Dude, I’ve worked in fabrication for years. You have a real talent. I’m impressed with your skills at such a young age.
This cart is looking awesome!! it looks really aggressive without any round fairings!
Epic build love it🔥
Oh man, I just love that. You dabble in precision. Welcome to the exclusive club. It's been 6 months since I started my latest build, and I'm half-way done with the rear suspension, and drive components. It's a slower process to end up with small tolerances, and immeasurable differences between mirrored LH & RH parts, but it's the only way to go if you have the curse. It's a blessing really though. Thanks for sharing this wonderful build! Jesus loves you!
Thank you for your kind words!
ha ha, Been working on my lil project for a year and half now but mine is using the drivetrain from a 4x4 400cc atv. Gonna have 4 wheel independent suspension and steering sitting on 26 inch wheels. Way too much machining, testing, and doing over till it works just right.
Looks awesome man. You will make it far on UA-cam! Keep on building man.
Thank you Greg!!

Thanks for the 20k 🎉 Part 4 is out! Have a wonderful afternoon and God Bless! Please watch till the end
Yo hope yah feel better bro and the karts looks like a Indi-shifter kart remix. I think it cool and I give it 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟&👍😎✌
Be blessed Jah Rastafari Selassie I Jah
Kart looks great!🔥👀💪👌 Can't wait for next episode!👀👌
Great video it's looking good and get well soon
Congrats on passing 10K
You are really building up subs right now.
Keep up the good work
congrats on 10k. i want to do go kart vids, but i cant afford any, in my area they are like 400 on marketplace. but i might get a moped this summer/fall.
I am impressed with all the knowledge you have for such a young guy . Read what everyone says to you and don't take it as a knock but learn from people that may k is a bit more then you. You have a bright future ahead of yourself keep up the great work
Just a suggestion think about moving your stearing column back from the front. On any impact you’ll have it go through your face :( on most carts they have it set back so the front most brace that will hit any thing on a crash will buckle many inches before the steering column even gets touched
Keep it up bro 👍👍 there's alot of kids your age that can't even use common hand tools, look forward to seeing it finished it looks great so far.
Nice job on 10k! Be sure to remmeber us little guys when u at 1mil!
😂😂thats alot of subscribers
@@VasilyBuilds just subscribed
Oustanding work. Love that you are plugging and rosette welding all the joints, and your technique for getting the front end geometry was killer!
Thank you! It's definitely not perfect
Your building a proper gokart in a proper way. I like that
Really digging your build so far . . Yes the roll bar does look a little but hi right now. But after you get some more work done I'm guessing it will all start to come together . . Keep up the great work . . Godbless ! !
That thing is gunna be so sick!..it looks great!..congratulations on hitting 10g!..u earned it brother!
Thank you GKGF. I hope you get momentized very soon
Man! That is looking sweet! Makes me want to build one! Love the KX250 engine! Lots of power band and high end screaming! Can't wait to see the finished product! Keep up the good work young man!
Thank you! this one needs a rebuild
Man you keep on building I'll keep on liking
reminds me of older F1. your build quality is the best I've seen so far with the go power sports stuff, granted I've only seen a few channels but still
For fabbing off the floor you are doing a hell of a job. That is a good looking kart.
Thank you!
Nice work so far, those front arms holding the spindles are cool, look good for a ridget setup, i also like the idea of the engine being behind you, not a big fan on the roll bar but who cares, its all about person preference
I can't wait for the next upload on this. Dude you've got taste, loving the design. I'd go even further and design an enclosure something simular to the kart Cross, that would be sick. Think I'm going to build one this year as my years project
Looks absolutely amazing
Growing quick man, congratulations. I'm liking the build so far cant wait to see it finished, it will be fun to watch you ride it.
Nice design love how your mind works engineering keep up the great videos
You need a cross brace across the steering or the side rails of the frame will warp UP & IN....
Vasily! Keep working the magic! Keep up the good work!
Looking sick Buddy! I don’t know if it’s camera angle or what but I would almost like the front wheels a bit more forward and a tad narrower than the rear. Just my preference in look and feel of a cart. I am sure you will be playing with the design a bunch as you continue. Great build though. Your doing something I wish I would have done years ago.
Thanks! Yea front is around 3 1/2 feet wide. Ill have to tune the length in the rear for my liking
this cart is looking mad as cant wait for the next video
Bro your channel is BLOWING UP👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Can’t wait to be one of those guys who can say they’ve been here before 10k when you hit 1 mill and more
I’m always interested in how people do work in small spaces. Looks awesome dude.
I love the wide stance it looks sick I wanna build one very similar maybe bigger tires for dirt track style racing
Great video! Can’t wait until it’s finished
Appreciate it bro!
I like your work style. From a 40 Year veteran metal fabricator. A workbench would be helpful or maybe a couple of sawhorses and a piece of plywood or metal.
really nice build, easy fix the backwards steering. design looks great!
That build is SWEET!. I think you should put a support bar on the roll cage.
Nice job bro at least you can say you have built it yourself I'm so proud of you keep it up.
Love seeing young dudes getting it done 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 keep pushing forward
Good choice of motor, loved my KX250's. Like my YZ a tad more though.
Thank you! Out of the 250 class do you say the RM is the best in power or the YZ?
@@VasilyBuilds It all depends on what year. The last year of the KX's (07-08) they had lots of power but it was high in the rpm's. The YZ and RM had the best "useable" power. Never cared for CR250's, only fixed them never rode them.
Loving that frame design. Keep up that great work and wow the artistic ability is showing nicely. Just a heads up, your steering will be off in tight corners as it sits. If you know the issue already with the angle of the steering arm and how to find the angle than awesome, but if you have trouble with it just hit me up.
it´s look awsome! after that project your welding level will be over 9000👨🏽🔧
Haha
Ty for the videos love the billed looking for next videos builds looking good 😁😁😁😁😋
Awesome build dude, i like the look of you frame.!!
Thank you!!

I am mad that I there isnt another video out on this shifter kart because the videos are so entertaining. Although, I totally understand and keep up the amazing work.
That thing is gonna be awesome and it’s gonna handle good to with that camber and how low it sits
Always a great vid from you!
the front end looks amazing
You are going to be big in a couple of months. Great build.
Looks good and you fixed the Bering
You should really be proud of such an awesome build!
Looks amazing bro do what you feel dont let other people take away your positive actions
Looking good I personally like the way it looks
Oh man it's becoming so sick. It reminds me of a mini top fuel car.
Another 👍 for the vasily custom team !!!!!!
that will be a nasty cart when your done thats a gnarly engine keep up the good work
Your follower from Egypt is great work
That's a sharp looking kart! Keep up the killer videos!
Looks absolutely SICK dude !!!
Thank you!
I really like your design.Can’t wait to see the rest
Fairplay to ya for going at this project.prop off
your channel is about to blow up!
Dude this thing's gonna rip with that 250 on it!! Great job!!
Can't wait to see how far this channel grows it'll be big in no time love the vids keep up the good work
Cool build! I can't wait to see it running.
Really like the videos. Thing looks mean, and that much thought was put into your design. Can't imagine any naysayers, but as long as you love it and have fun building and riding the thing, that's what really matters. Keep up the uploads and the hard work, you obviously have a very bright future ahead of you. 👍👍👍
O ring chains aren't just for off roading, they were a tremendous innovation helping out the on road motorcycles. Chains only work right when properly lubricated and the O rings helped out with that since most people don't properly maintain their chains.
Will there be any horsepower losses?
From an O ring chain? No, all of the big superbikes use O ring chains, they wouldn't use them if that was a problem. Poorly maintained chains can have all kinds of HP losses, the O ring chain helps to avoid this.
Okay, I also assume an O ring chain will tolerate heat more than an non oring
Almost every new chain drive bike sold has an O ring chain from the factory, they wouldn't do that if there was any downside at all.
That Gonna Rip Decent Cant Wait Next Video
I absolutely love the wide stance. I’m going to try to widen the one I’m rebuilding.

man i cant wait to see this thing run :3 amazing job vasily you did it again :)
Appreciate it!
Go cart is looking sweet!! Keep up the good work
Looks super mean man, The steering build up was smart with the temporary bar, but I love the nose in look of the front, looks like a shark head
Appreciate it brother!!
Yeah pro move!
That's coming out real nice! I for one like the roll bar and since you had a helmet on when you figured the height I think you know what you're doing here and have weighed the risks and found them acceptable 👍. I can't tell for sure, but it looks like you may be getting some dimpling on your pipe when you do a sharp bend from the rollers, we cut a short piece of 3"pipe in half and lay each half on the pipe to be bent where it contacts the roller on each side and have done 90 degree bends without the dimpling. Congrats on 10K!
Very clever! I'm going to have to try that out. yes I do get dimpling on some of the extreme bends
really wish I could build something like this, looks like a shit load of fun! Awesome build bro
Awesome vid. Congrats on 10k
I really wish I knew how to weld! This is awesome! Looks great.
I like yoir structural design and the rigidity, co lared to,others I saw before., i also want a back cover, to shield me from the motor, a front metal cover for my feet, like an oblong and put a number ( as if racing ). Looks cool !! Excellent job there, bro !!
Great job looks great, I can't wait to see upcoming videos
this is what a grown up is, doing cool shit like this
I told you lol your channel is already blowing up. your gaining fast!
Stunning work!
It's not going to go the way you want when you turn the steering wheel. But I really love the frame
Yea I have to fix it
And, please don't use that rod as your steering shaft...it doesn't look strong enough. It'll likely flex and bend...worse, it's not thick enough to handle the torsion load when you turn the wheel and will make it twist. Go ahead and buy a proper steering shaft from GoPowerSports or other race kart supply shop. With that engine power you're going to have to be sure you have full control.
This think is coming together great! Make sure to paint it right after you test it because if you see some of rather b welding's cards, all the bars are pitted from rust. I think the rollbar looks great congrats on 10K! Your channel really skyrocketed!
thank you john. will make sure it is painted I hope your channel does well too
Thank you!
Fantastic work once again 👍😎
So won't to build this kart, will find out how much the parts cost, but first will finish the worlds fastest stand up petrol scooter/go-ped first! Very impressed with your build m8!!!

Even though it might be redundant I do hope you add a rollcage.
