You've got quite a pair, my friend. After telling about the damage to your helmet, that could have been to your head, you jump in this glorious deathtrap without one and rip it to 59MPH. What a great video series, and what a great bit of engineering! Kudos!
You just put a smile on a 50 year olds face, that hasn't had one this big since he was 18 and had a Gremlin mini bike with an 18 horse engine on it. Thank you my friend!
Just went back to all your videos and watch the go-kart build which is pretty awesome my son took a snowmobile engine and shoved it in a Polaris four-wheeler kind of the same situation but I truly do love the little Memorial at the end They're Not Just Pets their family so thank you
I sure did enjoy all six of the go cart build videos. You sure are a master of the machine shop. This is my new favorite channel. I really like the old car, truck ect. revival videos. You are living what this viewer dreams of. Thanks, and looking forward to more videos!
Love the build. I bet it brought back memories when you rode around in it for the first time. Memories of when you were a kid and you were going to upgrade your cart, paint it, wheels etc when you got older.
I must say i envy people who can build and fix everything and anything, i can't even change the oil to my car, but that's what money is for. Like your helmet by the way 😉
That thing is a beast you better be careful on that thing but you did a great job on it i just started watching the Chanel and i love watching stuff like that so i will be watching the Chanel from now on keep on keeping on oh yeah go do something
You tha man !! . Sounds like the chain may be Poppin when your turning around. That could be the issue with 1'st gear. Thanks man ,,, I appreciate you. ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, Jeremy in Alabama.
A few bad China parts and some good old country boy American ingenuity this thing is amazing thanks for bringing me along on this video I can't wait to see more stuff I'm one of your new subscribers and I think all the ideas you have are Lessons Learned and also good for knowledge
I’m building a cd550 cafe racer and all my research show that pod filters can cause idling issues as well as a few other running issues. My solution was to use the stock plastic manifold and built and adapter to run a single K&N big pod Filter.
Woah!! That sucker is going to blow those bearings right out of those little wheels LOL. It's FAST! Sir you should be proud of that shifter! That's awesome!!!
This is awesome. I have a 1400 Suzuki Intruder that I've been thinking about converting to a go kart, but it's shaft driven and that he's me nervous. Lol
Carburetor's are constant velocity type and they are a real bitch to get synced! I'm worried that the next place to flex will be just forward of your seat but a piece of flat bar welded on edge under the tube like the old axle setup should stiffen that up! LOVE IT!!!! LOL!
Another trick for increasing breaking power is to move the disk to the jack shaft and take advantage of the gear ratio. It’s what monster trucks do but there is up by the drive line. This way thy can run tiny rotors and calipers. But I’m not sure on your gear ratio but it looks like your stepping down to the dead end so that won’t works.
Nice work, it reminds me of one i started on a few years back I picked up a old go- cart with no engine and was thinking a 883 harley davidson engine would make it go just haven't got around to it
That cart is as cool as $h!t....!! How many hours have you got in it, and will you be adding updates as this lil beast evolve...?? Man that looks like fun...!! I'm going to ask my mom... o_O...?!?! I mean my wife if I can build one, even though I already know that her answer is already "NO.!!!" Awesome job Buddy....!! I can't wait not to have one...!!
a place call erri cable in hesperia ca makes awesome cables. It is a mom and pop place and they stand behind there stuff and not made of a million dollars either
Think it would look and handle a bit better with a longer front axle and bigger wheels at the front as it is it resembles a dragster but if you want better handling I would set it up like an f1 car that way you get handling and speed and of course would be safer
I was watching another video where someone replaced the factory air box with those individual air filter and they were causing the drivability issues! Something to do with the way air flow enters the carb!
You are amazing! To make that kart& do what it does, classic redneck engineering! Really enjoy your videos, love your sense of humor& the content is very interesting, keep up the good work! Between you, vice grip garage&mortske repair I stay entertained, thank you Chad!
i put a 650 Kawasaki 4 cylinder on what started as a lawnmower frame and grew to a 4 tire at the back and dune buggy front end together in the 90's was so much fun.I could float in water if i kept going. was slow on takeoff But Lord thunderin Jebus once rolling Eye carumba ! My balls gave out and the will to live came back at 105 mph {on a dirt road}..It could go 150 mph easy..I'll say like u..."Not with me on it!!!!"Finally i lost her and was going to die on a big Pine so i Bailed out in Flight over the ditch. I year of rehab,A leg that now bends both ways,broken ribs...but did better than the "go cart"...it hit straight on a Gigantic pine,exploded{pretty much} set a big fire and they found parts REALLY far from the crash...o and i had to crawl on the road with broken stuff cause the fire caught up to me in the Ditch where i landed..I was in 5th when i lost control !!!!!!!!!...So here is what i learned,,,short wheel base SUCKS ,because once u are in a wobble ,its all over but the tears...Your buggy is awesome...thanks chad
59 probably feels pretty scary I'm sure. You should check out a channel called...rather be welding. He built a kart with a snowmobile engine. He can't keep the front wheels on the ground.
You've got quite a pair, my friend. After telling about the damage to your helmet, that could have been to your head, you jump in this glorious deathtrap without one and rip it to 59MPH. What a great video series, and what a great bit of engineering! Kudos!
48 year old crazy man! Loved the build series. The man does have patients and a great engineering mind.
The older the kid, the faster the toys!
You just put a smile on a 50 year olds face, that hasn't had one this big since he was 18 and had a Gremlin mini bike with an 18 horse engine on it.

Preshate that. 👍
Brave fella going 60 on those tires, lol. Nice work! I have really been enjoying your channel.
Love the build. I bet it brought back memories when you rode around in it for the first time. Memories of when you were a kid and you were going to upgrade your cart, paint it, wheels etc when you got older.
My neighbors would have call the law on me after first pass . cool ride great video .
All I can say is,,,,,,WOW...Epic,This is indeed an awesome
trilogy build.
Holy crap. That thing is insane!!!!!!!❤
I must say i envy people who can build and fix everything and anything, i can't even change the oil to my car, but that's what money is for. Like your helmet by the way 😉
Oh man that looks like tons of fun, well done brilliant build.
Chad that kart is the coolest thing I have seen! The Formula 1 shifter was genius. 👍👍👍🔥🔥🔥
Excellent build, looks like a ton of fun👍👍
I like this feller amazing content thumbs up
yes rest in peace Mr. Gerald, kitty heaven for you
That was quite a project, Chad. A whole heap of work. (And some impressive cap recovery)...
Why thank you!
That thing is a beast you better be careful on that thing but you did a great job on it i just started watching the Chanel and i love watching stuff like that so i will be watching the Chanel from now on keep on keeping on oh yeah go do something
This is so freakin cool. Great job. Wish I had half your mechanical ability. Loved the series.
Very nice job on that beast! Electric shift setup is genius!
Awesome! All you need now is a set of headlights
I smiled so much watching you ride this....love this channel now more than ever....fantastic dude....I want one so much....love me Honda CB engines...
I wasn't sure about these videos,but it turned out cool . Glad i ended up watching. You are one good fabricator.. p x
That's a great go cart love to get behind that wheel lol
You tha man !! . Sounds like the chain may be Poppin when your turning around. That could be the issue with 1'st gear. Thanks man ,,, I appreciate you. ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, Jeremy in Alabama.
Some little drag slicks and a drag strip right there
That is so cool. I want one. Have fun. I love your videos. From Phoenix. 👍
Fun watch…sounds amazing…no brakes!!😀🇬🇧🇬🇧
A few bad China parts and some good old country boy American ingenuity this thing is amazing thanks for bringing me along on this video I can't wait to see more stuff I'm one of your new subscribers and I think all the ideas you have are Lessons Learned and also good for knowledge
What a cool projekt,love your el shifter !
Very very very cool and fun thanks 👍👍😊
"Go-Go Gadget- Cart", featuring the Fred Flintstone braking system. " From a sow's ear, to a silk purse" Another good time video ! Thumbs up 👍
I love it, what A cool project, Would love too see some gages on it.
You got more hair on your LEGS than I do!! Ain't no way I'd do 50mph in that thing!!! TOO MUCH COULD HAPPEN!!
Looks good MR.FABRICATOR!

The kart turned out great l think you done an awesome job l hope you will have a lot fun with it enjoyed the video
Woah!! That sucker is going to blow those bearings right out of those little wheels LOL. It's FAST! Sir you should be proud of that shifter! That's awesome!!!
frist time ive veiwed ur channel and wow just as bed as i am im in england uk
Man that looks fun! Great job!
Wow, what a machine. And when you put suspension on it you have your very own buggy.
That things cool man. Enjoy. 🤙🏻
This is awesome. I have a 1400 Suzuki Intruder that I've been thinking about converting to a go kart, but it's shaft driven and that he's me nervous. Lol
Great build, thanks for making the video!
That sound is so addictive.
U did one heck of a good job strai rips I like the way it sounds and looks good job man
Awesome project! You did yourself good!
That turned out awesome when can I hop on it lol.
Soon maybe.
That view is so cool when driving. Can you make some cold starts of it with that view?
The view of the steering wheel and speedometer is a cold start.
Awesome machine !! 👍
Awesome build !
Bravo! American engineering at its finest! I just wish you would have had a helmet on brother! After all you were test piloting a prototype! LOL!
Great job you did on that go cart
Keep up the good 👍 work
A-mazing!!! Love it.
I'm going to go back and see the other videos on this.
The other video are great yea go see them
I love your work keep it up
One awesome grocery getter
Carburetor's are constant velocity type and they are a real bitch to get synced! I'm worried that the next place to flex will be just forward of your seat but a piece of flat bar welded on edge under the tube like the old axle setup should stiffen that up! LOVE IT!!!! LOL!
These are not CV type but I do need to get them working better.
Another trick for increasing breaking power is to move the disk to the jack shaft and take advantage of the gear ratio. It’s what monster trucks do but there is up by the drive line. This way thy can run tiny rotors and calipers. But I’m not sure on your gear ratio but it looks like your stepping down to the dead end so that won’t works.
That cart is badass all the way man💯👍
Keep on doing your fix it videos that u do ! You are very funny, I highly enjoy your videos ! Specify the cars you werk on that are dead .
Great video. LOVE the electric shift system. Word of caution.. if you run it alot without mufflers you will burn a valve or two. Ask me how I know...
Nice work, it reminds me of one i started on a few years back I picked up a old go- cart with no engine and was thinking a 883 harley davidson engine would make it go just haven't got around to it
That thing is sick
Excellent!
This is NOT a Go Cart, it's a Mini-Dragster!! :)
That cart is as cool as $h!t....!! How many hours have you got in it, and will you be adding updates as this lil beast evolve...?? Man that looks like fun...!! I'm going to ask my mom... o_O...?!?! I mean my wife if I can build one, even though I already know that her answer is already "NO.!!!" Awesome job Buddy....!! I can't wait not to have one...!!
You should be able to shift without using the clutch. And are you using oil specifically for motorcycles? If not that could by the shifter issues
Pretty awesome
Man you are crazy...can I have a turn? lol Looks like a boat load of fun.
can't believe you can get up to highway speed!!
HOLY @#$&* THIS THING IS AMAZING!!!!!
Man that is awesome put a helmet on and open it up I want to see the top speed
I ain't 18 and crazy anymore!
You gonna let me drive it again 🤣😂
Yeah no.
Awesome!
a place call erri cable in hesperia ca makes awesome cables. It is a mom and pop place and they stand behind there stuff and not made of a million dollars either
We need to do that
Love it but that front end needs some upgrading. Gonna be painful if those flimsy spindles break.
If you only knew the beating those spindles have endured!
Nothing spells hospital better lmao!!
Think it would look and handle a bit better with a longer front axle and bigger wheels at the front as it is it resembles a dragster but if you want better handling I would set it up like an f1 car that way you get handling and speed and of course would be safer
That is to cool ❤
Man you are having to much fun😂❤
Oh hell yeah
justa growd up kid ! 👍
Yes siree!
cool project..can you tell me what solenoid did you use ? thanks
It's just a door popper solenoid off amazon.
@@ThisNThatGarage thank you for the answer. Can i use the solenoid from the electric starter? From a car i mean
@@ThisNThatGarage also, can you find neutral with this system?
SUPERB
I was watching another video where someone replaced the factory air box with those individual air filter and they were causing the drivability issues!
Something to do with the way air flow enters the carb!
Yeah I've heard that but not sure I believe it.
Chad use the clutch or brake cable on the Yamaha that your friend gave you, for the clutch cable on the cart.
I believe it was too short if I remember right.
You are amazing! To make that kart& do what it does, classic redneck engineering! Really enjoy your videos, love your sense of humor& the content is very interesting, keep up the good work! Between you, vice grip garage&mortske repair I stay entertained, thank you Chad!
That what-not is hard to REMOVE SOMETIMES 🤔😳😳🤣
Doesn't the engine vibration break the jack shaft?
Not sure why it would. 🤷♂️
How do u go finding neutral with the electronic shifter ?
I don't normally but sometimes get lucky with hitting the button real quick.
Love it😀😀😀😀
Name it LIFE INSURANCE!!!

Wow!
wish the front tires were a little larger
59 probably feels pretty scary I'm sure. You should check out a channel called...rather be welding. He built a kart with a snowmobile engine. He can't keep the front wheels on the ground.
multi-tasking I would have had a wreck
Well dome you turn. Engineer on us you are a B.M.F Award on inventions my friend attack boy !!! .
Whom pow..! Pes
