The Polaris Indy Sport 340cc dirt snowmobile returns! This Snowmoquad, as it is called, is a Polaris 340cc 2 stroke snowmobile converted to run on the dirt. The front snowmobile skis were replaced by wheels and tires, and it uses the same factory track in the rear. Today, we revive the Snowmoquad and race it around the CarsandCameras Grand Prix, then we bring it to Mini Mayhem to return it to it's original owner!
Thanks for Watching!

For Charles and family subject. He is a great addition to your team at cars and cameras. I hope I speak for all the audience when I say that he should be compisated for his participation maybe more than an hourly rate if he is not already. I always look forward to what he has to add to what I already love watching your channel. His added humor is a great addition to an already awesome channel!
Charles is awesome, the channel wouldn't be the same without him at this point in my opinion!
Charles has been an awesome addition. The idea with the ornaments is so he can connect directly with subscribers who want to support him. Basically it’s part of his year end bonus. Thanks for the feedback
Charles is too humble, he knows more than he let's on just so he doesn't step on anyone's toes! He knows more than he let's on for sure
@@richardperrin9374I totally agree, I do this same exact stuff with little engines toys like go carts,mini bikes or motorized bicycles lol. But I tore down my first engine to like a 60 something Corvair that have been parked for 30 years behind my dad's Barn when he lived in Augusta Texas in the mid-90s , it was left there from the previous owners but I asked him if I could mess with it, and I was around 11 or 12 and grabbed his toolbox and sockets and went back there and learned that the car was weird cuz the engine was in the back LOL but I tore that motor halfway down and got the Pistons moving put it back together and it ended up running and I was allowed to drive it around the red dirt roads that went on for miles out in East Texas, so that's also when I learned how to drive a stick shift can't remember if that was the three on the tree or what it was prayer but anyway I've been messing with car engines and all that my whole life I never went to school on that, not ASE certified but I don't really let anybody touch my cars most of the newer ones don't know how to really do a good diagnostic they completely rely on computers and I have a 1990 Ford F-150 with the 5 L with a 5-speed that has 312,000 original miles and it's never even had the heads off. And it's transmission is original, it's a little tiny bit sloppy but overall not bad considering the mileage, it's just fine no grinding no whining and it blows cold AC in my face and hot heat up my feet and it's completely 100% reliable and everything works even the cruise control so you'd be surprised with some people might know I loved it anyways but I really had to learn it cuz I was a single parent for 20 years and I had to keep my vehicles going so I could go to work take care of my kids and I couldn't afford to pay some shopping to do something I could do myself for $70 you know?
I want you to know that I’m vicariously living my shade tree, backyard bucket list through you guys. Recently retired and disabled, I’m counting on you guys to do some of the crazy sh!t that I would have done had common sense and good judgement prevented me from accomplishing. Love you guys.
Glad you enjoy the show Gary!
You guys have some of the most sketchy stuff to ride. But honestly…I’d ride them all! 🤘🏻
in my case, it's my wife's good sense... but yeah, vicariously through carsandcameras, I get to see what it's like to hoon around on what my dear wife calls "damned fool death machines"
What about ditching the track, and turning it into a 6 wheeler (back 4 drive) ? Would be an interesting build!
Once again Charles shows that his heart is that of a true Hero, and I mean a capital-h Hero
RIP Snowmoquad, ya had a good run😬
Hey I got something perfect for your channel and there is pretty much nothing on RUclips about it. It's the world's biggest go kart. Was only made for 2 years and takes a predator 670
Build one for mudding 😅 with some scoops
dang boys...that coulda went bad right cher. Great content as always tho gentlemen. Godspeed
Isaac dude I need help on Maddog icebear. I will pay for services rendered. An you probably are the best small engine guy around. I'm local
i have 2 of them for you guys ive bin asking for years now!!!
Aye man I live in Wisconsin and do a lot of snowmobile type stuff and let me just tell you right now that track is in perfect running condition compared to some of the stuff I've had. The weather cracking your seeing on the edge of your track is absolutely nothing to worry about. Unless you have a 200hp snowmobile and are spinning the track at ridiculous speeds
It’s fun to watch you southern boyz discover a snowmobile.
I have a retired Polaris race sled liquid cooled similar to yours. Yours is a fan.
I can’t believe you haven’t stuck the sliders to the track yet. 😆
Add more bogey wheels on the suspension rails. Your slides could be sticking a lot from being hot. The wheels could really help
Isaac and Charlie’s are the dream team behind cars and cameras, keep ol’ dude behind the camera.
That’s me popping a wheelie on the mini bike at 41:03! I thought it’d spin in the mud. It did not
Please be careful guys!! I love watching you have fun, not recuperating.
I know it's not my place but I hope Charles makes a nice living doing this, for him and his family.
It’s absolutely your place to say that brother! Freedom of speech, first amendment!!
@tntproductions2504 thanks my fellow American! I know sometimes words over a tect can be taken out of context I just try to be respectful in all aspects the best I can!
Yeah, the ornaments are part of his year end bonus
@CarsandCameras that's Great to hear hope you all have a great holiday. We'll deserved to you all!!!
I hope I can get one before they're gone. I love Charles. Dude always has me laughing my ass off and he's a solid dude who deserves nothing but the best. I'd also love to see you guys turn a jetski into a quad with the wheels sticking out the bottom of the body so it looks like it's a normal jetski 😂
Great Video! This was so much fun! thanks for sharing!
Reminds me of many tears ago in my early 20s: I had a hobby of putting chainsaw engines on bikes and rode them basically everywhere. I live in Michigan so winter was usually for other toys and driving. One day I strapped a Ziffy Whomper sled to the front wheel with a rectangle cutout for the front tire to inset into, bungee cords to both handles and up to the brake assembly to both allow a little flexible lean, but also to keep the wheel stationary. I set out one morning to head towork on it right after a huge snowstorm dumped a foot overnight, it rode like a dream with the Homelite XL925 screaming away out back on a Golden Eagle bike motor kit. Steering was amazing, brakes not so much. Overall it was excellent and I made it the 10 miles in no time flat, with lots of funny looks by people. When I flew in to the parking lot there were my main guys on the crew...I was all happy and was like "look at this thing, crazy fun -rides great...I call it the Snowmobike" wothout even a pause my best friend Tyler pipes up "The Homobike?" ...a round of hilarious laughter permeated the cold morning air 😂
Thank you for the reminder and excellent videos
As a motorized bike guy,I'd love to have seen it.Just in case you want another...They make a kit for bikes with an 85cc chainsaw cylinder.The 3rd version lasts now as rings caught before.So strong the regular clutches Can't handle the power band kick in.
@bryduhbikeguy I've built literal hundreds of motorized bikes as I did it as a hobby and a side business since I was 13 (1992) --many were cheap chinese/s korean/japanese 2 and 4 stroke 50- 80cc (66.6cc really) kits. I've moved on to electric hub motor conversion kits now, but still have some bikes with the golden eagle kit which I've found to be the best. They're hard to get and pricy, but awesome as you can use any engine and they use a belt drive like an old whizzer motor bike.
Races are seldom won in turn 1, but they are often lost there! Great video, as always, guys!
You guys should build a gokart designed to do massive burnouts. Then take it to Cleetus and Cars and enter the burnout comp!
They'd have to build a go-kart with a firewall and some beefy fenders and front brakes but I'd love to see it I'd also like to see them in a freedom 500 race.
I don't think they need to build one because the suzuki Mower Kart already burns some serious rubber.
Might need to revive tin lizzy…
@@CarsandCamerasplease do this it would be insane content.
I’d get in touch with Cleetus first so you don’t end up missing something with health and safety/tech inspection but Damn it would be a fun build to watch
@@CarsandCamerasif you have issues with that snowmobile rear end you should make it a double axle in the back so a six wheeler and you can easily link the two axles with just two of the same size sprockets off to the side so the one being driven by the front the front wheel drive the rear one you know and then basically that entire front end setup is probably awful for that. It probably do better with some A-frames and some stabilizer bars going to some pivot knuckles what's the suspension the two shocks be in sitting just over the engine or in front of it but those are a pretty easy effective way for really good suspension I got the idea off of one of my RC cars and I'm about to utilize that and put it on this old Carter two-seater that was like an excellent excellent condition give it to me for free by my daughter's best friend. Her and her sister wrote it a bit when they were kids but there wasn't any really men around that knew how to take care of it because the girls didn't and eventually they're having trouble getting it started and they stopped riding it and they parked it in the shed where it was left for 15 years are probably more like 10 or 12 years but someone had snagged the engine off of it years ago but everything else is there including all four original dry rotten tires that still held air . I have one question, is it difficult to switch it to a live axle cuz it's currently the original one-wheel peel with a drum brake but I have parts to convert it to disc and four new tires like six ply tires and I stripped it down and I'm going to paint it with my paint sprayer and like some car paint. Cuz this is actually a pretty nice Carter and I haven't been able to find the exact one online as of yet and the serial number sticker just wasn't even legible but it's heavy duty in the seat goes back and forth and all that and has two side guards but I think the upper ones are meant to put in cushion which is what I'm going to do so it's more like a bucket seat for two and I'm probably going to roll a a run a roll bar behind the seat just in case there is a flip whether I'll make a cage or not I don't know I don't want to add any more weight than I have to but I think I'm going to have to stretch the frame a little in order for the seat to be back just where it's comfortable and then room for a bigger motor I'll just run a 212 I think at first but it's probably easier than I can go on Craigslist or Facebook Marketplace and get a junk dirt bike or older 200 250 350cc motorcycle engine with gears if you know what I'm talking about. A death trap😂
Me and my dad did this a few years back and you’d be surprised how long that track will hold up even on pavement
Sure but it still will wreck it in no time compared to what it would do in snow. And those tracks are hella expensive new, least around here. Another thing is the other parts like slide surfaces on the bottom. Those are not made for dirt and will get eaten up. Top of that unless its full wheel system like in really old sleds those slides are meant to be lubricated by snow, so added friction will harm both driving experience well as sled it self. Honestly if you are going to build something like this, just put a axle and wheels at the back and you are better off than ruining tracks for no good reason. If you are in soft boddy area or lots of mud, make your own tracks instead. Note also the cooling system. Those are meant to be driving in frost conditions and water cooled ones have radiator in the tunnel roof, meant to be thrown snow to cool it. On summer there is no cooling to mention and not many places to put car radiator. Air cooled have similar problem where those run too hot on summer, so you can only adjust mix rich to cool it off with fuel, witch increases fuel consumption.
So take a go cart and engine swap it with this instead of ruining whole thing, specially with the older sleds people might want to buy spare parts from.
I could not have said it better myself. Here in N.C. If you are lucky enough to come across a sled 1 grass drag it 550’ runs with cool down between runs. 2 Transplant into a wheeled vehicle and allow the engine to show you its potential. Snowmobile’s are designed for snow you can overheat them and melt the slide-rails on glare ice.
Everyone try help Charles out , John and ike are rich Charles needs it and he works the hardest
Maybe John can help Charles out?
I've seen a few of these at the drag strip, they can be pretty fast.
great stuff guys thanks
Crazy looking craft, instant subscriber. Goodluck guys
Heart = warm. Love the support for charles. Good move guys
Had visions of the cartoon the Pink Panther. "As long as i keep hearing it running and revving up" Charles, until the sled comes out of the woods without Ike and it begins chasing you down the road! LMAO! 😂😂😂
I'm soo glad you guys are having fun and enjoying each others company. 🙏 Remember you guys are each others family and friends, some would despise something as simple as a go-kart to ruin each others relationship! Love ya videos! Truly underrated channel ❤
Nice to see this rig out again
The Polarious Snow-Mo-Quad lives!
This was cool to watch. Thanks...DVD:)
Looking good. Great job guys 👍👍
Charles and Isaac videos reminds me of the early days of John and isaacs madness concoctions
You the man Chuck!
That tracks just fine for a 340 it's like brand new
Hey I've got a special sxs that was only made for 2 years. It takes a predator 670. It's pretty much the biggest go kart that was ever made. It needs a motor but would love for yall to build it. I'll sell it really cheap. They is hardly any info online about it. Perfect for your channel. Having a hard time getting ahold of yall.
What about a "cold lap" on an genuine snowmobile in winter time?
Nice job as always boys!
Yins guys rock. Great video
Love your videos
How is it that Ike always says "it's a fuel delivery problem" ... But he's always right🤣 It can't always be, can it?
Me: I rolled my pickup into a ditch.
Ike: I think it might be a fuel delivery issue!
Me: Well! It's upside-down, so you're not wrong🤷😂
Love these longer videos guys! Keep em coming!
We try to use the KISS method- keep it simple stupid for diagnosis problems. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve chased a fuel delivery issue or clogged air filter issue!
Was designed for use in snow, the track is lubricated by the snow, and the steering was designed for skis, but it did look like fun! Your buddy Kevin of Junkyard Digs was just having some fun with his dual engine go kart, I think a go kart with a snowmobile engine would be something he would get beat by.
The Slow-Mo-Weird! Yall rock, good sports!
Mr C is a national treasure and Oregon always approves!!
Yes we need to see a snow mobile build
Cool vid guys. And I heard that Pole barn garage reference.👍
Ike-"I don't see no signs of it being a 2 stroke"
GIANT expansion chamber setting dead in front of his face.......
LMMFAO!!! 😂😂😂
That track is nothing to worry about. It is reinforced with steel cable and nowhere near failure. I would be worried about the sketchy wheel spindles breaking.😂
I'd love to see more of this
Great job, Ike. You set the record for shortest time to destruction!
Those zerks fittings are a nice thing, and a pain.
Awesome video
Yay new vid
Happy birthday Mrs. Charles
NICE PLAD UNDIES CHARLES !!!
dang ike back at it again glad you are ok buddy.
I would love to see you guys get another similar snowmobile to have for non-snow use. Though I'd also say ensure it's one you can get new tracks cheaply enough for if need be.
I'm a new Yorker and id ride that track for another season or two. Id check the bogey wheels. Weve made grass drag racer sleds with similar setups. Thanks for the video
I don't know if the guy that got the snowmobile back has his own RUclips channel. But I've never heard of him or seen him. But he did seem to be a little having an attitude and things. Break gives him something to do now. He doesn't have to seem so down. He's got something to fix and improve on. Every failure is a positive because it's room for improvement. Love the channel guys keep up the great work. I'm hoping I can get one of those ornaments. There's the help out Charles such a great person. You guys are all great people and continue what you do I enjoy every minute I watch.
We used to drag race carts out in the country side roads, and this guy had a massive 800 two stroke from a snowmobile that was an absolute DEMON. That mf zipped off on everyone.
Nice save.
That track is fine
Got my shirt finally last weekend at the 180, one of these days for sure I'm coming to Busco...come with a paddle tire on my drag bike...
Unless you have actual rips in the track it’s not that bad. Sounds like you need to tighten up the track so the cogs don’t slip. Better yet, take the track off and add a couple of sprockets, rear axle and chain drive.
Strong words of advice "don't stand behind a snowmobile on stands because if the track brakes it will take off a person's lags. Love the project 🤘🏻
Gentlemen I think you have a restriction in your exhaust. Pop the exhaust off at the “ball socket “ at the Y pipe in front of the engine and start it. That should tell you. I’ve seen it a number of time here in Wisconsin. Mice love to live in the muffler. Been there !!
PS I’m only at the 20 min mark so if you have found it already. 👍👍
hell yea . had a 440 srx.
can you guys make a race where there is all minibikes racing on a small circle track with loads of jumps so that the bikes need rear suspention
Sounds sketchy😂
@@CarsandCameras Itll be fine
IkeI'm glad you didn't get hurt 👍👍
westport wa.state here.
funny story, took a couple of them to the local foot ball field to drag race . one thing led to the other. well we went up and down the bleacher . over the railing and in a pile at the bottom. dove for the ralling . man that was close call." good times" life is for the crazy.
I have a 98 atctic cat zr580.. i built wheel skis and put a slick drag track on. Ran it at mooresville a bunch back in like 08.. 09
When on snow, the snow melts and lubes the sliders the track runs on. Withput snow you need a water suply to lube the sliders. When snowmobilers want to drag race in the summer they mount a water source on the sled and run hoses down so water runs onto the sliders.
That wasn't a crash... That was a Rapid Unscheduled Dismount!
Everyone should use Sta-bil gas treatment I had gas last 1 and a 1/2 seasons no varnish my tiller started 2 pull. The stuff is Awesome.
Man y’all need another shop this one is getting full lol love the videos
Just picked up a Christmas ornament from Charles!! 🎉
Man I love the show. I’ve said it a million times. But how many rely on c n c. And others like Cleetus as only source of tv type entertainment. Haven’t had cable in years. Thanks guys.
Y'all should be paying Charles more so he doesn't have to make Xmas ornaments to make extra money!
I'll buy one to support Charles! He is my favorite guy on the channel anyway!
Love love it ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐👍👌💯
You got lucky on that accident 😅
Yes please I know I would like to see more of the snow quad action!!!💪
One of the best high sides ever!
I've done this and ran metal plates across track to try and save it a bit but it really didn't do much besides shoot sparks which was a fair trade
That thing looks like it could be a real fun ride fer sure
Come on boys!!! More snow mo-quad!! Find another and do a conversion!!!
Hey guys hello from the great white north where those sleds are made. The drive cog is slipping most likely because track is worn and the plastic pieces the run on the track hifax need snow or water to lube them. Or ad more bogey wheels.
Would like to see more of it!!!!
Definitely get another snowmobile that would be great 👍
The old gas reminds me of when I emptied a tank and was using it for fire starting and someone stole it! Hope they used it well!😂
Just ordered my ornament. I won the tool box. Use it everyday at work. People always ask about it
Fun project. I did grass (& snow) drags back in the 70's, we left the skis on, lots of fast sleds, lol! My Evinrude 650 triple wankel would do 120mph in the 1/4 mile, & there were faster sleds than that. Y'all might have to get your hands on a few, just for testing purposes, harhar! Thanx !
Snowmobiles need to have snow to lubricate the the hyfaxes/slide rails and the drive cogs. without snow the hyfaxes and the drive cogs will get really hot and they will melt and the track will stick to them. and sometimes when they cool down the track will release. and other times it will be stuck permanently. what a person has to do to operate a snowmobile on dry surfaces? is have to remove the hyfaxes and put bogey wheels on the slide rails. and the sled will do much better. I bought a sled once that the previous owners were riding it on the grass and it wouldn't even move. I ended up having to put new drive cogs and hyfaxes on it before I could take it for a ride. I was a snowmobile enthusiast for many years.
Im still waiting for you guys to revisit the Honduki project? I still think that machine has a lot of potential.
I remember when you got that. I was there!
Those front wheels made me think of Crazy Eyes in the movie Mr Deeds! lol
westport here getting busy. but will watch later sirs.
I have to say, that is the best crash-dismount so far, Isaac just stepped off and that was it, granted it wasn't that fast, but still, I'd have been flat on my arse if I did that I'm sure... :P
That noise the track is making is called ratcheting. That means the cogs on the driver are slipping. Also that blue strip right under the the rail at the bottom of the track is called a hyrax [slide rail] those melt away if there isn't snow to keep them cool and lubricated. Once the slide rail melts you will be running on metal to metal. Next is a fire truck! This thing is running on borrowed time.
The worst part about sleds not working is it’s normally like -30 when ur trying to fix them and your hands are numb and your buddies are trying to just tow you home but you’re convinced you can fix it but then your hands get even more numb and the sled gets more broken.
This looks soooooo sketchy... Love it.
It will buff out!!
I'm literally screaming at my TV right now trying to tell you it's crazy rich, not lean. Hire me and I'll move down there to be your snowmobile/2 stroke guru lol
something like this on the salt flats would be mental
Central California watching
I remember putting Ballin implemented tires in place of skies and a paddle belt to use on sand dunes
Smoked that trailing arm to
MM77 Approved 👍🏻👍🏻
