart videos, my kids and I watch them all and we are building our own, picked up a used Manco FoxII and put a live axle and pred212, disc break and all thanks to you guys and GPS.
Glad to see Charles in the crew!
I know a lot of people have said it but man Charles is a great addition to the team.
Charles: "IT IDLES NOW!!"
Ike: [kills engine and dreams]
so rude
For water: some large garbage cans have a hose connection on the bottom. Grab a pickup truck, two large garbage cans, and a hose. We used to put them in a mini van, but gotta check gallon to weight limit.
Treating it with magnesium chloride will work much better and last quite a while.
@@LewdnCute calcium chloride? I still wouldn't want risk breath in too much magnesium chloride. They need to look at drainage before applying chem if they had that weird angle in the track. Don't want to make a pond.
This is the best thing yet to come
Just. You. Wait.
I feel the need....the need for SPEED!
More like the need of…SONIC POWER SPEED!!

You and me both🦖
I'm a precision machine of speed and aromatics
"North Carolina clay"
*Track is dustier than a desert*
anything is dusty when its dried out. let it rain just 1" and watch the clay turn to frickin peanut butter
Clay + no moisture = Dust
Dude that’s just how it is here. When it’s dry it’s a dust cloud and when it’s wet it’s peanut butter.
And let that dust get on you when you're hot and sweaty.
@@kennycampbelljr5896 You get covered in a layer of sweat mud
Love this kind of content
That's what I'M sayin!
When we were kids we would use 2 quad bikes to build a track.
One in reverse, the other behind pushing it along while it spun in reverse.
Worked surprisingly well at the cost of tyres....
Think about adding an outer ring to the track (connects to the main course) for faster carts. Also gives a built in pit row for the bigger machines.
Here's an idea for watering the track!
Get a plastic 55 gallon drum and make a trailer to bolt it onto. Then, make an attachment for water to spill off of and a manual switch to stop the flow. Pull it behind the Kubota, and give it a try! Can't wait for race day!
I think it was 1986 when I was in NC for a BMX race where they built the track inside Charlotte Motor Speedway. It was made out of that North Carolina clay and by the end of the weekend that track was slick with rubber from our tires. Great memories from that weekend.
That Durango is actually pretty decent for having fun in
Startsky and hutch have nothing on Ike sliding on the hood :)
That SENT me😂
That was Bo and Luke, bubba.
“Remember kids, don’t root beer and drive!”
Yeah you could get your pants wet 😂
That’s fucking funny
Soooo adults can root beer and drive
Ain't nobody holding my beer but me as I drink it. Lol.
I'd love to see a racing mower build now that ya'll made an oval track. Maybe with one of those 670cc twins you have, then send it around that oval.
Time to hit the hardware store for an in-ground sprinkler set. That way John won't break off a sprinkler head when (not if) he crashes! Try sourcing a water tank on a skid or trailer that could be hooked up to the system so you don't have to plumb all the way to it.
Use old tires and chain them together and drag the tires it will help you with gain rubber to the track and will better the track grip wise. To water a track you could use a pull behind water tank for a watering system or get an old farmersudical bin us pvc pipe and cut some holes in it
Turn the durango into a track prep vehicle with a big plastic farm tank in the back with a 12v pump and horizontal tube with holes drilled in it. It would be a good episode on its own
A trailer.
A suggestion for irrigation... Get one of those plastic totes with the aluminum cages around it. It will have a 2' valve down at the bottom. then get a piece of 2' pvc pipe, say 6" long, and drill a series of 1/8' holes. Cap one end and connect the other to the tote.Set it in the back of a truck, with the tail gate off. Fill with water... . Irrigation truck...
I'm such a dork so excited.lol anyway to send you guys pics i have 2 carts and a minibike a gas power razor bike and a Chinese 125 pit bike... You guys are awesome
Pvc pipe, some brass nozzles and a water tank with pump on a trailer or on the tractor. I built one to keep dust down in the riding arena at the barn I used to run.
Durango needs the front and rear diffs welded. Pretty wild when all 4 wheels spin
I was hooked once I saw the preview for the 3-wheeler-while-holding-root-beer-race.
YES, MORE OVAL TRACK FOOTAGE, BADASS, make it BIGGGERRR
I cannot believe you are just now getting to 1M subs. You guys are awesome!
Hey here is a tip for the watering system, salt.
You could put it in a water tank thingie that you use to water the track or simply spread it before watering,
makes the soil retain moisture longer and kinda clumps things better.
I use seawater all the time in a 1000L tank or two to do just this.
A 200L (50gallon) barrel with a pipe with some holes in it, in the bucket of the Kubota maybe?
You have something awesome going on. Constantly evolving. Between the weekly builds and the specials, and new shop and friends/employees. Always cheers me up watching cars and cameras. And the podcast is perfect listening to in the garage.
I have 87 acres and it took me 2 months to build an complete atv track. I dragged a flat bed off of a truck to form the track and the end result was amazing but this Cali heat has my track building on hold.
18:14 before Ike has even finished his sentence, there's a solid "I don't know what you're talking about" XD
Watering system: use the durango to pull a trailer with a kiddie pool on it. Im thinking either Ike and Charles use super soakers, or if you want to get real fancy you could connect an actual water pump to the pool and connect sprinklers. It'll be fine
Work the track with the bucket against the path of travel can also try and build more of a berm this way as well. Can wait to see more please and thanks!
You guys are so close to that gold play button! Bet that TH-camr race brings you past the hump! Keep up the great content guys!
And i've been watching you guys from the Beginning
Sweet track brothers.
Can't wait just got my first 200 can't wait till morning to take it somewhere with lots of land and a downhill's mud and everything it's going to be fun by the way keep it up doing good
that durango looks like it needs a welded diff
Turned our back field into a dirt track and raced my 63 impala around the 5 acre field. What a blast.
thank you please more of this
Love your content guys!
Charles doing what i have many times told you Guys, use a Fence or wooden pallet's or make a wooden triangle, where is a metal edges to push materials away, & put alot weights on it & pull it in tractor or car to get ground level & to make mud places less muddie, exsample in forest section where is alot mud pull it level & put Gravel on those pit's & you can dig a ditch on the right side of the road, so the water goes along the ditch to the right place so you can somehow keep the road out of the mud and water.
Hello From The Eddie Friday TH-cam channel!!!
Y'all should have a lawn mower racing competition! You guys and a bunch of other channels should build them and have a race on that track!
Hell yeah brother love making the track to was awesome! With the Freedom Factory coming alive and getting in the swing of it now everybody is going to get tracks of there own. Love it!
Wear a respirator and send it haha. Sprinklers would help but I assume no water out there. If the creek is nearby you could run a hose from it to a 12v marine pump + car battery. I have one on the boat and it puts out some decent pressure. The dust bowl 500 might end up being the mud bog 100 if it rains.
This Old Man loving your videos. Keep them coming. 🛵😎💝💝
Calsium cloride road salt is something we use in Norway to reduce dusty gravel roads.
track watering system, 55G drum, water pump, and a lawn sprinkler, on a trailer should so the trick. fill the drum up from the pond tow it to the track turn on the pump and let the sprinkler do its thing while driving around the track
This is very exciting! I am loving the continuous growth of the channel over the last few months! Well done, gentlemen.
Awesome video guys can’t wait to see you guys burn rubber on the track 👍🏻👍🏻
I like that 1&2 and 3&4 are different banked and shaped.
Wet the track down . Then roll the track in with the gocarts at a low speed. Start on the outside edge and follow the leader til the dirt is smooth all the way to the inside. Thats how we used to roll in Riverside speedway in South Carolina. The only difference we raced cars.
Mount some axles half ones on a piece of PVC pipe a big one plug the ends drill holes in it put a line from a water tank of some sort and it will gravity feed with a line down to the PVC pipe if you hook it up right and pulled around with the Kubota that should work fine!✌️
Y’all need a drag harrow and a beefy zero turn mower just to keep that area clean and neat…you could also grab yourselves a ditch witch and run a line to the centre of the track by that tree
For the dust how about 2 55gal drums on a trailer filled with water towed by the Durango. Some pipe with holes in them to spread the water
To water down the grass just go to harbor freight or northern tool and get a cheap pull behind sprayer. Just drill out the original nozzles on it to spray more water.
Love it!!! Great episode! I have a buddy that wholesales like Ike and I'm always trying to talk him into this kinda s*^*!!!!
Charles is a great addition and really compliments the 2 of you guys.
So excited for upcoming races and events on this track!!!! You guys rock!!
Just use a 55 gal drum and a few pipes and elbows a pipe cap and a pipe valve all things you can get at your nearest farm store put them all together in the proper order then drill some holes for a sprinkling effect and you got a sprinkler if you have a trailer to put the barrel in. Good luck my young friends and the not so young one also lol but always have fun.
Let us see some laps in the Bronco! :D
A few 50 plastic drums in the bucket or on the back of the Tractor filled with water and some holes in the bottom should be able to water the track. You can add some spickets or some kind of ball valves to regulate the flow. Maybe even solder a piece of flattened copper pipe to spread it out. An old sprinkler may work as well. Just dont weigh down the bucket 2 much. Im sure just the bucket will work as well but will be hard to get a good sprinkle
You guys have a dream life!!! Great content... Love garage "Pro" jects
Get a 55 gallon drum drill holes in it for pvc pipe with small holes drilled in it on the lower side or bottom add shut-off valves to control the water mount it on a trailer or truck
That is sick dudes. I used to have a super small one in my backyard but then we made a much bigger oval track at my grandpa's material yard.
This…. This is how you build a dirt track💯😂😂❤️
as far as water, take that big tote you got plumb a section of 2 "PVC with some holes in it and start making laps warning if you want it to not be dusty water it with 4 or 5 loads the night before.... and put one gallon of liquid dish soap in the water.... it will keep dust down and make clean up easier..
Nice he goes from intern to buddy. It is proper.
The track is smoother than the roads in Illinois
At the 6:39 mark I'm thinking just race around the track and the dirt will move from the inside of the oval to the outside all by itself. Over time you will have to rake the outside dirt back into the middle. Have fun!
If you build it they will come... Great track guys!! 😎 🦖 💪
Looks super fun, go to tractor supply and get one of those field pesticide sprayers, it has a bar in the back with pray nozzles, I’d recommend using that to put water down because it’s mobile and you can hook it to the back of a go cart or atv. Speaking about atv, whatever happened to the atv and golf cart?
Finally. An oval track. I live in kings mtn NC let me participate 😅😅😅
While holding a "root beer" hahaha I love you guys!
Looks good,,, man you could park rvs there,, hey Ike,,,, you ever raced circle track,,,,, you should.. Virgil’s Root Beer,,,,, good choice,,, , as for your track wetter, blue plastic 55 gallon barrel, some pvc pipe, (drilled) and use your creek as your water source
Just bought some merch wish the it will be fine shirt came in black but red will do love watching this channel one of my favorites all ways have the notifications on and maybe a grey color would be awesome!!!!
No one talked about how difficult it would be to not spill that and the dude did 5 lapse that man is a champion
