  • We got burned in a trade deal- Ike traded a diesel boat engine for a decent 110cc Honda 3 wheeler and this clapped out yard kart with a Predator 212 that we're calling the Silver Shadow. This cheap yard kart is ROUGH- the rear axle is booger welded on, the brakes don't work, the front end is caved in, the steering is about to fall out, and the Predator 212's carburetor is frozen and full of debris. In today's episode of CarsandCameras, we revamp the Silver Shadow, and take it for a very fast hot lap around the CarsandCameras Grand Prix!

    You should put a 2 stroke Outboard motor on it

    Good video guys, fun is worth the boat motor imo. I think these kind of resurrections are cool to watch. Just remember the gas pedal is an analog device, not an on/off switch, lol!

    Had a tie rod separate on my cart and went over a curb and down a sand hill as a result. I changed over to a rack and pinion when I fixed that problem and it was a VERY good upgrade. Unlike that stupid steering that isn't remotely linear.
    You could also have just used a nut splitter, and re tapped the shaft, maybe to a different diameter thread, but whatever, it's all well that ends well.
    Your vids bring back memories I haven't thought about in 50 years.
    It would be nice to figure out how to get rid of at least some of that under steer. That almost more than bordered on dangerous.

    Boats are boring, carts are not! Nice to see you had some fun even though the paintjob made me think it was all "enhanced carbon fiber" :D

      That's exactly what I was thinking. The red predator motors came on different power equipment cause I've also seen them on some of the older hydraulic wood splitters from harbor freight.
