In this video we bring a go kart that has been sitting in a garage for 40 years back to life. It was an original six flags racing go kart that was given to an employee who kept it for decades in his garage and then sold it to us. Because the original engine was completely seized we traded it out for a predator 212 from harbor freight and it turned this kart into an absolute monster. It can drift with no pvc and just destroys tires and is a blast to drive.

    I can't understand why your channel has minimal subscribers.
    You have great content. Your easy to understand, you show details to what your doing.
    We are able to see tje guys who's talking, not a annoying voice only by never seeing who it is.
    You dress in shorts and t-shirts, that gives a feel that you guys fit in with the average guy.
    Your filming is in no way over edited like some.
    I mean is YouTube's powers to be overlooking you guys ? Again your doing everything right.
    It has to change, I might ask You tube myself WHY.
    Until then keep up the great content.
    Take care.

    Next time you have a locked up engine pour marvel mystery oil down the spark plug hole and get it into the valves and let it sit overnight. Marvel really is a marvel. A neighbor didn’t mix oil in his 2-stroke scooter and the engine was completely locked. I could stand with all my weigh on the kick starter and the piston wouldn’t move. Marvel down the spark plug hole for a couple hours and amazingly it came back to life and ran like it was never ceased.

  12. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars unionrdr says:

    I remember dealers, tire shops, etc giving those away in raffles to get business coming in. Pained up like the Indy racers of the time. Always wanted one.

    Predator predator predator I understand there an expensive but wouldn’t it be equally inexpensive if you got a second hand yz426f motor you know something Japanese and powerful I think if you mount it onto a cart you would fly after you gave it wings of course

  24. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Hola! Tom Miano says:

    I liked what your doing with that cart.
    As a kid I had a job in Coney Island fixing the go carts.
    One thing.
    Don't you think you should have rebuilt the chassis and improve the brakes first?
    That predator engine it much more powerful than the 31/2 horse Briggs and Stratton.
    BIGGER BRAKES PLEASE.

    That is a really cool score on the old gocart I kind of agree with the other comment about rebuilding the old motor I had a older Briggs done at a votech high school for practically nothing in parts and that engine is still running over 15 years later with no problems. Plus it actually. Got bored And. Shaved giving it a little more power too ( that was the teachers idea ). To get the old girl going as cheaply as he. Could for me it had sat outside for a long time before i bought. A used cart At a yard sale It ran with horrible compression when i got it. So i took advantage of a small engine Shop at a high school Labor was free. Although i did make a contribution for a fundraiser they had going on ?
