Then you go left to the parallel parking spot in the back of the building on Putnam Village Dr. After you park you go back out onto Putnam Village Dr, then turn left onto Liberty Park Dr (the road heading to Home depot) and stay on that road until you reach a curve going left. Then you pull into the left at a small road that lets you turn around to return back to the same road on Liberty Park Dr. (Heading away from home depot) Then drive back to the parking lot and park anywhere. Thats it! Took about 8 mins maybe? The instructor gave me multiple chances at the parallel part aswell! Super nice!

Honestly just practice the parallel parking at the actual spot behind the building (since its on a slope) and thats all you need to prepare for.

    Awesome video, my shifter seized up right after I got it on my second track day. I think it was jetted too lean to get the most performance out of it. It’s getting rebuilt right now and I want to get time and reliability out of it. It looks like going with a rich safe tune in the carb won’t cost me a ton of time. Seat time is what will benefit me more than a marginal HP gain from ragged edge jetting. Thanks for the vid. Also if you don’t mind me asking what oil ratio do you run in the shifter? I ran 32:1 in all my dirt bikes and never had any issue but someone recommended me running 20:1 on the kart since it’s under so much load from the added grip of pavement and always revving high. I thought that seemed like a lot of oil but I’m probably going to give it a go.

      Unfortunately the Speedo doesn’t work on the boat. We go by RPM. We have been using 3400 RPM lately. I’ll try to check the speed via GPS the next time we’re out. Finding the right speed is critical though.

    • @TheRacingNelsons
      @TheRacingNelsons 3 года назад

      To add a bit more: You want to go just fast enough that you can clear from wake-to-wake nearly every time. The faster you go, the shorter the wake-to-wake distance becomes. But going faster makes falls hurt more. You also need to play with different rope lengths.

    • @TheRacingNelsons

    Hi , its piston slap I'm sure , it happens on forged pistons and you will find that the noise gets less as you ride the bike and get it hot. I had the exact same problem after my was jug re -lined, I now only run cast piston as I hate the sound. Double check your piston to cylinder clearance if you have the tools. it should be 0.05mm between the two for a cast piston and slightly larger for forged about 0.06mm to 0.07mm for room to expand. Correct me if I'm wrong and you've sorted your problem. hope that helps

      @@TheRacingNelsons Ah right , yeah let me know how it goes! , once its got heat in it you should find the noise fades. That piston slap isn't a very pleasant sound I know. If it doesn't fade when hot then its time to check piston to wall clearance. The ring having to much gap at the start might be an indication the cylinder hasn't been re-plated correctly and the jug is out of spec. This exact thing happened to me and they re -lined it for free. Hope this helps a little !
