Charles talkin about never being on the leaderboard made me think it would be cool to pull all the projects out and have a hot lap jam of sorts, see what times improve with Charles in the running. Not to mention all the extra experience you guys have running that track surely we’ll see a shake up
The three of you are a perfect mix of good times. I always look forward to your videos cause it sure brightens my day. John, Ike, and Charles are just three damn good guys which makes this channel what it is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Big build idea for the future: a dedicated recovery rig. Either like a flat bed that tilts with a winch, or maybe a tow crane arm. It should be heavy, slow, 4x4, and have at least 2 seats so you can give the recovered person a ride. I would love to see it.
I had a Dingo when I was a kid. My old man got it for 25 bucks off the side of the road. It had a Tecemseh that he was barely able to get running. It never would idle in the cold weather; the pull starter broke so many times, but I had a blast with that go kart. I would love to find a deal like this one that you guys found! Great video, and brought back a lot of good memories.
Those old Tecumseh Engines, In the air filter housing had a tab you could move around for cold weather, Took me a long time before I realized what it was actually for. But I removed it all together and what a world of difference it made.
Heck of a deal. Best kart deal I ever found was a 2 seat Manco with a 6hp Tecumseh, AND a new in box Predator 212...for $300 bucks. Swapped on the Pred and gave it a spit shine......enjoyed it for the summer....and sold it for $600.
Ok guys. You have officially levelled up to Dukes of Hazzard status with me here in Canada. When I was a very young kid and I heard the theme song for The Dukes of Hazzard start playing on our 10 inch black and white 12 volt tv (we had no electricity) I would run like a child on fire to get into the living room to start watching it. When I was scrolling through my TH-cam subscriptions to see if anything new from the channels I subscribe to had come out I say Cars And Cameras highlighted which means you posted a new vid. Well holy shit shit Batman, I got stupid excited and planted my middle aged ass into my wildly oversized and stupid comfortable recliner and started watching :). Thanks to all of you on and off camera for doing what you do. It truly makes me happy and brings some peace to a racing mind when I get to watch new episodes. Take care, keep safe and thanks again from Canada.
Uh oh I bet you're going to blame inflation which is fake there's no inflation happening it's called greed corporations who are making record profits want to continue making record profits and so instead of selling the goods at the same price which they're making money at they increase the price of it and claim it's from inflation and cost of materials but that's a lie because their profits show that they're making record profits
I bought a run down single seat Yerf Dog 32001 with full suspension for $40 from a neighbor last month. The A arms were bent as if they had hit trees at full throttle. No motor, and the axle is nearly rusted all the way through. All four shocks were seized. And someone brush painted it green, and then red over top of that. It's in sad shape, but it has so much potential. Currently stripping the entire frame to bare metal and priming it for paint. Got the rear swing arm and roll bar sealed and ready. And bought two new A arms which need primed. My nephews have stage 1 Predator 212s on their gokarts, and they both hit about 40 mph. I either want a Predator 212 Ghost or a Predator 420. I want it to be a trail kart capable of at least 50 mph.
You guys have inspired me to dig out my old go cart that I bought 25 years ago I’m working on getting it going I bought a Honda engine for 50 bucks used but it runs well and has a live axle and originally just had a centrifugal force clutch on it I was thinking about switching over to a torque converter all depends on cash flow
Word of advice for cutting woods trails I have cut miles !!!!! if you think it's wide enough make it 3 feet wider on both sides you'll need it,and take a 4 wheeler and go cut the trail in with a bigger machine before the go carts !! It will soften up the ruts and make short burms for the turns the go carts washout alot no weight!!, open up the foliage around the trail so you can see a corner ahead 😉 it looks awesome out there, that's my favorite time cutting in new trails,!!!
Understand the important of a budget build and certainly nothing wrong with a pre stretch racing chain. If you want to go the extra mile… O-ring, x-ring chain. Will hold up to 450 dirt bikes no problem even. Will stretch very minimally after install and first few rides but after that initial small small stretch you’re never stretching it again. And it’s less “janky” doesn’t waddle around as much.
Great $50 buy Carson!!! If you use the trail by the pond, I predict at some point someone will end up in the pond. Be careful. I look forward to seeing more content with the new trails.
Excellent 👍 Episode ! I'll title it "back to basics" since it reminds me of how the channel started yrs back . Like seeing more episodes like this . Never too old for go-karts 😎 cheers fellas
Good tires on the Big valve dingo... and go!!! Or do a video of a couple of you fast go carts on 2 or 3 different style tires to show just how important tires are!
$50 go kart . Definitely cant beat that !! Great video guys !! Charles is coming for the whole leaderboard 😂 Ya'll might as well take all the " OGs " out and redo the whole time slots for the new year !! 🤔💭💯
The dingo. The kart that got me hooked. Still got one. Stock 212. 26 mph of fun. I'd pay up to $750 for one of these without hesitation. Drift happy yard kart.
Lol, that Dingo HAULS! Not bad for $50, a belt, a chain, and an cable! Edit: Also LOL! I looked at how that Dingo was going and thought to myself "That's gonna be a 1.02" And what do you know, it was a 1.01.95 for John! And congrats to Charles on that 1 minute flat!
I've had 2 dingos, they are great cheap fun carts. A few things need to be added lights, seatbelts, extra seat cushion. Also would like to say they climb hills very well too!!! Enjoy!!!
maybe some long-ish travel suspension kit/build for Dingo someday? It would benefit it so much imo, both for preventing from ruining the spine, and for reducing overal bumpiness and hanging onto terrain even more, so could also improve laptimes.
I would love to see one of you run multiple lap times with different tire pressures. I know on my 3 and 4 wheelers, psi makes a huge difference. I run 4 lbs or less most of the time. Also completely changes the ride comfort.
Picked up an old Dingo clone of some kind couple months ago for $100 off marketplace... and I had to fight for it!! What a heap. The tires were replaced with garden tractor ones but they couldn't figure out how to seat the beads... so they used like a CASE of white silicon which of course didn't work. Oh and the rear axle bearings are all toast lol.
Nice find! I have a Dingo I picked up a couple years ago. All the wire was just hanging when I bought it and I don't know where any of it goes. I haven't been able to find an accurate diagram either.
I wish I could finda decent FRAME for $50! I could do SO MUCH with a gokart like that! Even a genuine Comet? My big brother's old Rupp Roadster II had one of them on it! It's great to see Sir Charles in the top ten, ON A $50 DINGO, with a Predator 212! Good luck at the race this weekend! I'm sure with the bikes you've built, and your preparation...it'll be FINE!
As a classic VW owner, I'd like to see a VW Beetle shell on a Dingo! Baja style is cool, but a Bubble Bug non the less. :D @CarsandCameras. Working headlights would be a bonus!
man im going to the deer woods this weekend and going to miss out on texas dang it man one day i will make it to a event . great job as always guys keep it coming.
Constructive Criticism: The wood bridge on the new trail has a few flaws that should be addressed. 1) The material is wooden planks, with in essence a polished surface. This presents a problem that will be magnified once any moisture is present on the surface. It will be slippery even when dry and tripled so when wet. ... 2) The bridge width is far too narrow and an un-needed obstacle to an effective track layout. Sliding off the edge and into a very sheer bank, basically a wall, presents too far a danger to the driver and equipment. ... I look back to the bridge on the main track and remember that damage that was caused when, I think Ike tore out the rearend hitting a rock. I also am reminded of the pretty good damage John took rolling the Chaotic Coffin. Any such accident such as that on or near the new bridge would be significantly more sever to driver and equipment..... Have fun stay safe and always remember ... SEND'RRRR and SEND'R HARD ... :)
We see bits and pieces of the GP track in vids. Would you mind filming a (relatively) slow run of the course in one cut? This way we can experience the GP track for ourselves. 🙏
Love the videos, pretty sweet deal on that Dingo! You all got me into go karts and mini bikes, I just recently got a Baja Heat mini bike. Didn't pay a dime for it, I traded for it and the guy even threw in a few new parts he'd gotten for it. It has a stock Jiangdong GX200 6.5HP clone engine which I got running, the bike is in excellent shape and is almost ready to ride!
Carsandcameras crew I'm calling you out bring your fastest dingo...my dingo has a rather small 440cc duromax on the back fully stock engine and a big torque converter stock gearing
Charles talkin about never being on the leaderboard made me think it would be cool to pull all the projects out and have a hot lap jam of sorts, see what times improve with Charles in the running. Not to mention all the extra experience you guys have running that track surely we’ll see a shake up
I agree
That's a great idea!! Or even have all the guys run each project! See who can get the fastest times on them! Could potentially be a full series!
Indeed a perfect idea
Are you also getting a text from cars and cameras saying you’ve been selected as a winner I don’t wanna be scammed
problem with this is they salvage parts off different build so half the build aren't functional.
I like these budget go kart episodes. There is a lot of good deals out there if you know where to look.
The three of you are a perfect mix of good times. I always look forward to your videos cause it sure brightens my day. John, Ike, and Charles are just three damn good guys which makes this channel what it is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That is a really good idea, especially with all the collabs and events!
That is what they bought the kei truck for but haven't done any since that one video
I haven't seen it in a while but do they still have the kabota?
I had a Dingo when I was a kid. My old man got it for 25 bucks off the side of the road. It had a Tecemseh that he was barely able to get running.

Love the dingo stuff. I had a first gen dingo with 8hp briggs & 40 series torque converter. it was a blast.
I agree with you guys on that chain break tool. It's the nicest one I've ever had.
‘This might be the best $50 go kart we ever bought’ gets my attention. Haven’t been too into the drag kart series but this is up my alley. 👍
Loved the episode and Charles makes the leader board.
Heck of a deal. Best kart deal I ever found was a 2 seat Manco with a 6hp Tecumseh, AND a new in box Predator 212...for $300 bucks. Swapped on the Pred and gave it a spit shine......enjoyed it for the summer....and sold it for $600.

Revisiting the idea of a $50 go kart after the year of inflation!
Uh oh I bet you're going to blame inflation which is fake there's no inflation happening it's called greed corporations who are making record profits want to continue making record profits and so instead of selling the goods at the same price which they're making money at they increase the price of it and claim it's from inflation and cost of materials but that's a lie because their profits show that they're making record profits
That’s classic. It’s still only a few dollars worth of scrap.
I JUST BAUGHT THE SAME KART FOR 125 cad . but t has no motor and is in worse shape haha
Does this I nclude the gas to haul it and get it running lmfao
Thanks Biden
Definetly more Dingo content.... love them ole Dingos...
Great video as always fellas.
We need more Dingo content! We smile, you smile, everyone smiles watching and playing with Dingos!

I'm a simple man. I see Dingo, I click like. Great find guys!

Love the new C&C Rally track 😁 Can't wait to see some builds ripping around it 👍🏻
Love the fact that charles puts on a hardhat when he doesn't sneed it
Excellent 👍 Episode ! I'll title it "back to basics" since it reminds me of how the channel started yrs back . Like seeing more episodes like this . Never too old for go-karts 😎 cheers fellas
Love the budget projects.
Love these budget build videos! Proper CarsandCameras bread and butter
Edit: Will you be doing a video for the mini bike endurance race?
The look on Ike’s face is priceless!
You guys are always so lucky!!! Bare bones frames around here with broken welds go for 200 minimum
I was thinking the same thing. I can't even find a mini bike frame for $50 in my area. Much less a whole go-kart.
sweet deal love the spider crawling out after engine got warm.
Oh what a deal. Yinz guys rock. Keep up the great work and I will keep on watching
A fellow Pennsylvanian?
Good job getting in the Top 10 Charles. Great content guys, loving the channel.
That track is all about carrying speed and the Dingo on good tires carries speed. It needs a hopped up engine and some suspension to be a real rocket!
Good tires on the Big valve dingo... and go!!! Or do a video of a couple of you fast go carts on 2 or 3 different style tires to show just how important tires are!
Great list. TH-cam's zooming update is really useful
I love that gokart! I used to ride one that had a roll cage and basically pool noodles and zip ties for “protection”. Lol😅
I need one for $50 right now also. Great find and buy guys
One of many best video's showing simplicity, team work and passion. DVD:)
$50 go kart . Definitely cant beat that !! Great video guys !! Charles is coming for the whole leaderboard 😂 Ya'll might as well take all the " OGs " out and redo the whole time slots for the new year !! 🤔💭💯
Great review, write me up 👆✉️
Charles with the HAMMER DOWN ! 👍👍
I have a challenge for you guys - Build a vehicle that can drive into that pond , cross it and then drive out .
The dingo. The kart that got me hooked. Still got one. Stock 212. 26 mph of fun. I'd pay up to $750 for one of these without hesitation. Drift happy yard kart.
Lol, that Dingo HAULS! Not bad for $50, a belt, a chain, and an cable!
Edit: Also LOL! I looked at how that Dingo was going and thought to myself "That's gonna be a 1.02" And what do you know, it was a 1.01.95 for John! And congrats to Charles on that 1 minute flat!
Always love the videos keep it up‼️🙌🏾
I love Dingo content. They just look soooooo fun!
Absolutely more Dingo content
I really like this type of content. My favorite! Keep up the good work guys!
Yes! Best $50 spent You guys ripped it on this one!👍🏼👍🏼
I've had 2 dingos, they are great cheap fun carts. A few things need to be added lights, seatbelts, extra seat cushion. Also would like to say they climb hills very well too!!! Enjoy!!!
Thats a great steal for fitty dollhairs. Great fix on the clutch there Eyezac
I’ve been waiting 4 days to watch y’all again!! Can’t wait!
Cool to see Grave Ninja still at #6.... I still remember that one at #1... That was a GOOD episode.
Those Dingos are legit. I'd love to see you guys modify one with a very simple suspension setup.
The Dingo ate my baby.
I agree with the extra belt I never ride without a spare and it’s saved me a couple times
maybe some long-ish travel suspension kit/build for Dingo someday? It would benefit it so much imo, both for preventing from ruining the spine, and for reducing overal bumpiness and hanging onto terrain even more, so could also improve laptimes.
Love the Dingo!
Damn nice $50-150 bucks ever spent! Including parts, but from such a Manco Dingo.....Smiles.....? Priceless! 😉
I would love to see one of you run multiple lap times with different tire pressures. I know on my 3 and 4 wheelers, psi makes a huge difference. I run 4 lbs or less most of the time. Also completely changes the ride comfort.
We love your videos thank you for taking us along.
Thanks for mentioning GO POWER SPORTS so frequently John .
We might have forgotten who sponsors your channel if you didn't mention it EVERY 5 SECONDS.
I love these cheap go kart build vids they bring me back XD
Picked up an old Dingo clone of some kind couple months ago for $100 off marketplace... and I had to fight for it!! What a heap. The tires were replaced with garden tractor ones but they couldn't figure out how to seat the beads... so they used like a CASE of white silicon which of course didn't work. Oh and the rear axle bearings are all toast lol.
the dingo's just always seemed geared just right with the 212cc's and the sprockets. mine is always a rocket !
Nice find! I have a Dingo I picked up a couple years ago. All the wire was just hanging when I bought it and I don't know where any of it goes. I haven't been able to find an accurate diagram either.
I love all your projects

It was a pleasure seeing that treasure.😮
Check the tire pressure, Those tire don't need much and it will cut the bouncing down.
You guys need to build a super dingo, full suspension, all the bells and whistles! I bet it'll be #1
This video was fun to watch. I know you have made a hundred similar but it was fun none the less.
Great review, write me up 👆✉️
man im going to the deer woods this weekend and going to miss out on texas dang it man one day i will make it to a event . great job as always guys keep it coming.
I love the dingo content!😍👍
Great review, write me up 👆✉️
Ooo, new trail! Cool.
Awesome video guys
I have that exact cart! It's been under a tarp on my parents' farm for the past ten years though. Man, I need to go see if it's worth saving.
I still have my old Dingo in the garage, we've had it since the early 90's! Needs a bit of work now but never selling it!
Yes more dingo content
love the dingos go Charles.
Loved it!
More Dingo!!
Charles is the cars and camera stig lol. Love the videos..
Yes a new episode!

Good vid! But I've seen lots worse than that Kart going for $200-$400. Cameraman got a deal! 👌
What a good buy
We see bits and pieces of the GP track in vids. Would you mind filming a (relatively) slow run of the course in one cut? This way we can experience the GP track for ourselves. 🙏
The 50 dollar dingo needs to be built into a absolute monster. Tilly 225RS will be a good start.
"Is there a leak?"
"No, it's just on fire"
It'll be fine at its finest
Right tyres and tyre preasure to suit your surroundings is always important
More dingo! Stretch one by about 5" and Weld it to make it more comfortable for an adult. Also try to put some sort of a suspension system on a dingo
Love the videos, pretty sweet deal on that Dingo! You all got me into go karts and mini bikes, I just recently got a Baja Heat mini bike.

In the video when u guys r checking to see if the pulley was straitened out I think a cricket or something bailed from inside the engine
Maybe a spider? What did u all see
Carsandcameras crew I'm calling you out bring your fastest dingo...my dingo has a rather small 440cc duromax on the back fully stock engine and a big torque converter stock gearing
great stuff guys thanks
Charles doing the most dangerous thing I've ever seen on CNC emptying the vacuum cleaner
Awsome video guy's.....well dun !
Love the videos man
Nice work boyz.
