[@YouGotsTheRabies]

"Hopefully it won't destroy the clutch, but it probably will. It'll be fine." Love it!

[@quaratella9020]

does anybody else notice that john talks way more southern when ike is with him.

[@CarsandCameras]

+C&Q Science I'm going to take that as a compliment.

[@dream2sea]

+C&Q Science It's called "The Isaac Effect" lol

[@quaratella9020]

+CarsandCameras hahahah ok, love your videos i watch them all the time keep up the good work, thanks

[@Big-Purv]

Isaac it'll be fine for president!

[@oncinaproductions]

you guys should make a "it'll be fine" compilation

[@sammydamico5857]

+Vaeda Productions yesssss

[@porkchopgaming8480]

an*

[@thatguywhoridesyzs9627]

Montage?

[@oncinaproductions]

+That guy who rides YZs yup

[@banopanov3281]

+Vaeda Productions yeh that would be sick

[@backfireproductions4362]

you should get one of those old steel pan tractor seats and put it on there

[@joshuabeanblossom8371]

yes they should

[@lukethom1567]

+WizardSonmanerf lol yes

[@jaregg]

I'll 2nd that

[@andyhix1304]

I completely agree!!

[@Ken-co5pc]

agreed

[@Smurfyeah68]

These old videos are my favorite. I miss the rat rod wagon. It was my childhood dream

[@oski360fuego5]

It's so cool to see how far Issac and John have come watching this video from 6yrs ago to now, alot of progress... they built a whole new shop from the ground up. It literally motivates me and reminds me that dreams do come true... congrats guys and ima follow yall till the wheels fall off... GB

[@jimspeed1388]

Your show fills the gap between Roadkill and Roadkill fills the gap between cars and cameras episodes good work fellas.

[@davidjohnson8474]

Lol put the 670 V twin on it! It would be bananas

[@zimnator53]

I 2nd that it would be insanely awesome

[@keithhasafastcar]

+David Johnson with the current gearing

[@pharyo1386]

Yes I fourth it!

[@erikpluck2835]

that would be awsome but i think theyd be more likely to put the predator back on it for the time being since the briggs and straton is trashed

[@adrianszugye5929]

It'll be fine

[@rodneyyoung1055]

these inventions are greatly appreciated by me while on my free time..love to watch these things.

[@TheJukebot]

Your videos have come a long way, I'm loving the new intro! Can't wait for an update on the wagon

[@MrSzero13]

Im diggin this build plz keep innovating on this :)

[@dereinfallslose9665]

Ike will be young forever with those jeans and shoes :)

[@redneckcomputergeek]

Glad to see the clone of my Sons Gas power wheel worked out so good for you guys. After almost a year your the first I have seen to make a copy that worked. Great Job!

[@secaII]

Look so much better with the old/new B&S set-up. Can't wait to see the rest of the build.

[@viktorspeiser8591]

New rat rod wagon episode yaaaaaaaay! By the way, the steering wheel solution of yours is the most badass I have ever seen. Looking forward to see this thing with a huge sidepipe hack. :) "It will be fine"

[@sethp0411]

When you found out which way the shaft spins😂😂👌🏻👌🏻

[@THATHATSALLFOLKS]

LIKE JUST FLIP IT THE OTHER WAY IF IT WAS WRONG

[@2011wideglide]

Guys i feel inclinded to post a comment. I stumbled upon your channel one day and i have to say, great job. You guys work real good together and i love the projects you have done. I just watched all of the Rat Rod Wagon videos and i am blown away. Brings back memories from when i was younger. Great job, and keep it up. I will be watching.

[@nissanrb30]

awesome vids guys. entertaining every time!!! looking forward to see the ratrod wagon burning rubbbbberr!!!

[@Moostery]

They said my name! I'm famous!.... Okay all joking aside. Nice work on the rat rod. It's my favorite project of yours to date.

[@mathewparrett]

The engines on fire and the throttles stuck. Jon turns to Ike. Ike says, "It'll be fine."

[@ryanfredell2720]

Man you two have come a long way. love your channel!

[@ParCBur]

coming back to these old videos and seeing that intro was a hit of nostalgia I didn't know I needed

[@sonofafailrace4300]

Build a moat around the shed

[@zachtupy1499]

it would still be a swamp, but it'll look cool

[@sonofafailrace4300]

+lets do stuff and be cost-effective.

[@muticolor1]

YES

[@2ndspingarage]

Great idea.

[@bigtopmedia]

Lmao *YES!!*

[@jameskingston]

Awesome :)

[@andredornier]

Im really happy to see this build go to this setup.

[@terminated_1122]

Thank you for uploading more Rat Rod!

[@MrJeepinZeke]

If you're going to do a steering wheel it should be a chain steering wheel made from 3/8" link chain in the shape of a U or circle

[@mrkthmn]

I know some people are talkin crap but I think the new intro was pretty cool! Enjoyed the episode guys!

[@isaacitllbefine7231]

+mrkthmn thanks

[@baileysims]

definitely digging the intro!

[@lbzhonest5984]

thank you guys I appreciate bringing back the rat rod!

[@optinghi9318]

what about using a motorbike engine in your next project? I think it would be funny to build a go kart with gears best wishes from Germany you are great

[@isaacitllbefine7231]

+PEK Man thanks greetings Germany !

[@optinghi9318]

+Isaac it'll be fine thx

[@Rocko892]

Any video is a good video from you guys. :)

[@isaacitllbefine7231]

+Nick Svendsen thanks

[@Rocko892]

+Isaac it'll be fine Any time :)

[@MineTwine45]

Mounting the engine like that will most definitely help cooling too. Love the build!

[@isaacitllbefine7231]

+MineTwine45 thanks

[@kungpaochicken1353]

Thats honestly one of the coolest drivetrain setups ive ever seen

[@isaacitllbefine7231]

+Kung Pao Chicken thanks

[@s00p3rman]

I totally recommended a drive shaft setup when you guys were asking for ideas for the rat rod! Next idea: a grated guard over the drive shaft so you can see it spinning. + you could put foot pegs behind the front tires for your feet. #carsandcameras

[@fishingsession3774]

Guys!! yall should do a 4 wheel drive go kart!!!!!

[@justinsmithson6461]

you guys are awesome yall do awesome projects been hooked on yall videos since right before the 50 dollar go cart one video and was hooked and Issac you are the man

[@isaacitllbefine7231]

+justin smithson thanks

[@Mainly4999]

Thanks guys. Videos are very entertaining.

[@isaacitllbefine7231]

+A/C Tech Lee thank you

[@TimZ007]

best reason for not sitting over driveline componets is if it breaks where is it going. Your leg. Ever see a driveshaft on a bus break. Other setup was janky but safer on the boys.

[@Zzeke]

That shaft is massive, no chance of breaking with these engines...... but could get pants wrapped up in it. Guard would be good.

[@Bronkey469]

Last time i came this early i cried myself to sleep

[@SquidWithGear]

I cant wait to see this thing all set up and finished!

[@terminated_1122]

+Squid WithGear Me Too!

[@nathankennedy8704]

It's an awesome set up now. I like the side pipe idea!

[@derekgrant3417]

Issac how's Bobby and Connie doing.and how are things at Strickland?

[@Turnt_Reynolds]

They sang nickleback... They have the same black caddy as the one nickleback album cover... Dear god they're actually nickleback

[@Turnt_Reynolds]

Nickelback* damn phone

[@isaacitllbefine7231]

+Zackster698 lol

[@thomasmiles8308]

Lol..... I get it...

[@mattm2640]

Fuck

[@Floordford]

I have a picture to prove it. Look at this photograph.

[@dave691974]

You guys rule, I've seen all your vids. Keep em coming!

[@isaacitllbefine7231]

+David Cotter thanks

[@briansilveira9435]

Love you guys you inspired me to build my own go kart keep the good work up!

[@netwt42oz]

that thing needs a mean chrome grill!

[@Kholdstare0503]

I LOVE Nickleback

[@olmoe1167]

I really like everything you guy's have done in all the video's....It's fun, informative, entertaining, and has a little "Hint" of Danger tossed in as well.... Keep Doing what your Doing...And We'll keep Watchin'.....And Remember..... It'll Be Fine....

[@isaacitllbefine7231]

+Ol' Moe thanks. we will

[@luvstruck2733]

Hey guys, I enjoy watching the videos, cause it's just fun to watch a go cart do wheelies, and other crazy stuff. The reason go cart engines are in the back is because those 90 degree drives heat up really bad and the rob a lot of torque. It's a cool idea to have the engine in the front, but a more physically workable situation would be to turn the engine sideways with the shaft facing the back, and attach a transmission, and a differential. The most efficient way to do it is to, keep the engine where you have it now, and run the chain to the front wheels. That configuration is the most efficient way to propel a motorized cart. Building the front wheel drive would really be a cool thing to do.

[@kadenlarson9992]

hahahaha i can imagine one of you guys getting in that thing to take off, press the throttle and go lurching backwards

[@shlushe1050]

Lmao

[@DigBipper188]

Oh... and thirdly We're gonna tap that hole ~Ike 2016

[@BorosTheGamer5021]

i love the opining it reminds me of a 90s go cart show :)

[@MrRizza69]

wow nice save of the rat rod wagon I wasn't expecting that. nice job guys.

[@isaacitllbefine7231]

+Ryan H thanks

[@TheKaziCo]

KartsandCameras

[@hector971000]

should have used the v-twin

[@DonovanBryant92]

they should try to find an old harley Flathead V-twin not many of those are still around as far as i know but they are still cool

[@SuperBongface]

10:52 I feel you there Ike, I graduated HS in NC 1996 then went to WCU and my 1 semester I majored in partying, lol...got toe up from the flow up mang!!! The 90's were the shiznit dawg ^.^ Love this channel long live the 90's!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@peter2213]

I just love this build, it looks like something you’d see the one smart crazy kid be riding around with just because he got bored

[@jeromefaker2215]

you guys should put a Yanmar clone diesel so you could roal coal

[@jeromefaker2215]

it would have plenty of torque to have steep gearing

[@TheGoldengram]

that thing smokes so bad put a stack on it!!!

[@t4teeee697]

Plz yes

[@OF01975]

Put a stack on the clutch??

[@t4teeee697]

+shut up u idiot ダチ no i know that not possible but on the engine

[@thathondachannel2105]

+shut up u idiot ダチ LOL

[@666mrjimbo]

+Julio Vazquez both u idiots need to shut the fuck up

[@treymoen2726]

Love your content. Love the shirt as well!

[@bobsbarnworkshop]

Those old Briggs carbs have a built in pulse pump to bring the fuel into an upper chamber in the top of the gas tank with an overflow hole so no float bowl was used...!

[@thenerdycanadian7172]

well this is weird, i came to early and it was still at 360p, and i come back and it's only 144p O.o

[@doorguner01]

TheNerdyCanadian You came to early thats what she said!

[@codystevenson652]

you should change the name to carts and cameras

[@slantedperspective]

ya :)

[@porkchopgaming8480]

KartsCarsandCameras

[@porkchopgaming8480]

except they do "other affordable ways of going fast" so, mini bikes the rat rod wagon etc...

[@codystevenson652]

PorkChopGaming that sounds about right but they do more videos about go karts than anything and I love that there's not another channel on KZbin that does a realistic go kart building video like they do so I think karts and cameras sounds good but carts and cameras is spelled wrong technically but the c's match

[@porkchopgaming8480]

+Cody Stevenson yeah. well it'll be fine

[@edspencer7121]

Buddy. it'll be fiiinnne👀👍I like the old, black Caddy in the garage. Reminds me of my old Neighbor L.J.. His was the same except like a Prarie Gold. He had it over to my shop for an engine miss (valve job) and a carb rebuild a while back . What a sweet ride. Cool old guy too. Great vid.👍 Keep up the good work.

[@isaacitllbefine7231]

+Ed Spencer thanks

[@BigMikesGarage]

Cool build. Let's see more of the K5

[@bentheguy101]

Isn't 2 stroke better for these size gokarts?

[@robertwyatt1458]

2 stroke motors are better for high speed go carts plus a 2 stroke wouldn't really fit in with this one

[@DrDangles]

Yes, well sorta. If you want a shifter kart then yes definitely, but 2 stroke engines specifically for go karts are way more expensive than a cheap 5/6.5 horse power engine.

[@gkess7106]

Not much torque. Burns oil.

[@rcguilford]

put some gravel down in front of the shop

[@shanekersey9272]

Great Build.

[@simplyfred8044]

you guys rock. keep it coming.

[@spacetrucker2952]

Does it ever NOT rain there?

[@bryceballard9732]

SPACE TRUCKER exactly what I was thinking

[@skulldriver1019]

EVERYONE I admit to liking nickelback!!!

[@jeromefaker2215]

OH MY!?!??!?

[@skulldriver1019]

DEAL WITH IT

[@Liowen]

+Dalton Whittle Stop everything and seek professional help.

[@jeromefaker2215]

+Dalton Whittle to much nickel back will lead to permanent hearing loss

[@Liowen]

Jerome Faker I thought that was the cure to listening to Nickleback??

[@bobert6754]

IDK if ive already said this before, but you guys are awesome and so geniuously entertaining

[@isaacitllbefine7231]

+Bobert thank you

[@stephenromesburg8250]

hey man y'all are great just fixed up my kart this past summer. With the briggs engine you can swap to older parts for that look your wanting, fixed up same similar year 5hp motor but with 60s 4hp head , 70s carb and tank with spring starter shroud.

[@anthonyottinger2594]

is there a kid in the garage around 5:48

[@dadurkey8287]

That's a little creepy

[@JoshKoaster]

This reminds me so much of "Motortrend's Roadkill". I don't like it. Please stay unique

[@CarsandCameras]

+Koastah We're just trying to improve the production quality. We take constructive criticism very seriously, and don't intend to use the same intro sequence forever.

[@JoshKoaster]

+CarsandCameras Oh, I completely understand. I just want you guys to be different is all. Every channel is unique in its own way, and in my opinion, I thought the intro resembled "Roadkills" intro. But don't worry, it'll be fine

[@CarsandCameras]

***** We want to be different too! We'll use the current intro for a short while, then make changes we feel both we and the viewers want.

[@JoshKoaster]

+CarsandCameras Itll be fiiinnnnne

[@AndrewNoronha-cb2gy]

+CarsandCameras do a gokart parts giveaway

[@rockdog2584]

Looks like you guys know how to have fun! I was just thinkin'...y'all either need a metal tractor seat or, maybe better yet, a snow shovel for a seat!

[@renejaravata785]

finally I've bin waiting for ages to see this cart again

[@austinmaclean801]

unsubcribed. yall like a nickelback song.

[@CarsandCameras]

+Austin MacLean Hey, I don't like it. Ike is the one that likes it.

[@austinmaclean801]

+CarsandCameras Okay, resubscribed I guess.

[@CIBERXGAMES]

+Austin MacLean Why does everyone hate nickelback??? They are good...

[@CIBERXGAMES]

I know, but that is a genuine question. I don't get why people hate them.

[@austinmaclean801]

+Ciber X Gaming who knows, one cool person said they sucked so everyone else agreed. it's all subjective though, it's music. if you like them, then who cares what everyone else thinks.

[@evoTimer]

Shaft driven looks amazing

[@robertthomas3862]

Right angle drive yeahhhh I love it!!!! Smart guys right here and love the videos!! Don’t stop making vids. Maybe you guys can build a yerf dog 3203 with upper and lower controls arms maybe widen the front end out and custom spindles?? Cause that’s what I have and want to do but not sure where to start.

[@jeremycounahan3957]

the "magic box" is call a right angle drive , love the videos

[@Rip3lmo]

Nice new intro fellas.! 👍

[@Minecraftguy1223]

I loved that intro it's so awesome

[@isaacitllbefine7231]

+RenegadePlayzMC thanks

[@Richofallthings]

That’s the baddest kart I have ever seen 🤣 great job

[@3v068]

Man I'm coming back after a good few years and this brings back memories! All the jank from when y'all didn't have a lot of tools. You've come a long way, and i think y'all should do a revive of the rat rod! Make a better frame and let it rust!

[@DatWhiteSpanishBoyFromNyc.-_-.]

I just got this in my recommended, I’m gonna take that as a gift from the KZbin gods😁

[@K0MRADru]

Gimble for nice stady shots would be nice for you guys. Really Cool build!!! Good job!

[@julito3054]

It turned out fine...whata you know!👍🔥🔥🔥

[@SweazyRaskal]

Under rated channel...subbed

[@isaacitllbefine7231]

+SweazyRaskal thanks

[@superdadenator]

3/4" steel conduit works great for small engine exhaust. East to bend and cheap. Has a nice sound as well.

[@zoltanx9374]

very cool guys! never seen front engine gokart LOLLLLL looks cool

[@rickyburnsed1161]

I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS EPISODE DANGIT

[@kleigh774a]

Looks so much better now. Rat rod needs a chrome stack on the carb and add the side pipe. Oh and add a seat lol

[@hond4srule]

It's beautiful !

[@VictorZimbardi]

Love the new intro

[@MrSimplySniping]

love these build videos..

[@zackftw2748]

4:19 I wish I could be that confident in my go kart builds
