      I feel like he doesn't need to go through all those retakes just to get some nitpicky wording right. He could just correct himself and keep going instead of having to start over endless times... Imo it wouldn't make the videos worse. -Me and my coworkers allways have fun whenever someone makes a hillarious wordsalad. Some of them even become catchfrases or permanent expressions. It is just spice on life! :)

    I think your 1 of the only karting youtubers that hasn't built their selves a nice big workshop, yet your 1 of the only youtubers I watch, apart from Grind Hard Plumbing inc, who can & does fabricate all their own parts. Which is amazing to watch, especially from 1 so young. Your fabrication skills have gone from strength to strength where as some of the others I won't mention have got worse or at least not improved.wot so ever. If anyone on UA-cam building go karts disserves to treat themselves to an awesome fully loaded workshop, its you. . Luv ya work, thanks for sharing all these years . .

It could solve a lot of the limited space while trying to get castor/camber without bump steer issues. I'd love to see your take on the geometry in a build. If you used something like the can-am suspension on this it could free up some space to mount the brakes so they're not taking up precious real estate.

  • @MrCiO0011

    I think that chain drive is actually better because it has less drag than a drive shaft, it weighs less and allows you to build some nice suspensions in less space on a small vehicle. Don't mind what people say, just keep doing your stuff and having fun, at the end of the day they are watching you for this. 😉

    This is a sweet build! Lots of pro-modified race cars have the engine and the driveline behind the center of the front axle for weight distribution. I would try to get the engine behind the center line as much as possible without being uncomfortable. After watching further i see the engine is back more. This is becoming a high interest to me! Maybe try rotating the expansion chamber 180° and see if itll work better that way.

You could’ve left the engine on the side though it reminds me of a Marshal micro sprint. It basically had a swing arm that the engine mounted on and then it was a straight axle That had a birdcage and links on the other side and then use torsion bars for springs.

    When you are looking at that style of drills. you want to look for drills that have vents. where the air is drawn in right near the battery. and exits out towards the front of the drill. and that way it helps keep the battery cooler. and you don't cover up the vents with your hands. and more and more drill manufactures are building them this way. at the end of the video you showed everyone just how difficult it is to get all the production and editing right for these videos. especially when you're the only one handling all the aspects of making these videos. and that includes camera positioning, lighting, sound quality, not to mention directing yourself. and post production electronic production and editing. I have mentioned it before about your music. I have to say it's the best music to put alongside these types of videos. I have heard on YT it's not too loud. but yet loud enough. and the tunes are progressive enough but not weird. and when it comes to outtakes? it seems like yours are pretty equal to other videos on YT. of course that varies from video to video. so over all I would say that along with your machinist skills and your fabrication skills that are very impressive. you're also a really good videographer.

    Feel like the wheels should start with some negative camber. Also the motor could just go forward a couple inches and drop down like 5. Then you can wrap the chamber around the central member. Then you can drop the steering behind the motor. You can make longer drag links off of the spindles to meet up and or make the pivot from the steering column variable via a u joint er something. Hell you could put a couple planetary gears on around the steering shaft and run 2 u joints directly to the spindles! Eh you'll figure it out. You always do!

    probably to lated, but what if you cut the expansion chamber at the head, then rotate the chamber 90degrees (Clockwise as you are looking at the engine from the front) and have the pipe on the clutch side of the engine... assuming you are putting a clutch on the left of the steering wheel (as you are sitting in the seat). this would move the big chamber up and give you more room.

    Probably too late to suggest stuff, but the BEST thing you can do if you want side-to-side articulation without chain jumping would be to build a de-dion axle rear suspension and use an ATV rear sprocket and brake hub, but building your own carrier for that on the chassis. You WILL need CV's for de-dion to work properly, but this is the best 1 sprocket, 1 brake solution unless you want to have an actual differential action, at which point IDK what to tell you.

    try to raise the shock absorbers straight up and put the engine between them. This will make the engine move more forward and you will have more leg room and handlebars.

    If you install the front shocks as you said you will exseurt undue twisting action on the arms, you might think about that a little more

    I like the idea for the new project and can`t wait to see more on it but you are going to have to make the front of the frame wider and the A arms shorter/smaller or a different type of front arm all together to fit the engine up front im not telling you what to do but you would have more room for you feet and pedals and such if you did. see you in part two 😀

    As long as you keep the volume of the expansion pipe roughly the same you should be able to adjust it, the angles can be modified as far as I know.
