[@ashleymongiovi4543]

I swear the “We love you annnd GOD Blesss✋🏽” at the end of EVERY video is just such a genuine feeling of love and gratitude from y’all💜 so refreshing to have no drama, no clickbait and just that family fun vibe. I know one day soon y’all are gonna be so much bigger; “Red Beard Garage” will be just as common as GPS or Texas speed💯

[@FreedomotorsportsLlc]

There already there, I remember when they had 1200k subscribers for quite some time, this guy deserves at least 3 million more...

[@ashleymongiovi4543]

@@FreedomotorsportsLlc in KZbin followers yes but I mean as a household name; as in when you think of go karts, mini bikes, sxs, etc. I wish for them the same kind of nationally renown quality and production. KZbin is only the shallow end of the pool for them as I see it

[@kingtiptip8400]

This channel is very underrated

[@MrScott-rr9ld]

Thanks for coming in there for your followers. Prayers needed for my state of Ky. Mayfield, Dawson Springs, Benton KY and Brookport Illinois

[@cliftonlong6735]

My son got me watching your vids, he's really into you're channel. I build rc cars out of 3/16 & 1/4 steel tubing because I'm disabled, but my son likes to mimic your work and he's really good, but he has to go to the town over from us to have everything welded. He has to load up everything in his truck to pay a welder to put it together. He's working in my garage right now on a kart with a engine out of a Honda Foreman 400 with reverse. The bike was donated to him because it was mangled when it fell off a trailer going down the highway. The engine hasn't been started since the accident and I'm praying it starts with no issues, because he's going to be broken hearted if it doesn't after all his work. Please keep him in you're prayers! Luv your work!

[@gregswafford9839]

Who doesn't like a new video from Red Beards garage. Thanks for fueling hobby for us all and for more information as always.

[@larrybreuer4495]

You were not wrong…that cage is 1000% better than the original! 👍👍❤️

[@gonracn]

I want to add IRS to my 150cc buggy and never thought about just buying a whole setup from GPS. Like the idea of saving time so thanks for sharing!

[@almost_engineering6255]

Check my buggy out! It’s got a similar set up in the rear but with a 600 triple snowmobile engine!

[@BradVentureAZ]

I flippin LOVE that you have made such a business out of building and modding go carts !!! Please don’t stop !

[@Silver-tip]

Me daughters and I watch your videos all the time we are building a costume golf cart easy go every time I watch your show I end up in the shop for the rest of the night

[@morgunfreedom4346]

It's crazy how much changing the cage fixed this karts attitude

[@sethbarber770]

The new roll cage made it look so much better

[@AppalachianMountainRiders]

Cage looks sooooo much better! Im a SxS guy and thats what my channel focuses on but you, as well as channels like cars and cameras, rather b welding, ect, have inspired me to do a gokart build this winter! Going to be powered by a 135hp superbike engine i have lying around! Keep on building and keep on inspiring creaters like me!

[@jacobbatchelor6166]

Ready to see the final product on this sick custom buggy!

[@brenthazen]

the candy kart is my fav. stay with big blocks and twins. keep up the good work and God Bless. and may God bless America!

[@AmfP_89]

That cage made a huge difference. And the tube bender is sick

[@chriscullison7833]

That cage is so much better than the original, changes the whole look. Keep up the awesome work.

[@uncledingovlogs]

Couldn't agree more. Sometimes less is more with cages

[@josephwantz4035]

Hey guys I just wanted to say that u guys have inspired me to build go karts I didn't know much about engine's but watching you over the last couple of years I have learned so much from your videos.the funny thing about it is my step dad is a small engine

[@josephwantz4035]

Mechanic and he will not help me do anything I had to learn self-taught

[@RedBeardsGarage]

Well thank you for supporting the channel! I'm glad we could be some help.

[@joshmiedema13]

Either of those gifts would be amazing for my kids mini build.

[@mongowilson]

Love the build I think I will get a set of the trailing arms for my build. Thank you for being unashamed (as Phil Robertson says ) of your faith. It has been awesome to see how the Lord has blessed you and your family. Thank you for great videos and God bless.

[@smallgaragebigdreams6032]

I've always thought these karts just needed a roll cage redo! Awesome work as always! Gooood blessss👏

[@jeffreytowers3326]

The roll cage definitely made a drastic change!!!!!!!

[@trumpfancardanostakepool4737]

That cage fitment was satisfying to watch.

[@dennylaudermilk6876]

I've been watching your channel about 6 months now. You guys are great at what you do.

[@mkuhlman77]

Cage looks way better now. I can wait to see her in action.

[@Blackfooter]

You and Lonnie give us all so much inspiration and humor. Thank you guys for all you do!

[@uncledingovlogs]

Him and Lonnies relationship is hilarious 😂 always has me busting up

[@brianknepp8340]

I've enjoyed watching you grow through the years, and appreciate the great family safe content. Your videos are always a joy to watch.

[@nathaniellangston5130]

Just bought a welder for my dad (and for me...) for Chrismas!! SUPER stoked to start making crappy versions of everything you guys build on this channel!!!!

[@johnmizell1842]

Great Job. Looking forward to seeing something powder coated come out of the shop for the first ride.

[@delandbrooks3291]

Great looking cart. Those swing arms are sweet for those that don't have a welder or weld well enough to trust their own.

[@johncornele121]

It's my first time ever responding but I listen to you guys everyday I'm trying to get ahead of the game so I can prescribe to your channel but I watch you everyday you and cars and cameras and Discovery channel is the only thing I watch when I get home from work until I go to bed I'm building a dirt track go-kart with a 212 predator on it now I love your channel if it wasn't for you I couldn't be doing what I'm doing to my go-kart thank you from the bottom of my heart God bless

[@jeffreyanderson5760]

I always thought the cages and the front bumpers on those carts were ugly. you did such a good job on that cage I don't even think the front looks that ugly anymore.

[@markelbrooks]

I started watching you guys about 6 weeks ago. I’ve already been to Go powersports twice.🤦🏾‍♂️ Your videos are the best!👍🏾

[@adambass3781]

Great job. You guys inspire building carts with my boys. They love watching. We have 3 that we are modifying and my 14yr old is trying to build from scratch. Thank you again for good godly examples

[@crankykjun1]

Can't wait for the completed cart, it's going to be sweet....

[@PatriotPainter]

Massive difference! It's amazing how much a different roll cage changes the look. Looks sweet!

[@uncledingovlogs]

Couldn't agree more

[@Tina4jlo]

LOVE the FACT that Your WIFE Videos for You!!! God Bless You & Your Family & Merry Christmas!!!🎄🎁 🎄

[@frankgeimer5952]

Great job on the new Cage!! I can't wait to see it finished! God Bless you one and all!!

[@amymadison1767]

i enjoy your videos and respect your work ethic i also got saved and gave my life to the LORD 4years ago and i applaud you for sharing your story

[@3rdGenCoyota]

I saw the Harley powered cross kart at PRI. Simply amazing fabrication! Great videos and great job Red Beard!

[@aaronallison9815]

The IRS looks so sick on this buggy. Roll cage looks great too 👍

[@lloydbaker7099]

Of course the candy cart is looking sweet

[@Simon1adventures]

Awesome build. I myself just got me a project Polaris 110 to get running and let my son play with.

[@debbiephillips9066]

We have watched your videos for years! Thank you.

[@Todd8inch82]

Cage is looking amazing, loving those grab handle gussets. Strength and utility in one.

[@uncledingovlogs]

Agreed!!

[@jasonworthley2526]

That roll cage turned out so sick. That is going to be a blast.👍👍

[@saiedhussain8314]

Love the build and the channel. Thank you for the help and diys and inspiration!

[@mikecrozier6782]

Me and my son loves watching ur channel and my son wants me to build him one now.

[@lukesizemore1170]

Looks awesome! Anxious to see the rear suspension in action and see how it performs.

[@evolution090808]

Another job well done! Looks much better! Love the way you do your layout work! Can't wait to see the next one on this one!

[@brandonflageolle2720]

Looking great! I really like how you systematically do your builds and making them look good!

[@Warheadrevo]

I never win anything but it's worth a shot. Love the builds! Has inspired me to work on and make some custom stuff. Currently working on a flat bed for my classic 1988 Dodge D350.

[@rjewing850]

Might I suggest Bend-Tech for tube bending. It's a reasonably priced CAD program that will make bending a breeze, skipping the floor and chalk layout. I must say, you do have the floor and chalk down and that cage fit together nicely.

[@onthisepisodeofwhiteish3288]

You rock red. You taught me most of my small engine knowledge, thanks for everything y’all do. Marry Christmas to you and the red beard team.

[@uncledingovlogs]

Nobody has better engine building videos than Red Beard!

[@InnocentMiscreant]

The way this thing is set up is definitely unique and cool

[@karyhooper4627]

RBG, Y’all Rock. It’s looking awesome. The Independent suspension is sweet. Even my Big 300lb butt could hang with my kids go karts and have fun with this sweet ride. Merry Christmas 🎄 from Bradley County, TN.

[@ajgaskin6322]

I love what you do. You honestly helped change my life. You inspired me to do my own builds and it became my passion. I’m still a kid but I’ve learned so much from doing my own builds and working on engines. You are what helped start it all for me when I stumbled upon your videos like 2 years ago. Since then I’ve learned so many valuable life skills and skills that I want to make a career out of. So thank you for helping me find my passion

[@uncledingovlogs]

Pretty cool to hear dude!! Keep pushing👊🏼

[@lukesizemore1170]

Fine and dandy, like a hard KANDI Christmas 🎄🎄☃️☃️!!

[@anthonyguenther6008]

Amazed by every project you all do.

[@jasonjones351]

Ready to build mine soon. Always was a buyer never a builder. I weld like the rocky mountain look..... but I try.

[@MrScott-rr9ld]

That's a sick cage build video. Can't wait to build my own custome roll cage.

[@dillondixon507]

Can’t wait to see how it turns out so dope so far

[@ronwhy4893]

Your videos are definitely Epic. Junkyard digs recommended your videos. Appreciate the great content. And you're definitely making me want to build something of my own. Just have to start buying the tools to do it. Thank you once again for your content. And hope that you and your beautiful family have a blessed Christmas and happy holidays.

[@FishinBuddy]

Love the Prime Weld stuff. Really good folks. Love the channel too!

[@charlesmartin8596]

Merry Christmas from my family to you and yours. Have a safe and wonderful holiday remember to keep your tree watered to prevent a bad situation from happening.

[@johnlee9332]

The way you did the cage is so much nicer. Love the channel

[@glenncombs9538]

The roll cage looks a lot better custom built keep up the good work and God bless

[@timmy4189]

[@impulsive_creator8694]

[@Toolingabout]

That ladder clip KILLED ME

[@Wilson_Racing]

Keep up the great work! Love seeing cool builds like this!

[@daywalker121800]

When I see the title pop up on any new video about this I see the IRS and briefly think someone is being audited. Lol. Good job guys. I dropped your name in the last couple orders from GPS as well. Thanks for the content!

[@RedBeardsGarage]

Thank you sir!!! Also that is the first thing that comes to mind when I see it too lol.

[@jasondeel3787]

I have wanted to build a cross kart scene I was 20 years old I'm 40 know and don't know if I'll ever get to that's why I love watching u and rather b. God bless and merry Christmas.

[@theroadkilledchicken]

[@rayrayadkins6178]

I really injoy watching the videos of you building go cart's
