Installing a HUGE 125cc 4 stroke motor in our BUDGET Drift Kart! | Part 9

[@itsmikelake]

WE DID IT! Thank you all SO much for the past 12 days. I've enjoyed every second of it. Merry Christmas to you all ❤

[@NOTVLOGUP]

Really lovin the vids mate Keep it up Wish you a good Christmas ❤️

[@BrodyLaslowski]

Can’t wait for next years

[@monsterjamshows6067]

Hey can you read my comment please

[@monsterjamshows6067]

And Merry Christmas

[@scrillaofficial1435]

Really loved the build Mike, merry Christmas!!❤

[@spookypoopy6036]

Man this death cart is so sick. With the amount of people you’ve convinced to start a build like this, you can make a whole drift comp. I’ve recently picked up a mini quad and I just finally got it running this morning. Watching your (awesome) daily videos every night really keeps me motivated to fix mine and eventually modify it into some sort of go kart/drift kart thing Merry Christmas to you, Marcus and Tara! PS. I asked Santa for that wheel and the awesome shirt and window banner

[@spookypoopy6036]

Quick update: I fixed the problem with the clutch and took it for my first drive around the backyard. It’s so rewarding to drive something knowing you are the reason it is running. I probably wouldn’t have this yet if your videos didn’t give me the motivation to finally spend some money on it. A quick question for if you read this far into the comment, how did you get more steering angle? I can just barely chuck a uey at the end of my backyard and turn around.

[@ventura9513]

kids quad life, playing with and building these things are great fun,,,,,,,,

[@tayone7579]

I gata say i found this channel and I have been so hooked I love your videos and how your doing this series ive been watching it every day and I love it I think I am going to do something like this thanks for the vids keep it up so I can keep watching great work

[@Beep-Man]

That little pocket rocket needs a wheelie bar now! It makes all the right sounds, and looks like so much fun to ride. Can't wait to see it sliding around the Bend!

[@joshshelton95]

Hey man, I absolutely love this series. It's been sick to watch the transformation and you showing how anyone can give it a go and have fun. Keep up the hard work bro cause everyone loves it!!!??!!

[@someonesomeone8194]

The first thing that i check if there is a new upload on the itsmikelake channel when i come on youtube Been waiting for the test drive since the start off the 4stroke engine swap and it was really fun i hope there is going to be more in 2024 maybe a drift trike i dont know to be honest but merry christmas and love the work you put in the vids keep it up💯

[@sluitermelvin]

That thing is honestly nuts man i would love to drive some death trap like that haha

[@WhosTRB]

Man this is sick. Reminds me of when I worked on my gokart lmao. It had a 212cc motor and was crazy fun. Until cops showed up lol. Keep up the good work and keep these type of videos coming man

[@Griffzgarige]

I’m on the hunt for a drift cart at the moment just because this is so fun! This is one of my favourite build vlogs ever! Ten out of ten will re watch! Love ya guts Mike keep it up!

[@Liverpool424]

[@Goosehar]

[@dergrunep1891]

I've been looking at this build since the first part and I have to say it's so exciting to see the progress. At the moment you are the only KZbinr whose videos I enjoy watching. I really appreciate your content, best regards from Austria.😜

[@thisalattanayake7056]

YESSSSSS! MIKE YOU DO NOT KNOW HOW LONG I HAVE WAITED TO SEE THIS LITTLE POCKET ROCKET IN ACTIONNNNN, ITS CRAZY HOW FAR THIS THING HAS COME ,HONESTLY KINDDA WANNA BUILD MY OWN DRIFT KART AFTER SEEING THIS !!! keep it up man

[@thisalattanayake7056]

oh and add some ballast to the front , should keep the front end from popping up

[@cookedrabbit7939]

Been an awesome build, from something so simple to this beast, everyday vlogs have been awesome, good content to watch daily, hopefully more to come, can't wait

[@swindsysuo6568]

on the 12 days of mikemas mikey gave to me, 12 banger videos, 11 different versions, 10 gifts for giving, 9 lets go intros, 8 new experiences, 7 ways to straight pipe, 6 ways to stance, 5 questionable wellllldddddd, 4 wheels for ripping, 3 pedals for drifting, 2 wheels for skidding, and badasssssss caarrrrrrrtttttt

[@cadenwideman899]

I appreciate what you do mike, im veiwing from canada and ive been enjoying your builds for a while now. I have a cart like this and id love to have something you do like that on my cart. I truly with you and your family a great christmas. Happy mikemas man!

[@aussiejohnny6882]

Love the series mike got me through at lot of tough days with the videos so sad to see it end but at the same time so excited for the final finish of the drift cart such a change on the cart from the beginning can’t wait for you to chuck a turbo on that thing and ripp it ❤🔥

[@louisbravo3997]

Oh man that steering will slap hard on my drift cart that I started making just after you blew the OG motor up with the turbo and nos, I’ve been taking notes on how you did yours and I just purchased a 2 stroke 85 motor to slap in mine 🥵 my wife isnt happy but hey you get that 🤣 hopefully one day we get a chance to tandem these bad boys, should ghee up a drift park for just karts somewhere, loving the content my dude and thank you!!!!!

[@MudMachineRC]

I have absolutely loved these drift kart videos ,a basic 50cc drift cart into a roaring 125cc beast. Watching you mod every part of the kart is absolutely amazing. Watching him upgrade the 50cc engine and upgrade it to a 125cc 4-stroke is downright mind-blowing. His dedication, never giving up, and learning from mistakes is beyond impressive. I’ve loved watching you learn every step of the way with all the fab work and you never give up. Hats off to his work and dedication in making something awesome out of the ordinary.

[@chefwiz]

You’re an inspiration bro my name is Luke aka chef wiz and I’m currently following in your footsteps from watching these videos and stayed up to watch this final episode. I’m dipping my feet in the mechanical world and took your advice. I’m working on a 110cc quad and currently looking for a steering wheel! This would be such an awesome conversation and nostalgia to talk about these videos and show them the steering wheel. Literally a massive fan boy right now bro!

[@lannigaming616]

This series has been amazing, watching with my 11 year old son ive spent most of the year in hospital and since spending time together after so long we have been watching this every step of the way thank you for giving us some content that we can watch together merry Christmas.

[@auscarphotography]

[@Shoumeiki]

This has been the most fun build series I've seen in a while.

[@dontpunchrocks]

[@smokey_ksa_112]

I loved the will you have and your confidence in yourself in this series. Many people would have stopped because the first engine had failed. Thank you. I always enjoy watching your series that challenge the impossible, such as the FEVO and this series, of course. I wish you the best.❤❤

[@adrianfernandezperez8740]

Well done, it's been extremely enjoyable to watch this project.

[@Disabled_Toad]

The build and daily vlogging was fantastic, I can see you put so much hard work into the build and it payed off, This build was sweet and I'm probably going to build up one in the near future, and your fab skills have gotten so much better. Merry christmas mate. (thanks for the turbo to) Yew 🤟

[@xmrwr1ght928]

Mad love bro your daily Vlogs have became a routine to me at this point it’s gonna be sad to see it go I don’t normally say this but you’ve helped me through a lot in the pass couple of weeks you don’t understand Merry Christmas bro❤

[@Weidner36]

You guys are amazing. I'm currently in rehab bettering my life and your videos get me threw the days. Keep up the toy fabrication.

[@itsmikelake]

Leonard, congrats on making the effort to better yourself my friend. I appreciate the kind words. Keep pushing homie & merry Christmas ❤️

[@nfal6538]

Loved the series bruv keep up the good work hope to see some more amazing content in the future

[@tommymorel6509]

Sad to see the cart finally finished! Bitter sweet moment since you get to fully enjoy it now! Love the content and kept me captivated all the way through! Sending merry Christmas wishes from Canada! 🍁

[@MRONETEN]

I think you should put a wheelie bar on that so the wheelies will be long and freakin’ epic! And that drift kart is absolutely bonza awesome job Mike!!

[@carterpaschal5895]

I love the cart and watching the videos every night has been a great way to end my night. I had a trip early in the morning so i watched one video at night didnt sleep and caught this one! I was so happy. Love the video series, sad to see it go

[@vxrlorxnxrreal]

i am happy that i discovered this series. it was really fun watching this kart coming together

[@TheMustafaish]

Really entertaining build series!! Now the tuning can begin .) I think the engine would thank you if you slap on an oil cooler- Looks like there is room for one between the battery and fuel tank. Merry shenanigans!

[@jamesstobbs6999]

Put a Reg plate on the pink bit at back of seat

[@Downshift13]

It’s wilder than I thought !!!!!!! That’s so cool man. Really inspiring to make my own and also learn how to weld, such a useful car guy skill. Can’t wait to watch the next build whatever it is!

[@baeiv1048]

Man i’ve watched all the series on this kart and have loved them all it is so cool how far you have some with this drift machine im so happy that i found your youtube and this series about the drift kart so happy that you guys got it done, that thing is so crazy hope to see more of this in the future

[@JackMittenn]

Congratulations on the sick drift cart bro, i’ve loved watching this series as it shows that you don’t need to be a professional welder or fabricator to make something so sick it’s all about persistence and a vision. keep on that grind bro. love the content

[@cruz160]

That cart was the best to watch sound was so awesome pls keep the cart keep going never let it die grate job on the cart

[@alexmagarelli368]

that drift kart looks mental!!! you should build a budget seat time drift car and give it away as next project!

[@Josh_Wilson]

Never Did I Think I'd Be More Keen To Watch A Quad Bike More Than Watching Adam Lz But This Takes The Cake Well Done 🤘

[@itsmikelake]

Bro, this is the biggest compliment, thank you! I absolutely love adams stuff haha. Merry Christmas brother 🥰

[@Willthechill3]

Thanks so much for the daily uploads you have made me fall in love with your Chanel. I will continue watching your video for as long as you still make them. Keep doing what you’re doing it’s awesome!!!!

[@seanriglin3527]

These 12 days leading up to Christmas has been amazing watching this thing come to life. All the way from Lincolnshire England I've been searching Facebook marketplace ever since I starting watching. Can't wait to build my own drift kart 😂 Merry Christmas 🎄🎁

[@grimairbrush]

i so want that red wheel for our project lancer!!!!! great build and looks gangs of fun!, just a tip, you may need to add a set of wheelie bars at the rear with some small wheels, your running a very small wheelbase with the motor central -> rear of the kart therefore the front will launch, the only other way to get past this is to extend the wheelbase, but since you want to keep it short, run a set of wheelie bars to prevent it going over.

[@hatton992]

It’s been a pleasure and have a great Christmas and new years !! What a great episode!

[@bryanfrancois811]

Respect from Connecticut USA.. you inspire me to work on my 2005 Dodge Ram 5.7 hemi truck.. and maybe eventually a ATV to have in the bed of my truck. Cheers🎉have a great day 🤠

[@ryanwalker388]

Can you show the KE70? at 4:40? I love the old corollas.

[@mauronunes2330]

Man I have to say this dirft kart is insane, it has been awesome watching you get this far with everything, I enjoy your content keep up the amazing work

[@Theo22317]

Hey Mike, still trying my luck with the steering wheel haha. Anyway the new modifications are sweet and I would love to see the future of this build. Next time I would buy a semi automatic engine to not worry with the clutch

[@benkappaa]

Finally seeing it run made me so happy! I love the daily vlogs but i know its hard to make so im grateful in a way. The steering wheel is pretty cool if i win it ill be using it on my upcoming fiat 131 build this summer. It will be so cool wit the red alcantara seats imo. Hope you keep up the work❤

[@herbertbouvard4546]

Absolutely loved this series!!! PLEASE keep it going its been my daily ritual, I look forward to every video. PS TURBO AND NANG NOS (with push buttons on steering wheel for more steering safety control and fast furious action!) Hope you and your missus have a great chrissy

[@callumhennessy8617]

Your videos always give me such motivation for drifting and making it happen! Keep doing what your doing and keep killing it! Thanks for brightening up everyone's Christmas. Hopefully I'll see you at a comp someday and tap doors 🤙

[@georgemasouris4006]

This project has been insane! It has been so fun watching these videos! I have always wanted to make a go kart and seeing you make one makes me happy. Merry Christmas!

[@Jack_N828]

Sounds like you might need to tune the carb, but other than that it looks so fun. Thanks for doing the 12 days of Mikemas it has been so fun to watch have a great Christmas with your friends and family and have a great rest of the 2023 year. Have fun

[@JacquesDavidSteyn]

Very well done Bru that little thing is freaking amazing and those little pops and crackles is just the cherry on top 🤙🤙

[@harleyfidge18]

Absolutely loving the daily uploads been great seeing the progress of the drift kart 💪💪

[@zadenrubock6400]

The carts finally done! Done some absolutely amazing work these past 12 days and its sick to finally see finished build. btw i reckon that steering wheel would look sick on my brothers commy, but it would look sicker on the drift cart😂

[@RobRichards584]

Been a great effort & a ton of fun, Merry Christmas hope everyone has a great one.

[@LyndonMouritsen]

Sad to see the series end but can’t wait for the next video from you your videos never disappoint me.

[@newname1424]

I love the 12 day series and rally sad to see it go. I have been watching since you got the 50cc kids four wheeler. And you have inspired me to go out and build one as well. Your videos are super good and keep up on what you are doing. Over all thinks for all the videos that you have done when ever you post my day gets a little bit better. Keep doing what your doing and have happy holidays.

[@boziewz6125]

Ill be honest, NVER seen your channel before, until the first of these 9 vids. I will definitely be looking through the rest of your videos, this was àn absolutely epic build.

[@christopherdoros620]

Absolutely have loved and enjoyed the the series being able to come home each day from work and to have a new video each night waiting for me to enjoy watching you slowly build this epic machine from being a blown up 2 stroke to a 4 stroke being able to wheelie. Sick build bro enjoyed it to much maybe even build one someday 🎉🎉🎉

[@Tmuller05]

Thanks for the biggest laughter and smiles from this gnarly little weapon!!

[@itsmikelake]

Thanks for supporting bro! ❤️

[@GnarbageBag]

[@bartobuilt2601]

Merry Xmas Mike and Crew. My 10 y/o son is obsessed with this build. So i know we will be building one now. I think a Gentsuki 50cc Scooter build would be epic!

[@RyanSheehy-ri2ok]

I love this drift cart build so awesome to show just how easy it is to do it thanks mike for all the content hope I see more In future

[@AspenSingh-l9w]

my favourite build series all time i love your dedication to this and it has been amazing to watch keep up the extortionary work 👍

[@jachoppa]

Hey Mike. Thanks for the series. My 5 year old and i have enjoyed every day of it. My son Orlando really wants to build one now...but we live in suburban area so maybe an idea for another series is a budget silent drift trike/kart? Electric maybe? Love to see something like that to build with my son. Josh

[@raf_oce5069]

hey mike, your videos are amazing and every day when i get home from work i wait to watch your videos. especially these mini series. keep up the amazing work and merry christmas to you and your family. love

[@jaydenhaberfield6297]

[@SuperDaruben]

This series was amazing, sad to hear it is over now. Also really like the end result and the burn out you did. Enjoyy ur christmas 🎄

[@kidwithmask4744]

You inspired me and my brother so much that we are building one and we are finding medal scraps and a engine to build it so we are watching and trying to build it in my dad's garage
