Definitely take it to The Freedom Factory. There's tons of space there, and Jeremy is a go kart guy too, so maybe you could get a 3 way collab going with Cleetus and Faster Proms. 🤷♂️
Yeah, dudes, reach out to Cleetus McFarland- he has an oval track he calls the Freedom Factory for a playground in Florida. Good weather this time of year! Hope your class scheds will flex- know even college has been a lot of "holding time " lately. Cleet should be finishing up a track resurface by now or will soon.
That clutch bearing is cooking itself because you have tension on it when you're not using the clutch. Just like on a motorcycle you always have a little slack in the clutch lever.
@@justinsolomon4427 if your cable is tight it will cook that bearing. Just like on a car the throw bearing has air gap to the clutch pressure plate when not depressed.
Usually on a motorcycle if the clutch cable doesn’t have a tiny bit of slack your probably actually slipping the clutch even when you think it’s fully engaged
The engine seems like it's running a little too lean, with the missing and blue flames. Could put an O2 sensor mount in the exhaust before the muffler to get some mixture measurements as you tune the carb. Tuning a carb is just make changes and see if it's better or worst.
@@dereksumstad6746 The blue color is the concern for me. In a piston engine, a rich back fire has yellow in it. Now, I do know rotary exhaust temps are way higher than piston engine...so maybe a rotary running rich is Blue and not yellowish. We tune 2 strokes carbs by soldering the jet closed and drilling few to the next size bigger or smaller till it 'felt' better. Just my 2 cents.
My 14 year old son races a OTK ROK 125cc and it is very fast. I would love to see this rotary kart up against it. We run C12 and I am sure the rotary would be faster running this fuel as well. I know there is a lot more power that can be had from that rotary. I would love to see you guys continue to fine tune it for more power. The right carburation helps a lot also
I hope you guys get a TIG welder soon. The work adapting that hydraulic fitting was really creative and it was amazing you got it done with a MIG. Another great one.
if they are welding together you do not have enough play in the clutch lever they should only touch when the clutch peddle is pressed to disengage power the rest of the time they should not be touching the bearing
The new lavalier mics we've been using make it hard to talk excited without being too loud, still working on getting used to it. It'll probably get better with time
LOL you never know what will work until you try! Nicely Done Guys!! I would suggest figuring out a metal spacer like maybe some Black Pipe cut to fit with a couple exhaust flanges welded on each end to keep it from flexing at all but other than that the Hydraulic cylinder you chose seems to work like a charm!! That thing RIPS!!
It was really fun watching this project come together. The asymmetrical design makes me think of the STP turbine car driven by Parnelli Jones at the 1967 Indy 500. I hope you find somewhere this cart can stretch its legs.
Dont use car oil in a motorcycle engine. Use motorcycle specific mptor oil. Car oils have additives that are to slippery for wet clutches. Its not good for the clutch in the long run. Even some synthetic motorcycle oils arent good for wet clutches. Use a regular motorcycle oil. Like honda gn4 10w40 as an example
I was talking with my brothar about rotary engine on a motorsport chassis Kart-Car. I said to him: -Man...I'm gonna look in RUclips to see if somebody has already done it. Oh, boy... I respect you!
Outstanding, I can't tell you how much I enjoyed that, especially the Allen Millyard-type fabrication stuff. No doubt I goes, I'd love to see it opened up on a track. Well done, boys!
That shifter kart sounds insane 😍😍😍😍 Honestly the best sounding Go Kart I've ever heard, honestly the best sounding Rotary engine I've ever heard. Keep up the great work. I'm actually a big fan of your channel, that college degree is definitely going to pay off. I really hope your channel blows up, you definitely deserve it. If your channel becomes a success, PLEASE DON'T BE A SELL OUT LIKE SOME OF THE OTHER CHANNELS. I enjoy watching the builds not watching people drive their exotics with the money they make from people watching them drive their exotics...smh. Thanks all you broke MFER'S out there supporting our success that you created by not getting off your ass and or not being able to afford it yourself....lmfao 🤣
The rotary kart is my favorite build from you guys! Glad you are working on it again! Also I like how the intro was you guys getting out the project you are working in the video. It gave us a really good shot of the build. Sort of cinematic looking.
Good shit guys!! I back you up 💯 percent on welding that banjo bolt!!! Ive done similar but with power steering lines where i had to cut and shorten lines. Keep up the good work!
Someone there really needs to learn how to TIG weld for all those small delicate jobs. I think they wil have issue with the short throw of the clutch pedal, the need a master cylinder that matches the slave in volume.
I'm new to your channel, this build is my favorite so far. So glad you took the time to build it right. Would love to see how it performs on a grandpri track where you could really wind it out to its full potential.
That is badass!! Sounds great although a 16g turbo with intercooler would be amazing for mid to top end or even a small supercharger for ridiculous take off and constant acceleration through the whole rpm range. Just an idea. Would be like a RX-7 and go cart hybrid
That is a sick ride! Well done! You need to try it on a road course somewhere. I can't imagine where you would get parts for a motor like that. Maybe from Europe?
this by far my favorite video from you guys , the thing spits flames and sounds so good , you could definitely rev it higher tho get that rotory sequel out of her
That motor can rev up way more than that. You should give it some more beans. You are shifting at around 5000 to 6000 rpm but it can do more than that without breaking a sweat. Try going till about 8000 or 9000 before you shift.
We're running this one from Amazon: www.amazon.com/Motorcycle-Universal-Hexagon-Exhaust-Motorbike/dp/B07SFFCLXG/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=hexagon+muffler&qid=1611112938&sr=8-1
The rotary just sounds so good in this application
There are only a few engines that sound good. Like this wankel and nitromethanol V8
@@qwertyximan no
@@iamincrediblystupidbut4364 no?
So true
Lmao glad to here I’m not the only one that thinks so
This is definitely the sickest shifter cart on earth
Yeah I don’t think my old 250cc 2 stroke homemade kart could even top this thing
Most def
as a rotor head. I agree
What about the ducarty you think it'll hold up if it was working
@@andrewjohnson442 it would probably twist the chassis again unless they reinforced the frame a lot, would be a good contender tho
Dan: "I think this will work."
It works.
Also Dan: " I never thought this would work."
Dan is a man of contradictions
Lmfao 🤣
This is by far my favorite of y’all’s projects
Great build guys... A Cleetus fella has a track, sir
Definitely take it to The Freedom Factory. There's tons of space there, and Jeremy is a go kart guy too, so maybe you could get a 3 way collab going with Cleetus and Faster Proms. 🤷♂️
@@Snugglez187 Oh dude Jeremy would nerd the hell out over this thing, I'd love to see that!!!
Get in touch with the freedom factory. I'm sure they would love to see it too.
Bring extra tires. Massive burnouts required.

?what's free play.... lol. Definitely get worn in fast on the tight side.
@@justinsolomon4427 if your cable is tight it will cook that bearing. Just like on a car the throw bearing has air gap to the clutch pressure plate when not depressed.
Correct, which will also possibly lead to failure of the clutch or friction plates

wouldn't flames out of the exhaust mean it's running rich? there's excess fuel that's not been burnt in the exhaust.

Its fun building stuff, the bad part is finding a place to let our projects run freely. East Texas here and no where to ride either.
By far my favorite kart you guys have built, keep up the great work and keep building this kart better and better

30HP never looked or SOUNDED so awesome.

Yep, working on picking one up and learning! thanks for watching
Keep it, can't wait to see it on an air strip or big parking lot.
Y'all can get wayyyy higher in the rpms with that rotary
I was just thinking that it sounded like it wasn't getting to stretch it's legs
older rotaries are not that high revving than the newer ones
@@PHUSII that motor should hit peak power around 6000 rpm from factory they definitely aren't revving it hard enough
It hasnt been run in a while so just cleaning it out next vid we will see higher revs
@@shaynegadsden yup, it definitely has more in it, just waiting until they press that has pedal
if they are welding together you do not have enough play in the clutch lever they should only touch when the clutch peddle is pressed to disengage power the rest of the time they should not be touching the bearing
It would be good to take it to a go-kart circuit to see what it can really do. I love 787b's and go-karts so this is really cool.
I remember when you guys had fun doing these projects. Feels more robotic these days.
Yeah, I was wondering what was off, this was it!
The new lavalier mics we've been using make it hard to talk excited without being too loud, still working on getting used to it. It'll probably get better with time

The Vargas brothers over at Angel Motorsports need to tap and bridge port this thing
No
it sounds so happy with the regear
There is plenty of carting tracks you can take it to here in texas, the one in Winnsboro would definitely let you come out
It was really fun watching this project come together. The asymmetrical design makes me think of the STP turbine car driven by Parnelli Jones at the 1967 Indy 500. I hope you find somewhere this cart can stretch its legs.

Ive been following since the beginning and love the rotary cart i think the most
Have to Look die an needle bearing Clutch Plate stuff...Happy searching 🙈
It sounds like the gatling gun of the A10 thunderbolt. EPIC.
The best rotary kart I ever seen, love the refresh !
Never saw a go kart spit fire before
If I see that Can-Am advertisement one more time im going to the nearest dealership and clogging their toilet
Do it
Do it
Outstanding, I can't tell you how much I enjoyed that, especially the Allen Millyard-type fabrication stuff. No doubt I goes, I'd love to see it opened up on a track. Well done, boys!
finally i'm seeing some proper intro for the video, i straight up hated the previous one, just was wasting my time, thank you for changing that
Wow that low raspy sound 💜
I remember commenting on every rotary vid for yall to do the 787b livery lol
Gotta love the authentic paint job!
I think turboing the rotary shifter cart would be amazing.
13:04 Holy crap, this scene with the exaust flames in the end! And the noiseeee!!!

We are all here just to see it shoot flames
That' crazy! Hope to see you on track!
Heck ya this is so awesome I have got to get one of my hands on those little engines to cool
We gotta see this beast go flat out. Soooo good!
It spitting purple flames is sick.

Loving the "Renown" livery. Make it more true to the og for serious style points
Love wat you guys do, would love to see a turbo on there
That is a sick ride! Well done!
You need to try it on a road course somewhere.
I can't imagine where you would get parts for a motor like that. Maybe from Europe?
It sounds so much better then before
That 787 paint job looks tufff👌
Some drag strips have autocross courses, and a lot of road race tracks have kart tracks as well.
It is awesome to see that thing running again. Rob Dahm would be proud.
Hear a rotor that sounds tough as then a little go kart rolls around corner 🤣
You guys should take this to a proper long karting track, where you can give it all the beans!
Take it to the Freedom factory
This is the best cart I've ever seen(so far)...
You NEED to send this to the track!
Wow it’s sounds amazing
My favorite build from you guys!!!!!!
That's the hands down the best kart motor l have ever seen
Okay... I used to play around on a custom built 250cc two stroke shifter kart and it was pretty insane. Can imagine this thing is off the hook fun.
That thing sounds gnarly!
I had the same problem I found the highway was the perfect solution for my shifter kart, just couldn't help myself, lol
this by far my favorite video from you guys , the thing spits flames and sounds so good , you could definitely rev it higher tho get that rotory sequel out of her
Such a sick, one of a kind kart toy build there boys 🙌
Oh yes, i love this thing, nice job of you guys, i love rotary engines, this is something different for a gocart
That go cart looks fun as hell 👍
Now its seriously ready for boost!
Very Very cool guys.
I wanna see this on a real track.
Great work.
That thing just sounds so knarly!!
That motor can rev up way more than that. You should give it some more beans. You are shifting at around 5000 to 6000 rpm but it can do more than that without breaking a sweat. Try going till about 8000 or 9000 before you shift.

Wow that exhaust note sounds good!😎
Alot faster than expected brosky's

One of the apex seals may be going bad. It shouldn't spark like that. Only flame.
it's probably the packing in the exhaust.

Did they ever rebuild the engine with new apex seals? Looks and sounds good to me as he is accelerating

Really glad to see you guys getting the rotary kart back out of mothballs! The hydraulic clutch was a much needed upgrade.. nice work you guys!😁👍
