There is a lack of a certain vehicle on this channel, that being the electric tank, I really miss this fine vehicle that y’all set out to create almost two years ago, I would really appreciate it if y’all brought it back, yours truly me.

[@Siddy22]

I wish they would bring it back,

[@evank8459]

It stinks batteries are expensive and aren't as generic as fuel. In lieu of a steal on a bunch of battery modules for projects, maybe there's a channel out there that'd appreciate a collab to get it going!

[@ToolsInAction4u]

@@22smcrrider96 the disrespect! 😂 Ethan’s builds are top notch

[@_XRMissie]

The song used at 3:57 is so fresh and funky, and with the chord progression at 4:26 being oh so juicy, I had to look up who made it... Anyone that's curious, it's "Distance" by Daniel Brown. Massive respect for using music from smaller artists... But GHPC, please credit the music you use in the description. I shouldn't have to Shazam a YT video to find who made the song. Also, that go kart is absolutely bonkers, what a build!

[@cecilnewman666]

Its crazy that over the years Ethan has become the wise one of reason lol

[@Duc-sl7rz]

Ethan telling everyone they're out of their minds is incredible considering he's building a motorcycle with 47 inch tires.

​@@Duc-sl7rz Lol .. and the back tire is ready to eat the driver .... . I mean Grind Hard on the drivers back, head etc. Ethan usually thinks things through. We'll see what he does next.

[@ken503]

Will's transition from "This is terrifying" to Full Send was about .25 seconds.

[@YogurtSnipe]

13:06 Can we appreciate the camera giving us that angle, it just knew it had to release itself for this shot.

[@neukin]

Sweet, pro tip on skid plate.. weld in thread all or bolts so its flush on bottom and then stud goes through rail and lock wash n nut on top. Those bolts on the underside are lower so will get ground down and then cant put a tool in them ;) Awesome build guys.

[@Case16710]

Good thing Will made that skid plate. Wouldn’t want to scratch his phone.

[@CLCIII]

The electric Go Cart was inevitable! It is terrifyingly gloriously sketchy and fast! I am a huge fan of electric for torque and quickness. Whenever the range/weight issue is solved, they will be the best! As Always, May God Bless you and yours! 😇

[@aaronmoores92]

The go pro shot where it falls off and he drifts over it is preemooo !! Love the build !

[@amcustomfab]

It's a good thing. Ethan scrapped that wing. Otherwise will and Edwin would have used it as three more seats and considered it a four seat. Go-kart😂 great content as always guys. Keep up. Great work!.

[@robertwooten4100]

For will to be so young, he has a lot of knowledge. His Fab skills are great. I'm so ooo glad you guys brought him on board. GHPC has saved his life

[@squidikka]

Ethan as usual being the only one that knew how dangerous that was. A pond on a warm day is no problem. A frozen pond at 20 degrees is an entirely different animal. When your whole body hits that water, you tense up, panic, etc. Easy to drown without having experienced and trained what to do in that situation. Hopefully the pond wasn't too deep to pose an actual threat.

[@svenngunnarrustgard1228]

I was thinking more about water versus electricity

[@squidikka]

​@@svenngunnarrustgard1228 That won't happen. Water is actually a lousy conductor. The dangers of electricity in a standard house outlet for example, is not independently just the voltage, it is current that gets you. The battery won't harm you in any way with regards to getting electrocuted as it doesn't have the current capabilities to do so, let alone in such a big pond. In fact, the acid poses more a threat to you.

[@StanleyKubick1]

they're a few hundred feet away from their house

[@squidikka]

@@StanleyKubick1 This means literally nothing. Being close to home doesn't un-drown you, nor does it make medical help come to you faster out in the woods.

This has been the best video in a while, you guys have such a great friendship. I’ve been watching for about 4 years now and you definitely make each weekend better with your uploads, especially since you’ve started creating longer content. Keep up the grind guys and stay swindley

Those screws are chewing up the ice really good. it won't be long until it cracks now. That kart definitely looks like too much fun. just how I like it.

[@Benzy670]

This thing is scary quick, I love it. I wouldn't want to stop driving it either lol. Also, I love how Ethan is basically the dad of the shop now. How did the crazy one become the rational disappointed one? Lmaooo. That's how you know Will and Edwin together really are swindley brothers

[@robotrobot12345]

My favorite part was at 4:58. Phenomenal production as well as cinematography. You are genius’s my friends. I salute you. Well done. 😊

[@nicksmacro]

I saw some sweet macro welding shots, I bet you were shooting through a visor. Nice work, love it!

[@musicauthority-d6g]

I completely agree with Ethan, that fugly wing had to go to the scape yard. I have to ask Edwin and Will, you guys do know that water is an electrical conductor? you guys lucked out that it didn't short out all the electrical circuits and the battery. on the go kart when it sunk in the water. that kart looks like a blast to drive for sure. however I agree with Edwin and Will that it needs taller tires. and a skid plate that curves upward in the front. so it will keep the go kart chassis on top of the snow instead of plunging into the snow. I have to stay I really like this electric go kart it really goes like stink. however possibly a little larger battery for more range would be nice.

[@Rizzbulla]

Another certified masterpiece from certified legends

[@newagetemplar6100]

Lol that’s flipping rapid, far better than the bike engines ones I’ve previously seen . Word of warning guys , if it’s a hollow back axle it WILL snap near the rear wheel bearing! Had this happen to us on several occasions while racin 2 strokes with some quite ‘ close shave’ near misses . If it breaks on the chain side it can potentially flick round with the chain taking your elbow with it !!!!! If the breaks go a bit numb ( always do ) theirs a special break bleeding reservoir that eradicate trapped air . ❤🇬🇧

[@tywayne5410]

Yooo! This is sick! I think you should try adding some double wishbone suspension on some random stuff cause it’d look premium and funny 😂

Nah he's just worried they'll hurt themselves. That's a really dangerous situation they put themselves in. 20 degrees into freezing water is no joke. You tense up, etc. Easy to drown without knowing exactly what to do, and how to react. A pond on a warm day is no problem, but freezing is a different story. Ethans right to be grumpy.

Guys you better bin this throttle and buy something else that doesn't jam. Just think of that reverse crash in the garage where the throttle body stuck and this monster of a go kart had only like two meters to accelerate and it was enough to bust the rear bumper, now imagine what happens if you have 10x more distance.
