I genuinely love and appreciate the little one liners. “Gee mister you’re really strong” and most recently “look at the butt on that” had me ROLLING. Thanks red beard you’re the 🐐

[@delandbrooks3291]

Nice to see Lonnie getting his own ride going!!

[@holtpage8226]

The multi stage builds like this are the best. I enjoy being able to see how I can upgrade as budget allows.

[@bubbanater1984]

Poor man’s side by side is the way to go and one of the best series.

[@jesseshelby4383]

Those wheels and tires made that buggy sick!

[@BradVentureAZ]

I love to see you guys pulling parts off the ‘scrap’ pile and reusing them !

[@ashleymongiovi4543]

I feel like these videos really show where y’all came from initially and how anyone could build up their rides step by step. It’s not always a quick build, sometimes you gotta start with whatever is more important and work your way down the list.

[@RedBeardsGarage]

I agree. We need to slow builds down from time to time to relate to people more often. We can never forget where it all started.

[@sareynoldssr]

I am really loving this build. I can't wait to see it rip. Hahaha 16:11 "he must work out!"

[@davidbame4792]

Love what your doing for Lonnie!

[@bubbasteele2991]

My opinion the best Videos are when yall play around & laugh. & get some stuff done. Maybe not always the most productive BUT having fun

[@jacobezell9521]

I don’t think your content is dead. It’s very much alive!!

[@Todd8inch82]

Love how it looks with those tires so much more aggressive

[@teamfrankenmerc]

You always have the best ideas and ways to complete them simply for the DIYs at home

[@ericshepherd5788]

I like these videos where you start with mild alterations it gives people more confidence that it's not as hard as you think. You never know unless you try

[@RedBeardsGarage]

This is a super fun build. I look forward to working on it every week.

[@Enigma-Sapiens]

Looking better all the time guys, great job so far!

[@coxandsonmachine2128]

Man I'm telling you that is turning into one sweet buggy. Loving the upgrades.

[@rene9392]

Love the long build vids. So much better watching y'all build things up in multiple segments

[@Skiridr22]

That buggy ready for the trails now 👍🏾👍🏾

[@danielsells76]

Looking forward to seeing you ripping it around and to see what the next upgrade will be. Merry Christmas RBG Crew

[@RedBeardsGarage]

Merry Christmas to you too sir

[@micflynn1]

I like the way the frontend is made on that.

[@grizlypaws4091]

His buggy is getting sweet

[@lancesavageau8698]

Duces is looking great, nice to see Lonnie.

[@RedBeardsGarage]

Its always a fun time in the shop when Ole Lonnie is here

[@scottmcneely6488]

Have enjoyed watching your builds since the old days in the small shop. This episode is like your other upgrade shows, showing what can be done with a little time and money to put into a ride. How 'bout a "where we are now" on the HD powered cart, and the super charged cart? Keep up the good work.

[@mongowilson]

I love this build. It shows what you can do with a small amount of money. But it will also show what can be done with a little more money.

[@randytravis3998]

you guy's are doing a great job on the build ,, Please keep going on the build .. if you were closer too Western NY I have a small dirt track in my hay field ,, next summer putting a oval track in ,, have to remove the top soil too get down to the clay .. so with the rain and snow we have been getting it is a mud track ,, NEED fenders and glasses .. and a helmet ,, I have rolled 2 of my carts already on the track in the turns ,, Great Video ..

[@toddstewart9922]

The new wheels and tires make it look bad-azz!

[@lizzard7473]

So jealous of this build. Love what yall are doing! That thing is going to be sweet with the stroker!

[@TheAtkinsM]

Put those big tires on now!!! They look amazing!

[@BrokeBoyBuilds2020]

That is one heck of a go kart

[@lucasdailey5732]

That kart is sick. I’ll buy those old wheels and tires from Lonnie.

[@frankgeimer5952]

The Duese just gets better with every upgrade! Way to go Guys!!

[@kd8ocz]

That cart is coming together real nice Clark

[@bryduhbikeguy]

Need that little clip from Ace Ventura where he's bouncing along in the truck.That's what you 2 looked like.Merry Christmas Everyone !

[@matthewboyd443]

Keep going i enjoy this content more and more. Thanks to you guys i have been upgrading my son go cart. You guys rock.

[@bradweber6133]

The Ackermann angle is actually pretty simple. If you imagine your buggy driving in tight circles, and you draw a line for the travel of each front tire, you will find that the inner tire is traveling a much smaller circle than the outer tire. That smaller circle requires more angle to follow than the larger outer circle. If both tires are pointed the same direction then the outer tire needs to drag because it's too tight and the inner tire needs to drag because it's not tight enough. That's why the front slips and doesn't turn correctly. It's really that simple. It's similarly related to the purpose of a differential. The larger circle of the outer wheel is longer so that wheel needs to spin more times than the inner wheel.

[@scottoberhouse8602]

Looks more aggressive...can't wait to see more of the build

[@RedBeardsGarage]

One coming every week sir!!!

[@bapasrcadventures3619]

This is a cool build. Fun to watch the progress to make it better

This been a fun build to watch

[@michaelwilen42]

I like these builds the best as most of us don't have all of the equipment available or knowledge to build one from the ground up. You folks do a fine job in all of your builds. Nice work and happy holidays

[@RedBeardsGarage]

That's what I was going for when I planned out this series. Thank you for watching!

[@jasonworthley2526]

That is so cool.

[@allmotorz1345]

Love the full size two seater builds and would love to see a 466 in it.

[@gonracn]

Love this style- hopefully with this style you can put out videos more often also. Higher frequency of new content would be my biggest ask!

[@RedBeardsGarage]

That's what we have planned for this coming year.

[@erictucker7026]

I’d love to find one of those to build!!!

I like the upgrade videos

I can't wait to see where this build ends up! Really sick machine!! Merry Christmas to you guys! You gained a new follower today for sure! Always watched the videos but you definitely have a new subscriber!

Thank you for subscribing! Hope you find lots of content you enjoy! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

One of the best go karts out there is the duece

[@MrScott-rr9ld]

This reminds me of my build. So ready to dive deeper into it.

[@RedBeardsGarage]

There addicting that's for sure

[@MrScott-rr9ld]

@@RedBeardsGarage I inherited a mini antique lath to piece together, a 12 ton hand hydraulic pipe bender and a few other odds and ends. Really looking forward to see just what I can do.

[@kwatt-engineer796]

I really enjoy the videos on your channel. They are the most informative I have found on you tube on building /modifying off road karts. I am using information gleaned from your channel for My current side by side off road build. (Double wishbone front, swing arm rear with Duromax 454 and TAV 40). I am having to build in modules so I can get it out of the basement. The front suspension module has adjustable suspension height and adjustable coil over geometry. This is my approach to compensate for my lack of experience in choosing the best parts for the build. If you are interested in seeing this effort I could email photos. Your comments would be welcome if you wanted to make any. At any rate, this has been a fun learning / building experience. I have built simple karts powered by Predator 212s in the past.. So, this is a huge step up from that. Thanks for sharing your experience with us. I am in awe at the speed you can fabricate and build your carts.

[@hondamanatc4life983]

Awesome build I need to get started on my build got a one cedar go-kart one wheel pill want to do a straight axle conversion to it but haven't figured out what axle to get yet and I still need to remount the motor mount and figure out what I'm going to run on it

[@nathannero9338]

Awesome! I feel like a front rack would be sweet and function too

[@RedBeardsGarage]

We set it on there and its too ugly lol

[@nathannero9338]

@@RedBeardsGarage ok haha. Maybe you can come up with a custom one. I feel like this buggy would look extra badass with the spare tire mount you were discussing and all loaded up with extra fuel cans and what not. I’m just getting an overland vibe from this

[@mopartshemi]

My customer has the same manco we took the trailing arms off wire wheeled TF out of it and drilled and installed a grease fitting filled it with grease and cycling the suspension until it came out of the sides. Also has the same RX7 lol

Sounds like that guy knows how to live lol

I bought those same wheels for my Japanese mini truck off of buggies unlimited. Looks sweet!

I'm not sayin you're boring but the episodes with Lonnie are more entertaining with the witty banter
