Now this is a true mini buggy, you can't call this a gokart, very nicely done
Stunning workmanship , be proud very proud of it
By far the best Barracuda buggy build I've ever seen! Great work man!
thanks mate, i think doing it from the word go saved a lot of time and money but i would still recommend it to anyone else thinking of doing it.
Nice work mate. Love the custom work you've done with it.
Awesome build man, love it!
Damn nice build! Top notch from front to back!
The best barracuda which I have ever seen :D
This video is amazing and very helpful, i'm a first year fitter and turner and i thinking about making one of these just not as insane. I'm sure though that i will make mods to the original plan. Awesome video and the buggy looks insane, brilliant job:D
Badass rig man
Awesome barracuda gotta be the best I've seen ;-) Just bought an unfinished project off Ebay if it ends up half as good as this I'll be a happy man If had £25k burning a hole in my pocket I'd try give you a run for your money ;-) ;-)
Thanks mate. Appreciate it!!!
Wow I have no words but WOW
No, I'm really committed. It is my 2nd one and I would like to do it right. I've done a piranha II. I would like to build a barracuda now. And I'm in Argentina where any used part is more expensive than a used part to you. It is really hard for me to build one. so I'm looking at many plans and using a peace of each one. the one that suits best and less expensive. I would appreciate if you could send me the plans. When I build it, I will send you pics.
Wow! Nice!
Yep purchased them off edge, pritty much everything is modified or custom made to suit my needs and race specs!!
really nice build, but why is the video not available anymore?
at 4:28 in the clip you will see a grey motor above the orange it is a starter that he has drive his brake disc.The brake disc has teeth cut in it so they both fit together when the motor is ingaged.yYou can see the gear on the motor when it is turnt on the gear pushes out and mets the brake disk.Hope I could help
Hi i´m from Germany. I have a little question. Do you have the buildplans?
WOW! this is simply awesome! i think this is one of the best work on KZhead! Great job! I'm trying to build a buggy and I was thinking to buy 16" King Shocks suspension (maybe the coilover version) , are these good suspension? Could you tell me which inclination do you used between the perpendicular of the front A-arm and the suspension? Sorry for my bad English! Greetings from Italy :)
You all can buuld this same way BUT more towards San Rail but w Truimph motor? Also like 2 ft longer? Also how much this 1 cost w out motor or as a Roller?
Hey mate we’re you able to race this in Australia?
Great buggy :) really really neat, with the geometry of the a arms is it true that the top a arm has to be slightly shorter then the bottom? i know you probs used the edge plans and modified them... how much difference do you need, or does it depend on the hub your using ? thanks
My budget just about stretched to an unfinished project piranha ;-) She's rough and needs quite a lot to finish but there's a zx6r ninja engine and a few useable good bits I'll fire a few vids up should give you a laugh ;-)
Super!
did you buy the plans from edge? It looks pretty sweet looking good job on it!!!
does the barracuda kit come with all of the parts or do you have to sorce them
Сплошные цепи однако!
do you need to detach any limbs to climb in?
if you aren't willing to purchase the plans, i really doubt you would commit to the build..
good day I'm trying to get plans for a similar piranha who did but something more economical because did you use good and expensive parts. You could send me please blueprint.
Do you have a part number for the quaiffe diff, and if so what mods did you have to do to make it all work?
Frk'n Awesome!!!
Hello friend. I need a project barracuda. another that measures contece pipes, curved pipes and everything else .. you have there? know or inform me?
Where did you get the rear section for the IRS ? Did you build it or did it come with a kit ?
how did you do a reverse gear?
qdf7zr different housing, outboard brakes, starter motor, shorter axles, custom output shafts to suit 930 cv.
Must be great having money and free time. I have neither.
But you do have bitterness, so that's that!
how much did the whole build cost ?
Hi Dylan, your Barracuda looks amazing, bet she runs great too! what type of tube bender did you use? they look professionally done
speedwerx tube bender
