- 2021 Quincy GP 125 Shifter Final. Devon Smith-Harden takes win #2 of the weekend...even after biffing the start and touching the curb after the jump.
He set the track record on lap #7. Unfortunately, Race Liberante had even more trouble after a great start.
Part 2 of 2 • Quincy GP 2021 125 Shi...
I owned my 125 shifter precisely long enough to realize I would never be able to keep a driver like this in sight. If you've never driven one, find a place to rent one with instruction for a couple of days. Then come back and watch this video again. Fantastic drive!
What the top speed of a 125 shifter? Seems at least 70 mph is my guess
@@leonardread13 The lowest final gear I had in my kit topped out at about 85mph. It got there in the time it took me to move the shift lever 5 times and slowed down even faster.
We ran a 6/10 mile sprint track mostly and saw 80-81 on our fast straight with way more left to go if you geared it taller.
@@leonardread13 We were doing around 100mph here
i qualified 4 th at quincy in 94 but blew the engine in the race Alex Barron won and went to indy car for dan gurney
The amount of traction those karts produce at speed is amazing
Have to wear a kidney brace, or you just crack ribs going around corners. So ya, they grip.
Was wondering if they have aero on them?
@@buggerlugz6753 The 250 Superkarts do but not these.
@@fredpinczuk7352 I used to race with an IAME Praga 125cc, i almost never wore a brace but i paid for it the rest of the week, i couldn't sleep on my side for 3-4 days :(
@@ikonds6826 direct drive? I would say those would hurt more your ribs than the shifter, because you have to slide it to keep up the speed. My dad built IAME Sudam 125 and Parilla 125cc and 125cc shifter for Argentina Karting championships
I've been rallying for years with some close calls.This is on another level, kudos to you and anyone who races one of these widow makers👏
@@mikea.3686 you make windows by crashing a shifter kart? Clearly meant widow as crashing in this looks like absolute death.
You should see superkarting.
@@fede02abc32 Aren’t superkarts using actual car tracks tho? Nothing as linear as this

Beautiful track. I have been dreaming about a track like this all my life.
in 2016 in brazil a guy in Rotax senior crashed into a tree and died....
@@R3RS2024 Never said it was safe. Just beautiful. In the 90 street kart racing in the middle of a small town was the only racing whe did in Quebec. I remember one race that got canceled because no racer wanted to race.

Needs more straight away
The rhythm they set was brutal and precise. Magnificent!
Those were some epic banzai quali laps once you got past the slower guy after the mediocre start. Really impressive. I used to proper race 125 shifters but none of our tracks had trees or walls like that to contend with. I’m 58 now, nowhere near that level of commitment anymore…but boy I wish I’d been able to race a course like that 20 years ago. Just brilliant. Thanks for posting.
Man looks so fun, I get a crazy adrenaline rush watching this lol, looks like so much fun.
I grew up going to this race. Was surprised to see the walls built and the fence. We used to watch rookies loose it on the horse shoe turn and driver’s pulling there carts up out of the creek. Things look much safer now. Still a great track. Thanks
Where is this race held at? Beautiful course!
@@jimmymac63 this year June 11th and twelfth in Quincy Illinois. The park is called South Park.
This is safer? Wow.
Damn
raced dirt track stock cars , trucks at 25 years of age , this video popped up , now at 55 years you gave me leg cramps and white knuckles lol, VERY NICE JOB !!!!
Thanks so much for posting this!! I raced at Quincy in 79 and 80. Such a great track and quite the event.
That track is nuts with all them trees, curbs and stone walls, but I would have loved it in my 20’s.
nah. it's soooo narrow it's a joke imo
The organizers got it all! Trees, curbs, people, everything! Congrats! (for a while, I missed the 90’s…).
@@raymondo162 Maybe because you would be afraid... Instead of being mad at the design of the Circuit, or really (yourself) why don't you just admit that it scares you. 🤷♂️🤦♂️
Age now: 30
Well, they wear helmets so……
Props to whatever method of stabilization you are using for your footage. Unbelievably smooth. Go compare this to an F1 onboard camera shot if you don't think so.
GoPro Hero 7 Black...stock stabilization
OMG, seriously fast, and some serious bumps... Section just before start/finish, and just after is nutz.... Great view, appreciate the post.
This has to be one of the most beautiful and technically challenging kart track I have ever seen! Wish I could have driven it with my old shifter and skills! Thanks for sharing this
Damn! I fell out of my recliner twice watching this! Thanks for sharing.
Still love the carts. Raced in Calif. in the early 70's, Margay chassis w/McCullough 101B engine (123 cc, 12.5 hp at 9000 rpm). In 1981 I began road racing superbikes in the AFM and AMA. Karts are a great place to start..
What speed are these things going at?
@@DonKopArkadio I'd guess around 60 -70 mph
He hit 92mph on the back straight.
@@OrigZ585756 I went back and looked, they are indeed carrying a lot of speed thru there.. love it. Thanks
Damn, nice drive. I always wanted to try a shifter. The feeling of competing in regular rental go-karts was already amazing, this must be pure adrenaline.
What a track. I definitely wouldn't want to make a big mistake. Wish I was still young enough to run on something like it. I miss my karting days,it was a great way to start racing. I'm fifty now and thinking about getting into an oldies league.
Hey Terry! I just turned 59 and have always loved karts- ever since my pops bought me a garage sale special when I was a kid. Didn’t have it long, as we didn’t have much mechanical skills. Then about 3 years ago I got to race a few rounds with some buddies in Singapore (not shifters). Thinking I’d like to join you in an oldies league! 😄
@@lonesquid mate, if you ever get to Australia, I'd be happy to race against you.
dude this is insaneeeee makes me want to race karts so bad, they are friggin flying!
Impressive how he kept pushing it right to the edge, long after passing all his competition. I couldn’t. Some people are just wired differently !
That's for sure the demeanor of a real driver. They don't go out and do it for the kudos or pats on the back. They live for that feeling. And the best racers out there will agree your not racing the other cars your racing the track.
This was magnificent to watch. Thank you.
when you were behind the 2nd placed guy, he was holding you up, once you passed him, man been a while since I saw someone pushing limits. Good stuff!
I just stumbled across this video and wondered if this was at Quincy Il. I was born, 1948, and raised in Quincy. The track immediately reminded me of South Park where we always had the Easter egg hunt. It looks the same and is the most beautiful park I ever visited. Great memory. Jim Newberry.
Yes it's Quincy Illinois..they just had the 22 race last weekend
Really shows the speed.
what a beautiful track. love all the fans watching
Well that was an unexpected ending
Part 1 of 2
Is part 2 the trip to hospital?
@@Tailspin80 that's what I thought too. He just died.
🗿
Where is this?? Looks frikin rad. Nice steering dude!
South Park in Quincy, ILL. Google Quincy Grand Prix.
Love that track. Reminds me of the gymkhana videos of cars blasting thru the mountains and forests. What a ride.
Insane. Trees and stone Walls left and right. Skidding off is the death
Damn this track looks both very dangerous and fun lol
Truly amazing racing here ! The track is sick, the angle is great and the driving is right in the edge. The very end had me worried though. Looks like it cuts just as the Kart was losing it. Anyway , great video for sure!
Watch Part 2 to see him recover from grazing the curb and going on to win. The GoPro split the video at the exact moment of impact....and I didn't want to edit it in any way.
My obliques hurt after leaning into the turns while watching the POV vid. Exciting as hell!
You guys are absolutely crazy to race there….. geez!!
That was totally awesome. This kid can drive and I mean drive!
I have this feeling that I could bump the kart anytime and feel sleepy at the same time. I'm no driver but I really felt the ride watching this video. 😁
Insane
Fucking hell that was intense just watching that, awesome corner speed and cool track layout too!
MUCH more entertaining than F1. But then again what isn't?
Way more engaging and entertaining than the shifter cart races in GT6. But of course, right?
Nice driving!👍👍👍
Initially i was a bit worried😢 but then i saw the jumping.
Best in car footage ever, balls to the walls!!!
Гонка это все круги, друг! И если ты ехал первым все круги, а на последнем улетел с трассы, то это тоже нужно показать! Не важно каким ты ехал всю трассу, важно каким ты пересек финиш!
Watch part 2...he didn't wreck, just grazed the curb.
👍🏽😃 хорошо гоняешь.. . Вот бы Так все ездили 🤠 надоело в пробках стоять. Устал от заторов ! Тоже люблю гонять )
Seriously! The accelerator pedal is the one on the right peeps!
если бы все так гоняли то на кладбище хоронить не где было бы!
I love how you carry speed into the corner and then hold the throttle instead of coast. You were like mario star power fast once you got around that dude.
La parte del cittadino Partenza/Arrivo è impressionante!!!gran bella pista!!! peccato solo il piccolo stallo in partenza,x il resto gara intensa e spettacolare!!!😮👍👏👏
Very cool video!
Would love to see a wide angle center view!
ive now found my new favorite sport to spectate !
Very dangerous track!
To me it sounded like the carburetor had a bit too large jet on the beginning, but it must have been just too cold engine. Maybe he did not close the cooler curtain in warm up laps. In the end the engine was running very well.
Having deep pockets and a good engine builder is key ! Being able to drive helps a bit too 🤣
Pure genius, I defy anyone to drive a cart around that track any closer to the raggedy edge than this absolute ballet on wheels MAGIC!
That start gave you some work to do but full send at 4:55!
Yah. It’s like he chose his braking zone based on what would be required to complete the pass and everything after that was a question of managing the situation
wow wow Caught myself holding my breath just from watching. That's some intense stuff right there. the track edge is wow hit that and see you later. awesome job
Woah, that looks amazing! This race is held at some park zone, I presume? Because I can't imagine how many instances the organisers must've come through to make a race on a track like this. (evil CIK-FIA noises)
And also, nice driving! I wish you luck at your future races!
South Park, Quincy, Illinois
Трасса классная) со стенами каменными ваще кайф) провезти туда кого-то бесценно
This video needed a 360 camera! Awesome race!
Bro! 4:58 epic first overtake!! 🤙🏻
You were giving that thing the beans man, I could tell through the video almost like a POV you were really pushing it!
* WHAT HAPPENED AT THE END!? Someone hit you or you crashed
Watch Part 2 for the rest of the race....the GoPro split the videos at the exact moment he grazed the curb...went on to win.
What is the life expectancy of the gear box ? Like 3-5 races max?
Gearbox, probably twice that. Piston / rings need much more attention.
how does a kart get round corners with a solid rear axle?
does the inside wheel spin the tyre in place of a diff or what?
it baffles me.
On bigger sweeping corners a kart slips the inside wheel. On tight corners a good handling kart lifts the inside wheel.
@@OrigZ585756 Hi thanks for that. I've never driven one so I couldn't figure it out.
Ohh gosh.. that last few seconds f the video 😬😬. Did you save it?
Unfortunately the GoPro split the video at the exact moment he grazed the curb. Watch Part 2, he corrected and went on to win.
That looks soooo fun! Would it be against the rules to put electronic paddle shifters on that thing so you can keep both hands on the wheel and shift faster? Technically I think it would be very easy, but I haven't seen a cart with it yet so I'm guessing it's against the rules?
There's a system out there...but testing showed it to not be any faster....and it's not 'legal' in any series we run plus it's crazy expensive.
When I see this, I know why I bought a racing chair for my desk.
The centrifugal forces can almost be felt 😀
Hi, what camera and mount do you use? Love this video
GoPro Hero 7 Black on a fixed mount, bolted to the chassis.
@@OrigZ585756 great thanks man
super tocadas de marchas ecelente pilotagem piloto proficional de alto nivel a dorei
Absolutely insane. How fast? 70-80? I’m assuming with no roll cage or protection other than seatbelt or helmet, if you crash it’s lights out. Huge balls
He saw 96mph on the back straight....
OMFG
This is Devil, coming on a Racing Kart...! More scaring than a Japanese Horror Movie...
That makes my round track days look easy
How’d they allow racing with a stone wall beside the track? Crazy
They're only exposed on the inside of turns, where momentum would push you away from them. The hardest thing about this course is the crown in hte center of the road. It's more than normal.
@@OrigZ585756 it looks really cool have to say
@@ThomasFleming1 yeah it does
allow me to suggest that you watch some isle of man tt motorcycle races. or some of the irish road races. yeh
色々変わってる所があるのかもしれませんが、骨組みだけのカートの跳ねる感じ、そして音たまりません。
あと20年30年先には完全になくなるのかと思うと勿体ない。
Wow... What a ride. ....totally wicked awesome. ...looks liked the best fun
That's terrifying. Need ninja reaction. Respect!
What happened at the end. Did he eat it? I think he did when he crossed the road.
Unfortunately, the GoPro split the video at the exact moment he grazed the curb. In Part 2, he corrects and goes on to an easy win.
Great driver, amazing track!!
Beautiful flowing track
It's actually a city park. South Park in Quincy, Ill.
This is the first time I've seen shifter karts with the engine on the left side - is there some reason for that?
?? Just the radiator on the left.
@@OrigZ585756 Sorry about that, operator error. The engines are so low I can barely see them. BTW, nice track, and nice racing. I had a shifter years ago, but I wasn't in good enough shape to withstand the forces.
That was a great run of the track
Amen.!! por el control de volante que tiene este hombre excelente performane

Very cool 😎
Track looks so dangerous. But also so fun.
That’s Bonkers ! ! Amazing driving ! 👏👏
No, it's bananas!
That is one beautiful sounding kart man
Are you running magura brakes
No, I'll have to check to see what's on that kart.
I sure miss my cart racing days!
Was that a horse and cart or a Petrol kart ?
Shifter carts are awesome
Thanks for the ride.very enjoyable.
Pamięć jak komputer :)
Bravo
It seems to me the video is little bit speed up. Look at the green flag on start and then on suspension during race. Even sound of engine has little higher frequency
Nope....straight from the GoPro.
Some of the best driving I've seen. Full stop. 👏
Looked like he wrecked when the camera went off though 🤔🧐
@@karlrouse8479 he didn’t. It was an excellent save!
I remember those days sore ribs and all. I can't imagine driving one now even though I still have the kart.
Driver got skiiiills man !! So cool to watch
What speed did you get?
96 mph on the back stretch and over 90 mph in a couple other places.
Why the sudden ending...looks like you clipped the curve and just recovered.
Watch Part 2. The GoPro split the video at the exact moment he grazed the curb....went on to win.
I think the camera switched off after losing control and bumping the curb in the end. That track is crazy dangerous..
No, the GoPro split the video at the exact moment he grazed the curb....Watch Part #2 for the rest. He went on to win.
@@OrigZ585756 Oh wow, i didn't see the title say Pt1. Thanks. Good there is a 2nd part to watch.
Great ride to watch, still bouncing a new machine to come up Spa-Francorchamps.
Just beautiful.
ive always wanted to drive one of these looks like so much fun
Super ça me manque énormément 😢❤
it's a crash on last second right ?
Watch Part 2, the GoPro split the video at the exact moment he grazed the curb...collected and on to the win.
That takes some big stones to go that fast 👍
Is this in fast forward? Seems a bit off for real time.
Nope...all in real time...straight from the GoPro.
@@OrigZ585756 dang! I need to build one!
intense a bit! good racing, nice video
