It looks a little too powerful to be able to control it well. I think that you should take off the front sticker, so the power will be a little more manageable.
Going to build mine midship and awd thank you for the prototype you built its inspiration for mine. Being a welder, mechanic, and driver is one hell of a drug.
I knew from the title this would be good. We built mini formula cars with these engines, and they were incredible. Death trap is probably right, beef up that cage!
@@mynamesfred I wish... we didn't even have cell phones with cameras back then. Late 1990s. It was called formula SAE... there are definitely videos of more modern versions of it. They were getting mid 2s 0 to 60 times. All my videos now are outdoors stuff and shooting now.
@dwbowhunterable lol sorry im spoiled on technology I guess 😅 but yeah they move pretty good mid 2's 0-60 had got to hurt like being shot out of a cannon lol
Looks a lot like an ASW frame. I have an ASW kart and the stock 149cc 8HP engine beats it up in my yard. Top speed of about 29 Mph. I pop the front shock regularly causing the lower suspension arm to flip back and the nose to dig in standing the kart up on the front-end. (Thank goodness for the 4-point belts) I don't know how yours moves that fast and stays in one piece when it has to carry the weight of those giant, solid brass balls around. I love it!
It has it, but the rod kept slipping and throwing the rear end in neutral I have to stop get out pull the lever back in drive it sucked so I used a ratchet strap to hold it in the drive mode so it can't slip might of been from all the rmps
I imagine it feels amazing driving a monster of a machine that you built yourself Looks stupid fun, only thing I would add is a reverse gear as a separate small electric motor
It has an actual reverse but unlike a car were its in the transmission this reverse the gear in the rear end. The motor has so much power going to the rear end that it will knock the rear end into neutral so i used a ratchet strap to keep it in the forward gear
Some people go to starbucks, order a pumpin spice late machiatto with double whip cream and then take 10 pictures for instagram and call that fun. Can't relate. This however... This does look like fun to me. There is just something about riding a beast that's screaming on the top of it's lungs at 10.000 rpm. What you have made here just sounds WILD. Well done.
A true death trap, I broke my forearm in half in something similar (double compound fracture). Be careful and keep your hands inside the vehicle for when this inevitably flips :)
I bet that took a few weeks to walk off? Thank God you were ok? And yeah its just a matter of time before i go flipping im sure! You mod something to do over 100 thats designed to do like 45 its gonna get wild eventually
