😂

Teamsport were good enough to lend me one. 😂

Right back at you dude!

😂 never mind the kart, I need bathing in wd40 after that 😂

Yeah that bridge is rough 😂

Yeah... 😂

Social media site I started building (I'm a software engineer). Didn't get round to finishing it. Might do at some point.

Practice, practice, practice. And follow experienced drivers.

Yeah you're quick. Remember getting a few nudges through the corners from you

Yeah I think so, but to be fair I'm not a regular at Bradford, only been a couple of times. I've probably got a second to find if I frequented there.

yeah new karts are a lot slower for now

​@@MMRacing20 ah good, so I'm not just slow asf then 😂

@@tomfox747 a 45.9 is a respectable time tbf, the lines and techniques look very on point for all corners except teardrop, which is stupid hard tbf

@@MMRacing20 only way I could get through consistently was with a light flick left then right. Everything else I tried resulted in bouncing and understeer.

Teardrop?

@@tomfox747 yh it's so bumpy to do anything consistent on it

😂😂

I should've let you past and tried to follow you through if you had any more luck with it

It's a DJI action, only running 60fps. Good camera for the money.

You might be able to do that, not convinced it'd be the quickest way round though. They still run endurance events occasionally!

Appreciated, all I do is strap a camera to my head and try not to make fool of myself 😂

​​@@tomfox747 well you do a good job 👍

There's always a little bit of contact in rental karting. Part of the fun 😂

Never been to notts. One of the many I still have to visit! Yeah Sheffield is a great track to drive, super difficult to overtake though.

Earlier this week as far as I was told! From what I've heard the old ones were pretty worn out.

Yesterday! (thursday). Dunstable got them too.

They arrived last Tuesday (21st) 👍

@@RobGoesRacing Cheers

Thanks for the clarification. I'll update the desc. I've heard mechanics talking about karts being "turned up or down" so I assumed they were running on the safer side from factory.

No they were fine with it, I asked before hand and they said no problem!

@@tomfox747 Might go again at some point and try again, I did like the track.

@@TeamTopGun Your Not the only one told u weren't allowed to film I got told same thing and I live local so they might have updated the insurance.

@@ThekartingPanda Hopefully they did, always seemed a bit odd that they would not allow action cameras.

@@TeamTopGun I know but like you say hopefully they have updated there stuff.

Best thing you can do is practice!

ok i will do thanks

Made for a bit of a challenge 😂 Yeah track was decent enough. The bridge was basically a full blown jump, I was about 6 inches in the air coming over it 😂 Hah yeah it's starting to look that way...

Awesome! 1. Get down to a members session and try to learn from the fast guys 2. Oversteer ruins lap time in these karts. 3. Always be looking exactly where you want the kart to go. 4. Hit your apexes.

Hah nice one. Surprisingly fun little track.

@tomfox747 ik hardly anyone lose there

Nothing crazy in this session. 40.3

@@tomfox747that’s crazy fast, i can’t get under 40.9 for the life of me. any tips?

​@@maxbroadley629740.9 is decent. Best thing you can do if you haven't already, is get to some members sessions and follow the quick guys!

@@tomfox747 yeah would be good idea, i’ve only been 4 times, only just started karting and got membership last week so i’ll try do that

Went once or twice this time last year before the karts were changed. Yeah I've still got a solid half a second or so to find if I was going to visit regularly! You a local there?

@@tomfox747 i am indeed a local there, my best being a 44.6. i haven't done a pub session for a while in the new karts and when i last did one it was back in november time i think. only managed a 45.9 aswell lol

@@tomfox747 just coming back to this, i checked my activity history and realised i did a members race with you at Bradford back in August last year 😂

@@LCKarting hah nice, you must've scrolled back a bit to find that 😂

Down ramp

@@tomfox747 makes the most sense

They're easier to spin than the petrols. The breaks take a bit of adjusting.

Classic example of a public session 😂

Difficult without any reference. Best thing you can do is follow some of the quick guys on a members night! And remember that you're not driving a petrol kart, use the torque.

@@tomfox747 ye I was trying that I went last Monday but I think I was using my brakes to much but I'm not sure if I'm right. Do use them often because I noticed that's when people where pulling away from me

Light dab of brakes into T1. And a harder brake into the tight hairpin after the mini down ramp on the top section. Everywhere else is either flat or a quick lift. Because of the torque on the electrics you can really chuck them about without losing momentum, they respond well to a slightly more aggressive driving style as far as I can tell.

@@tomfox747 ye thanks for the help I'll definitely try this out next time I go

No they aren't doing 70, the indoor petrol karts I think do about 40, these biz electrics at warrington probably top out in the mid 40s. Tights tracks make them look quicker than they're actually going. But the torque on the electrics feels mega, they are certainly quick enough.

Keep going, you'll find a couple of seconds with a bit of practice.

@tomfox747 I'm going tommorow and I'm gonna try hit 42

This was quite a while back. It's not likely to be you haha.

Yeah, it got a bit dicey 😂

@@tomfox747saw your time as well, impressive for a morning session. You doing any members events soon?

​@@S55AUL yeah cheers, kart 37 felt tight to be fair. I struggle to get down to the members events, I'm a solid 1h 45m away 😂

@@tomfox747 yeah 37 is one of the decent karts, 33 isn’t too bad either. And fair enough, didn’t realise it took you so long get to Warrington 🤣

He realllly wasn’t too happy at the end of the race, he mentioned contact was too bad but proceeded to pit manoeuvre the race leader who was lapping him. Had my experiences with him too that race 😭😂

Kart couldn't handle me 😂
