- Breaking down every corner on how I got the lap record of 21.946 at my local K1 speed track! Please let me know if I missed anything and what you think of the video. What's your fastest time here?

Not anymore, best time was set today at 29.921 by Gobindar i think... BUT your videos have been helping a lot man!
Yes you're correct the lap record was broken by Gobindar today on 11/13/23. Tough luck as I held the record for 4 years lol. Gonna need a lot more seat time if I want to have another shot at beating it. He's the fastest guy at K1 Toronto right now so I'm happy to pass the throne to him.
Also, thanks for the support! Glad to hear my videos have been helping you out!
@@dawsoncampbell i was literally talking about it today with my gf, that u he’d that for 4 years, but itd be awesome if you come back again and set it again. Doing that I’d probably have the chance to meet you and ask for some advices in person 😉😅😂. Are u going back there ?
@@Jhony-gl5sf Yes I plan on doing more races at Toronto soon because I hear they're changing the layout soon. I'll also be racing the King of the Throne race at Mississauga on the 22nd. Feel free to reach out on Instagram, I'm always happy to chat racing!
@@dawsoncampbell wait what ? Bro I’m working there and I didn’t know that they were changing the layout hahahaha
Nice Vid, I was there yesterday. I wish I saw your vid prior!! ;)
Thanks!
im going today tysm for this video really helpful im gonna try to get a new record for the juniors league!
Good luck!!!
For track records at Autobahn Manassas (my home track) its about the braking on the one hairpin and not countersteering.
which karts do you use?
Thanks for the video
thanks for the comment!
@@dawsoncampbell I’m racing this week in the league. So this helps to thanks
Hi. Really appreciate your video! I checked K1 speed official website that they no longer allow gopros or any other videotaping device on-track. Is this true and do you have any suggestions about where to mount the GoPro? Thanks
Thanks! You can wear gopro on your helmet or they have camera rentals too.
What kart numbers did you find best for these time trials?? i swear some of the karts here are slightly slower than others.
You need to be a regular to find which karts are fastest. But off the top of my head, kart 3, kart 7, kart 9, kart 30 are all great karts. Just need to adapt to the strengths and weaknesses of each kart.
Awesome vid. Can you do one for mississauga track too?
I need to bring my GoPro out but I'll see what I can do!
@@dawsoncampbell thanks man, would appreciate that a lot. I managed to hit 21 a couple of times but I've regressed lately. I remember the one thing I did do successfully when I hit 21 is do a late apex/compromise the entry on the second hairpin to build more speed for the longer stretches. I can't seem to do that anymore. Not sure how I did the turn in that time. Also, someone hit a 20.5 there recently which is pretty insane if you ask me.
Hey! Could you do the same video but for the Mississauga location please?🙏
Yes very soon! Keep watching!
@@dawsoncampbell awesome, thanks so much!!
Is there any tips on how to not get traffic on a lap, or is it just based on luck?
great question. Look behind you and if there is space, slow down! Especially if you just want 1 fast lap. no need to go all out for the whole thing.
@@dawsoncampbell Thank you, thats the one thing I always struggle with especially in the bigger groups
Would you say this line is still the fastest way around the track? I heard some guys getting 22.0 recently without braking. And when I talked to them they were saying to not brake and also go fully wide next to the barrier before turn 6?
Still the fastest way around the track. You can go all the way to the outside before turn 6 but I find the kart unsettled and hops in the middle of the corner. Definitely using my brakes to avoid hopping. It would be different if the karts actually slid sideways but they don't slide, they just go over the limit and hop, killing your momentum. I did a 22.2 on my last visit a few weeks ago.
@dawsoncampbell between turn 2,3 and 4, you let off twice or once?
@@hellakray8514 twice. 1st time to get it turned in for 2. And 2nd time to get it turned in to 3, although I've heard lots of people are flat out through 3.
@dawsoncampbell at what point do you let off and brake for turn 6? From what I saw in the vid, you let off adjacent to the apex of turn 5 but not sure when you brake for turn 6? Is it during the turn in and how strong do you brake?
@@hellakray8514 as soon as I let off, I'm on the brakes. Usually very gently for that corner cause I don't want to slide and end up hopping.
Out of curiosity, how much do you weigh?
153 pounds soaking wet lol. Roughly the same when I set the record.
