It was really nice to see your father in the video. Alot of thanks to him and mom from this viewer for allowing you to use the property for your channel over the years.
Matt from Ohio is a real, stand up and awesome guy. We need more like him. I hope to make it in 2020 and hopefully meet him. Thanks for sharing the good times guys.
Cherish these moments with your dad I lost my dad to cancer 4 years ago he was a great man that also enjoyed stuff like this I'm thinking trike for the new 2 stroke engine
I did this when I was 11 years old back in 1982 lol. Ancient snowmobile, two long thick bolts, my ancient mini bike wheels and an arc welder lol. I put the bolts through the wheels and welded them to the stubs where the springs attached on the sled. It had boogies so there were no sliders to overheat. Tons of fun in the summer and I got a LOT of looks driving it down the roads lol. Thanks for bringing that memory back to me.
ghp did the same thing with twice snowmobile that was i think it was a yamaha 4 stroke supercharger and they welded grade 8 bolt to the front end and it held up well
As a dad of kids your age. Thank you for including us in your fun. What to do with it? Simple answer. Give it to dad for the next mayhem. Reliable Smooth He likes it.........Make it his. Clean it. Tune it. Give IT ! Love to see more of him with that "I'm still young enough to do this" Grin !!!!!!
My brother has a 1972 arctic cat lynx wearing the hood from a 73? Cheetah with a full wheel kit. It was an original, period correct after market which my uncle bought nos from the dealer for one of his arctic cat sleds back in 1980, and has had on one sled or another ever since. It's just such a cool machine! I have a lot of memories of riding it when I was a young teen. And its fast! With a rebuilt rupp pro 440 engine it will do about 130kmh and whips donuts like you wouldn't believe. The biggest problem is, being that it has no real suspension, they'll will tear over time with the kind of abuse this thing takes. This is why the kit has probably been on at least 20 sleds over the years.
No doubt your dad has been on them older sleds before or back in the day. You can see how he leans into the turns like he was and that was how you cornered on the old skinny sleds! That is awesome!
I think Dad was not in the mood for any bs until he saw that thing. Seeing him ride you could tell he was a ripper at some point years ago. LOL! And after the ride he felt 40 years younger and his face was lit up like the sun. Great video.
At a minibike drag race in ubly michigan last August i met 2 good ole boys from ohio who both had doodlebug frames and each had air cooled classic sled engines on them. Both bikes were ugly yet beautiful in their execution. The trick is to keep the clutch for the engine and make it fit and dont lean it in the turns. Such a machine is designed for drag race bullet applications only
I love your dad ! He is so laid back . After watching him rip the snow quad you need to get him in more “ special guest “ appearance ! He could be you biggest fan draw. At the very least treasure every day you get with family & friends ❤️
Snowmoquad is awesome. The smile on your dad's face was priceless lol. I really think the steering could use some work to make it turn a little better butnother than that it is really cool
All smiles when your Dad took the snowmoquad around the yard John! Keep that thing! Do something fun with it. I've always imagined doing that but never saw one actually done before.
Glad your Dad likes the SnowDevil. You should clean it up and put a new paint job on it , then give it to your dad to play with.... excellent Christmas gift.
I built one of these back in the 90's out of an old ski-doo. One thing you should do is add a dripper system to drip a solution of dish soap and water onto the sliders in the suspension. (Usually snow keeps them lubricated) it will attract dirt obviously, but it GREATLY reduces the drag on the track and the sliders don't wear as fast. Ice racers use this also when lake racing.
"Choke is like nos"...then it is running lean! Though I had assumed for it to ru well in the warm weather he would have had to put in smaller jets. If the jets are stock, then the carbs may have an issue because in winter a warmed up sled should bog down with the choke on, not run better.
Just figured it out....he removed the stock airbox and put on cone filters. That is allowing more air, leaning out the mixture even more than needed to run in warm weather. Probably needs larger main jets without the airbox.
Hay John enjoy every moment you get with your dad and never let anything go unsaid. I just lost my own father and I don't even have a video of him just a few pictures. Cherish every moment with him and your family because they can be gone tomorrow.
And dad's shirt even matches the blue of the snomoquad! I am glad you guys put mufflers on the cross cart; it would make ONE thing I've been right about, lol!
That is so cool! I can't wait to see how much trouble you guys can get into with that thing. I'm also looking forward to the things you do to it. Thanks, guys. Watching your dad get into that thing was really fun.
Awesome, just awesome. I was able to get my dad on my RM80 and then my YZ125G (that was it he was terrified when it hit) , some of my best memories ever. Great stuff
My family had a '93 indy xcr 440 that I always wanted to put wheels on... Cool to see what it would have looked like. You will need to replace the sliders soon with the abrasiveness of the dirt and sand. Also watch the temp... They are designed to be cooled by the snow/cold air hitting the running boards.
@@Hershel_777 lol exactly. he maybe older but he isn't dumb. and you don't bounce back as fast after a good wreck when you're older. Lol I member being 17 would flip a 4 wheeler get launched off get up flip it back over do it again lol now that shit hurts and bruised up for a week lmao
That was really cool of that dude Matt to give you guys that snowmoquad, your dad looked like he was having a blast on it he'll probably be sneaking it out for couple rides while you guys are at sema lol I know I would
5:17 - 5:30 The guy between John and Isaac looks like Isaac with facial hair. If he's not related, wow dude... Bada$$ machine though! Also hope to see the other engine on a build soon! You guys rock!
John, Your dad is really cool 😎. Funny thing is I was thinking of you guys when noticed a yerfdog on a scrappers truck headed for recycling. Frame was junk either wise I would have saved it.
So great to see someone with a cool dad . you know this means he has to at least say hi from time to time. as always a great video , tell dad we said hi .
Sounds like the tracks are slipping a little. John your Dad looked like he had a freaking blast. Isaac was also ripping it. Faithful Subscriber from Southeast Missouri. Car's and Cameras RULE
Now just think of how mean, oh i'd say about 1,000cc snowmobile engine on a buggy set up. y'all build cross cart,. So maybe a something for the mud, holes & hills?? Definitely balls to the wall build !!! Think about that build fellas,.. Idk but i thought about the Ducati engine on the crosscart. Paddle shift, 5-point harness. That'd be a gravedigger fo'sho' ;) good episode, keep at it!
Your dad's a saint for supporting your loud, smoky, smelly, dusty, landscape assaulting pursuits. Every kid and later adult should have that kind of support. I did, and I'm a better human for it. I'm doing my best to continue that legacy and I hope you do as well. Happy motoring fellas.
HUGE THANK YOU AGAIN TO MATT, THING THIS RIPS! Now what do we do with it??
Nitrous and asphalt setup for drag racing
Wash it first 🤣🤣🤣
Now do a performance 2 stroke build on its engine and make it drag stip ready
NOS
That front suspension/steering looks a little scary!!!! Would def. like to see you upgrade that!!!!!
This is one of those vids where I just caught my self smiling. I love that your Pops gets involved with what you love. Cherish these moments.
It was really nice to see your father in the video. Alot of thanks to him and mom from this viewer for allowing you to use the property for your channel over the years.
Legend has it, If you listen careful at night you can still hear dad riding. And it doesn't hurt the grass.
I’m fuckin deadddd!🤣🤣🤣
He can dodge bullets
Matt from Ohio is a real, stand up and awesome guy. We need more like him. I hope to make it in 2020 and hopefully meet him. Thanks for sharing the good times guys.
Best Dad ever. Matt is awesome... gotta love selfless folks.
Ike: "If you take it easy, it doesn't hurt the grass."
John's Dad: *ok, let's rip!*
He is the Boss there. 👍

Give it to dad so he's got a reasion to play with y'all
Every dad needs something he can get on a rip. I even built mine a mini bike
AT THOSE SPEEDS IT NEEDS A BETTER FRONT END AND HUBS
Seriously...I'm waiting for it to snap a front axle/hub and send him flying over the handlebars.
I was thinking the same thing. The can beef up the front end and really send it!
Keep an eye on those bearings in front hubs
ghp did the same thing with twice snowmobile that was i think it was a yamaha 4 stroke supercharger and they welded grade 8 bolt to the front end and it held up well
It kinda looks like it’s alway’s gonna break...
What does it look like if it does?
"would you like to go for a ride" immediately responds "yeah I'll try it yeah" that's awesome.
I noticed that too, it was the fastest yea I have ever seen lol...
2 stroke power rocks!
Heak right!!!!!!
At 5:20 I'm like "IKE looks weird " It was his brother.
Ikes brother, bike.
@@bobmarley5551 IKE and Bike love it
Ike has a brother??
Ike and ike
Great to see dad enjoying your passion for motor sports . guessing you got the bug from dear old dad?
As a dad of kids your age. Thank you for including us in your fun.
What to do with it?
Simple answer. Give it to dad for the next mayhem.
Reliable
Smooth
He likes it.........Make it his.
Clean it.
Tune it.
Give IT !
Love to see more of him with that "I'm still young enough to do this" Grin !!!!!!
Y’all need to start a new series called “dad rides”
THIS!
this is underated

i want to see what your gonna do with that 2 stroke engine you got an mini mayhem😂👏
Minibike

I seen it on their IG
William Stamper wow that's awesome
Vasily Custom Builds pretty good engine right
I love your dad ! He is so laid back . After watching him rip the snow quad you need to get him in more “ special guest “ appearance ! He could be you biggest fan draw.
At the very least treasure every day you get with family & friends ❤️
you have the most dad looking dad i've ever seen. It's great
It was great seeing your dad having a fun time.
Snowmoquad is awesome. The smile on your dad's face was priceless lol. I really think the steering could use some work to make it turn a little better butnother than that it is really cool

You have a Great Dad. Happy Father's Day to him!
Man, guys... This was totally fun. Great to see the enjoyment from ole pops!
Matt is a very generous man wow, an your dad is cool an should test ride more often 👍
Aaaaay! SNOWMOQUAD for the win!
Your dad was having a blast!!!
Your Dad thoroughly enjoyed that. Great video!!!!!
Glad your Dad likes the SnowDevil. You should clean it up and put a new paint job on it , then give it to your dad to play with.... excellent Christmas gift.
That’s awesome go dad
More videos with DAD... he's a legend
nice gesture matt !!! tighten the track a bit, sounds like it's ratcheting
"I don't know what he's trying to do" must be a snowmachine rider cause he is riding it like he is on snow!!!
Was thinking the same thing.

With how much fun he was havin it shuld be call "pops rocket"
Hay John enjoy every moment you get with your dad and never let anything go unsaid. I just lost my own father and I don't even have a video of him just a few pictures. Cherish every moment with him and your family because they can be gone tomorrow.
Your dad was rippin it! Hell yeah!
You are so lucky to have a friend like that. That thing is awesome!
Thats amazing. The snowmobiles generally need the snow to help lube the track and keep things cool. Thats awesome!
@Mike L yea they would really grip the track from getting hot and sticky and really drag and overload engine.
@Mike L we used to grass drag sleds,we would pipe washer fluid on to the sliders,to keep the track cool,worked great!
@Josh Frank After riding through that sand I'm thinking..........what sliders? Gotta be toast.
Some race teams rig up antifreeze jets for oval track racing where the track can turn into mud.
I love the way snowmobile engines sound. Tuned exhaust, two stroke, nothing like it.
Love dad's hat!! That was so cool and it doesn't tear the lawn to bad!! TWO👍👍
Can't wait to see what you guys do with the snowmobile motors you got at Mini Mayhem!
Lots of cool people out there your dad's cool also looks like he had a blast
Dad is a BEAST
Yes! Love Monday videos!
We want to see dad having more fun!😍😍
And dad's shirt even matches the blue of the snomoquad! I am glad you guys put mufflers on the cross cart; it would make ONE thing I've been right about, lol!
Your dad is super cool.
You know it would be real badass some front tracks on it 💪
With an electric assist!
Go home kids
That is so cool! I can't wait to see how much trouble you guys can get into with that thing. I'm also looking forward to the things you do to it. Thanks, guys. Watching your dad get into that thing was really fun.
Good to see your Pops out there rippin and enjoying life. Now you just need to lift it with bigger tires better hubs and maybe a fancy paint job.
That snow machine is awesome guys so cool
That's awesome!
You can tell your dad was having fun I bet it brought back good memories from when he was a young man cool video
Awesome, just awesome. I was able to get my dad on my RM80 and then my YZ125G (that was it he was terrified when it hit) , some of my best memories ever. Great stuff
Dad of the year award for jumping on an ripping it!
This is so cool to see your dad out playing
The Dad was the best rider of them all!
The smile your dad got when he heard that thing fire up was awsome
Great episode and Great to see Dad rip it up👍👍
John, your dad is awesome 😂 he’s such a good sport. I’m glad he’s interested in what you do and all the cool projects.
My family had a '93 indy xcr 440 that I always wanted to put wheels on... Cool to see what it would have looked like. You will need to replace the sliders soon with the abrasiveness of the dirt and sand. Also watch the temp... They are designed to be cooled by the snow/cold air hitting the running boards.
Cool to see your dad. And wouldn't it be a snow-mo-trike.
Your dad rules
DAD WAS GREAT!!! 👍👍🤙
Gotta say you’re dad is pretty cool for wanting to try it ! Awesome !
MATT... you rock sir :)
thats awesome haha your dads is the man you need to just give him that fix the front end
Awesome gift. Awesome vehicle.
I cant believe that guy just gave that to you!! That's too cool!! Have fun guys, stay safe!
love your dad m8 hes so cool bless him
I think it's funny that he's leaning like if he was on an actual sled trying to cut a turn
Doesn't matter if you're on a snowmobile or 4 wheeler you lean when turning if you don't you will after you flip the first time
@@nathanbutler8240 exactly, dad's been down once and doesn't enjoy the shoulder pain I bet lol.
@@Hershel_777 lol exactly. he maybe older but he isn't dumb. and you don't bounce back as fast after a good wreck when you're older. Lol I member being 17 would flip a 4 wheeler get launched off get up flip it back over do it again lol now that shit hurts and bruised up for a week lmao
@@nathanbutler8240 yep
Dumbest comment ever it doesn't matter what you drive gravity and momentum works the same
LOVE IT YOUR DAD WAS HAVING A DAMN GOOD TIME cool dad you have there as always cool vid guys thanks .
That was really cool of that dude Matt to give you guys that snowmoquad, your dad looked like he was having a blast on it he'll probably be sneaking it out for couple rides while you guys are at sema lol I know I would
Love the video cant wait to see what u do with the snowmobile motors
5:17 - 5:30
The guy between John and Isaac looks like Isaac with facial hair. If he's not related, wow dude... Bada$$ machine though! Also hope to see the other engine on a build soon!
You guys rock!
John, Your dad is really cool 😎. Funny thing is I was thinking of you guys when noticed a yerfdog on a scrappers truck headed for recycling. Frame was junk either wise I would have saved it.
You need to make your dad a cool rig just for him. He really was having fun. You can't take that smile.
You two are so cool.
That's awesome! I just picked up a Manco 607C-1 GFX with a Honda GX270. I would love to make it down to Mini Mayhem sometime!
Your Dad is a legend!
So great to see someone with a cool dad . you know this means he has to at least say hi from time to time. as always a great video , tell dad we said hi .
Congratulations getting to sema
LOOKS GREAT WITH JOHN'S DAD RIDING IT!
Sounds like the Drive Gear is either "Slipping, or Stripped"...🙀😿
Take care,

I love how your dad wears your hats.
That was awesome of Matt👍🏽🍺
Your pops is loco🤣
I was wishing I guys would do this at some point
Sounds like the tracks are slipping a little. John your Dad looked like he had a freaking blast. Isaac was also ripping it. Faithful Subscriber from Southeast Missouri. Car's and Cameras RULE
I love doing builds like this , making fun stuff from junk.
Now just think of how mean, oh i'd say about 1,000cc snowmobile engine on a buggy set up. y'all build cross cart,. So maybe a something for the mud, holes & hills??
Definitely balls to the wall build !!!

Let it rip Pops!
*Need More Videos With your Dad In them!!!*

Thanks guys! You reminded me of my old man. He was always willing to send it.
First off your dad is awesome, two id be having way too much fun on that thing. lol
That snowmobile is amazing I love it man hope you guys build it so some upgrades to it make that thing sick
