IT LOOKS SO GOOOOD!! You guys SMASHED THIS ONE! HELL YEAH!!... also thr thieves that stole your friends stuff are real scum man. They probably arent aware of the audience you have a reach to. Hopefully it can all be recovered. Thats so sad man.

[@ryanperry9472]

So cool of you guys to mention Rick and Brandy! I have become friends with them over the last couple years. You are so right, they are some of the best people on the planet! Such a shame stuff like this happens to people like this. I guess the truck was recovered, saw that today. Thanks for watching out for them! Love the video and love the GS lawn mower build!

[@CarsandCameras]

One of my favorites videos of all time, but I hate the ending! Share the info to get the word out!

[@lucassarchet3844]

Rick and Brandi got their truck back today! And for the sleeve. Get some green loctite. That's what it's specifically for.

[@Ratkill9000]

@@lucassarchet3844 Green loctite is strong! Chrysler uses that stuff on the Jeep drive shafts. Have to use heat to break the bolts free.

[@jeffd3886]

Awesome video! Did Ike buy the Powell Challenger Minibike that he was eying in the video? Haha

[@MidwestMayhem98]

Great video but I don’t think anything has made me laugh more than seeing what Charles smelled when that hotel room door opened🤣🤣🤣

[@WOLFEY0812]

Unbelievable smh

[@shiftymiata]

This might be one of my favorite C&C builds ever, and it really just came together out of nowhere!! The sound, stance, and patina are a perfect combo

[@CarsandCameras]

Just wait till we get it running 100% and on the track!

[@BuildBreakRepeat]

Always good seeing you guys, that slow mo crash was pure art 😂 It’s been great seeing everyone work together to try and get Rick and Brandi their stuff back, the mini bike community is unmatched!

[@Smedleydog1]

Now all you need is to see how fast you can mow with a pull behind mower.

[@lukasboyer3099]

yeah like ike with his jeep in isaac it’ll be fine with him mowing the yard with that lol

[@tmackinator]

One of your best builds. It's got a great look to it.

[@Hampton_White]

That go-kart T Bucket was sweet

[@Canadian_Craftsman]

SAFETY SQUINT 😆 you guy's have grown into such a finely tunned machine, ultimate team!!✌️💚

[@DunnDifferent]

Jack (hotel room engine Build dude) is a real stand up dude. He let me, and several others, ride some of his mini bikes for a local rollout. 💯 legit guy.

[@HandTightGarage]

Dude just expected them to build the motor for them, in his hotel room, at midnight with no effort from himself.

[@420ace]

@@HandTightGarage what u mean bro he helped lol not the full build was shown on the vid the guys chill

[@twocvbloke]

Gotta love seeing Charles in the back sat on the mower looking like he's in his happy place!!! :P Shame some scumbags had to ruin the fun though stealing truck & trailer from the other guys, and of course the hotel not taking responsibility with the "No cameras, not our fault" nonsense, if you pay to stay there, they should be CCTV'd up to protect what you've parked there...

[@Thomas-fo9zu]

Absolutely, they're as bad as the thieves! All that business these folks brought in and they couldn't even scratch their bill or anything!

[@vowki1764]

I loved meeting y’all again this year, can’t wait for next year

[@g-force2745]

Never underestimate those old OBS GMs. I have the 1500 version of Ike's truck, 25 years old and it just keeps going! (OG Engine AND Transmission 👍)

[@shk2564]

Having things stolen from you is one of the worst feelings in the world as you guys have experienced before! I’m truly sorry to hear about it and I hope that it will all work out! 😢❤

[@bullfrogjay4383]

Had my Honda Z50 stolen when I was a kid, worst feeling. Can't stand thieves.

[@earlhouse4458]

I can honestly say.... That is the coolest thing y'all ever built!!!!

[@CarsandCameras]

Thanks Earl!

[@itzchappyyo7592]

Improve and lessen the shifter throw by increasing the angles of the pivot points. And using springs as helpers and keepers. Try experimenting with that🤙🤙

[@WOLFEY0812]

I must say this is definitely one of the best builds & best looking 👍

[@PhaQ2]

You guys have built a lot of awesome rides. But the mower is top notch cool. It's like some childhood dream I had a long long time ago, has come to life.

[@rickstevens1479]

Alway impressed with Charles.. got a big smile and is a heck of a partner. Not only talented but has a perfect attitude...great team at cars and cameras..😎 that mower looks like a classic ..

[@williamcummings6562]

The fenders are perfect ! One of your best builds!

[@crtr7623]

Over the years, I've watched you guys, and you always made me want a minibike. So finally, I built one out of an old bike frame. The thing was sweet but lasted less than a week (the tire blew out and the welds started to fail). But now that I'm in welding class right now, I decided to give it another try. Anyway, thank you, guys, for being a big motivation.

[@Ratkill9000]

Hey Charles, incase you were wondering, it's called Autogenous when you only use heat and the weld material no filler metal to fuse two pieces of metal together.

[@bodinski100]

i could of watched another hour of this lads...more of tis format...spread ya wings more and take us with you...

[@barrywilky535]

It was great to see you guys out at pate again this year. Always enjoy talking tech with Ike. Got to say hello to John he was about to eat South Charles for about a half a second then he was gone. Hope to see you guys next year. Looking forward to the builds to come this year.

[@CarsandCameras]

See ya next year! Glad you made it out

[@peterland7388]

Glad you guys had such a good time. Now, get back to work!

[@marktimmons6149]

I haven't never race a lawnmower since I have been watching you guys 4:09 I think these pretty cool keep the video coming.

[@davekauffman8727]

You three are insane, I've been a subscriber since about 2014, it's a laugh riot waiting to happen watching you guys. God saw who stole those things, and I just prayed for a speedy apprehension of the thieves.

[@CarsandCameras]

Absolutely, as of tonight the truck and trailer are recovered!

[@jamesbigham9036]

The mower is bad ass and a very fast mower. I can tell you guys had a great time at the swap meet.

[@jamesmoffett]

👌👍🙏❤️🇺🇸😃 you guys knocked that one out of the park

[@jasonblair8189]

Would be awesome with front brakes. You could do standing burnouts

[@danf4616]

Wow that turned out great! Has a cool retro rat rod look. 👍👍

[@BUILDNIGHT]

Looks like it was a great trip, John! We’ll have to get out to that meet one day. Really looking forward to Mini Mayhem Spring 2023! See you there!

[@lokedog916]

Ike is a true hero, bravin the lonesome highway with a suburban full of fun

[@edvandermolen1069]

I'm watching and thinking that you might want to think about a custom handle bar steering rather then the steering wheel. Back in the 60's, my grandfather built me and my brother a custom conversion lawnmower/Minnie bike with all mower wheels, tires, custom drive train parts, custom hand made seat, and a steel angle iron frame, he went with handlebars with grips. it was so amazing. We tore up the farm fields with it. Nice job on your speed racer! Awesome job guys!

[@tonyd7164]

I've had my gs450 for 16 years. damn thing won't die. I beat the crap out of it. love that bike.

[@lonestarracingenginesgokar2202]

It was great meeting you all!!!

[@kevinleee3408]

That blue wheelbarrow Roadster is awesome

[@GoPowerSports]

One of the dopest lawn mower builds this world has ever seen. Great job boys!

[@MrGaryGG48]

At about the 17:30 mark, that cracked me up. It looks like the "Wild Bunch... on mopeds and lawnmowers!!" That's a funny image. 😂🤣

[@stevelutz8655]

That's my absolute favorite ride since I've Bern following you guys!!It just hits every mark that appeals to me!! Love It!!🤩🤩😜👍👌

[@Coalblack79k10]

Would love to see the 500 fully restored it needs to happen👍

[@Thatoneguy77834]

Thanks for making more racing mower vids u guy are awesome 😎

[@kaseyjones4143]

hey i made in to the vid thats cool . you guys where great and loved hanging out with you 3 . hope to do it aging some time keep up the great work as always guys.

[@metalmyke1]

I laughed so hard seeing Owen in the race mower.

[@c4or2ey02]

Lmao that dude said "I been on the 250" like it's similar. Naaaah that bike is a monster waiting to be awoken.

[@johndorney6857]

I haven't watched yall in years I decided to watch this video and saw yall built a sx 175?!?!?! As a collector of sx250s I respect the swap and will be watching that video after this one.

[@dilloncorwin976]

Luv the video in its entirety great job guys 👊

[@MoneyPit_on_Wheels]

This is by far one of the best builds you guys did. Came out so good. Keep going on it and don’t stop. Don’t let it sit, this is a badass project.

[@JohnHill-jm7tm]

Guys awesome video 👍. This Old Man from Washington NC enjoying with my coffee 3am. Really sorry it had to end with such a sad way 😔. Love you three. 🛵🧔💝💝💝

[@mired914]

Ok that's freaking cool! I need to make one.

[@michaelcheslock7866]

Sweet Toque on that motor, needs a taller sprocket!

[@Uncledonkeystales]

I'm not kidding, I have a little red 1963 king midget in my garage right now. My grandfather drove it around looking like a fire engine whip lights in a siren back in the day

[@noelwarner1235]

That is so cool I would love to have something like that for parades. Sounds like the jetting might be off a little bit or possibly a dirty carb. You need to put a license plate with that on it zero turn

[@JonathanWhoever]

Guys, hide a kill switch on those rigs.

[@critical]

Fenders look soooo good!! Dope build!

[@Ben_here_b4]

@26:02 Charles face was so concerned lol

[@shaunwortman6433]

My kid really loves watching you guys and we enjoy tinkering together on projects of our own. Our dream is a racing mower similar to cars and cameras with 1 maybe 2 vintage McCulloch kart engines powering the mower. Thats a custom build we dream about. On a different note we were very upset hearing about good people getting their hard work taken. You know there are alot of ex military guys looking for work who specialize in finding bad guys. I bet if you offered to help build a custom racing mower or something along those lines as a reward, some of these ex military guys would gladly give a look around for those beautiful bikes for you. And probably handle a small swift punishment of the bad guys for free so they wont ever do it again.this is family friendly so violence shouldn't be condoned. Thats why the punishment part should be free. 😊

[@mikedavis6566]

Greetings from Texas. Glad you had fun down here. We live in the area and will keep a lookout for these bikes.

[@mikesmith8557]

This was a top-tier project guys good job!!!!!!!

[@bullfrogjay4383]

That thing is absolutely crazy man ! Love it

[@jessemillsap9387]

Charles on the mower in the backseat!!😂😂😂😂😅😅😅😂😂

[@frosthoe]

I told ya! I did this when i ws 13yrs old 1980, to an old IH cub cadet.used a 2 cylinder 600cc yamaha junkyard motor It had 5 lug rear differential , i put 15 inch rims with studded snow tires from junkyard I lived next door to...built lots of stuff we had like 50 acres behind us.

[@griffinbridges7079]

At 17:10 all I could think was Mad Max of the mini vehicles, the scene where all the vehicles spread out

[@brianmoseley8032]

It was nice meeting you guys at Pate this year. I’m the guy that mentioned your .30 cents(sarcasm) mini bike scores from past Pate meets. Excellent job on this MTD! I’ll keep an eye out for this stolen merchandise. Cheers

[@xxxcabbie]

One of the local shops built a mini rail dragster with a 750 CC Honda engine and car rear tires ! It was something to see ! About 25' long but not as much fun to bomb around in (as your mower) because it took way to much space to turn it around ... :)

[@RC_Trailblazers]

Never gonna believe this haha. I just purchased a small piece of property 15 acres, I found an old Manco Dingo hanging from a tree. It must have been used for target practice there's several bullet holes in it. My brother in law have it torn apart. We're gonna get it running again and driving but we're keeping the bullet holes as nostalgia. 😅

[@waynerowlinson6177]

Just putting this out there for the thieves. I don't wish anything too horrible on you, just an incurable, itchy rash that lasts until you return the stuff and pay for damages. OK, then maybe another year of a nasty rash just for being a d*ck. Loved the video, love the mower!

[@raysplace6548]

May the fleas of a million camels infest & wreak havoc on their nether regions...🍻🍻

[@user-yw5se1md6j]

😂😂😂😂😂 omg I Laughed out load when dude was in slow motion and John says let's see what it can do and dude dude a wheelie and ran his own Leg over funny shit I ever seen 🤣😂👌 this channel ROCKS 😂

[@tymullins4666]

Dude that is definitely a badass little whip,makes the modern day zero turn obsolete. Great build guys.

[@bobmanzi7712]

great stuff guys thanks.

[@kylejohnson9510]

Im gonna be building my first cart out of a snowmobile and a lawn mower this next coming week. Wanted a project, and yall inspired me extra🤣

[@kylesyx8432]

That has got to be the coolest lawnmower I’ve ever seen ! Haha bet it goes so fast you need for blades! Hope they find the thieves!

[@jeffman3]

Funny timing on this build, I picked up an 87 GS450L just earlier today. Solid little bike. 😂

[@kurtyoung6769]

It may be a "gas Hog" because it's running rich? It sounds rich on the main and perhaps slightly on the pilot?

[@jameswarren423]

Absolute phenomenal video one of your best yet! The Mower cart is completely bad ass. Once you get that fine-tuned it’s going to be a beast! Looks like a lot of fun🤩 the swap meet looked like it was a great time some pretty cool stuff to see there! And I’m very sorry about your friends, stolen vehicle and trailer , and bikes. Hopefully they find them and catch the morons that stole it.👍🏼🤩❤️

[@CarsandCameras]

Thanks! As of tonight the truck and trailer have been recovered!

That "Rat Rod" mower looks great. With the stance fenders and cowl it just looks the part!

[@harrybrown4815]

17:22 it's like a mad max movie lmao😂😂😂

[@geeksgamesandgears2369]

Wow you guys got a CR500 IE: The Widow Maker. I remember when they used to be cheap because people used to 4 strokes would get them not realizing how different a 2 stroke is, take it out once or twice and scare the shit out of themselves and then quickly try to sell it or trade for something more manageable. That's an awesome find! But be careful, they well earned their nickname.

[@docholiday6944]

Btw Smokey’s was a Honda motorcycle dealership back in the day. Thanks Guys, awesome vid as always!! 👊👊✌️💚🤙🤙🤙

[@mariemccann5895]

Awesome! Good video.
