Where do you buy this world formula engine and parts in Europe?
Hi Hugo, I use a company in the UK called Uni-power sir.
Great video, hoping to take our team over for next years event, currently at Le Mans doing a recce of the site this Thursday
we used to run the air cooled 100cc reed valve motors in the early 2000s then we got older and over push starting and just bought rotax 125s
I raced TKM back in 99/00, the 115s sound like fun, I wonder how much extra power they have.
I love this Alan, nice job mate. Stark difference to the one Paige filmed at for you but still a blooming good video!
I love Vintage kart races ! I have a Vortex 100cc which I race eventually. Thanks for sharing
Good video mate, was a good weekend!
This looked really fast, nice job Alan.
Awesome video 😊
Another cracking video, Al. It's a shame about the GoPro footage as it really puts us in the race with you, but we've all mismanaged video files before. You won't do it again 😊 Having Paige in it and rolling the camera really helped the video (extra footage, more dynamic shots, etc) Hopefully, she'll want to do this more in the future. You make a good team, Paige is obviously sensible one 😅 Hope they didn't hit you for the excess over the mirror?
@The_RC_Family Thanks mate, Paige is not so keen I'm afraid 🤣. I got all the parts ordered next day and replaced them Sunday night :)
Great video!
@robertborowikmedia Thanks Robert
I would not be able to do this mate. The footage you have of this is really good.
French Mackies LMAO what a let down! Great video mate, really enjoyed that
These karts have 2 GX390 ?
@kartaroundtheworld No, they use twin GX200's.
@@alanjkarting thanks mate ! Looks interesting, but looks like twice chances of mech failures ..
Let's goooooooo
Go Team Fp4k 💪
What helmet cam are you running?
Hi Rob, that was a GoPro 8 on a helmet chin strap.
nice video mate. Maxxis is the right choice imo. plenty of used sets avaliable for practice days and potentially only 2 sets needed for the championship given you run wets too so not particularly expensive 👍
Thanks Andy, that's my view also. While there may be a better tyre for our class, you can't ignore nearly free practice tyres! In the end, I was exactly 2 seconds a lap faster at Clay on them.
The mic is definitely a good shout 👌🏻 keep up the great videos Alan 👍🏻
Thanks Scott, would be great to see you at a round or two, even if it's just to come and say hi.
@@alanjkarting I’m planning to come to rissington to say hi but your not there 🤦🏻♂️ I’m planing on doing Ella park so I will see you then, if not before 👍🏻
Brilliant video Al, good flow, good mixture of content and some good info. Would love to see a little more of the on track stuff but you can't do it all as you said. Looking forward to the next one!
Me too, bloody regulations! Thanks mate :)
Good video mate!
Thanks mate 👍🏻
Alan Jacques Karting, awesome video keep it up
Thank you, I'll be doing a video of eight of our rounds, so stay tuned.
what engine are you using? i thought everyone was using Rotax at forest edge?
No, there are lots of classes that run a number of two and four stroke engines. We run the Briggs & Stratton World Formula engine.
Brilliant video Donna said you would make a good commentatorx
awesome video
Great video mate
Thanks Tom, good luck at Lydd next weekend, I'll be watching Alfa to see what times you guys do and how you and Andy get on.
Thank you very much for your video. I have another question for you. The engine has three oil reservoirs. Are they all connected to each other? Do they each need to be filled with oil separately? It may be a silly question, but I prefer to ask. Many greetings in advance.
Hi Kim, Yes, they all lead into the main crank case. When the engine is fitted the two at the front are mainly used, the top one to fill, and the bottom one to check the oli level. I never use the rear one. Are you in the UK?
@@alanjkarting Dear Alan, first of all thank you very much for the quick response. I am from Belgium and have started looking for information to properly restore my Briggs & Stratton Formula engine. Step by step I am looking for advice on how to best start this project. Your video has already taught me a lot. Kind regards. And if it's possible I would like to send you for my further questions? 🙂
@KimBruneel-jh5kp please, do. I'll help if I can. I've not stripped one down and rebuilt one but can always find out for you.
Great!
I heard the recommended oil amount was 600 ml. in your video you said 450. Which is the amount that you would recommend?
Hi Kevin, most of us run the minimum amount of oil, 400ml. But that's up to you, the more oil you run the slower the engine will go, run to little and she will run really well then disassemble itself. I've personally run 400-450 on new engines for the past five years with no issues.
well done lad
This is really good Al, I think anyone who is new to these engines will learn something from this video. Good job mate!
Brillaint video Al, despite the engine troubles this was a cracking vlog to watch.
Great video! I have the same bumper as you but the adjustable ends made it catch on the rear tyres, so seeing how you've done yours has helped me massively!
Quality Video love how the hair changed the more things went wrong 🤣
Apart from looking at yourself in the screen instead of the lens (you tart) I think this has legs! I'm not even into carting and enjoyed it 😂❤
I can't help it, he's so generous 🤣
I love the ornaments. I’m sure Dani loves them up there 😂
Hi mate, she normally has the kart on the dinning room table this time of year, so that's nothing 🤣
@@alanjkarting I remember you showing me the Kart on the table. 🤣 looking good tho keep it up. Will keep up to with your Karting stories
