      @@ChapmansCorner thanks 😊 Hopefully will be back on the videos soon, been very quiet this year on making them, hopefully will be back on them soon with the strip down and rebuild videos of the 3 cars. Will see about next year and what happens with budget 2023 was quite expensive with 2 big shunts and engine issues. I’d like to get out on a test day but will see what budgets left over after Christmas got 2 engine rebuilds to do with possible new supercharged 1000 engine. Fingers crossed I can come out and play even just for a test day.

    Great video! Next time can you please explain a step by step method to having a spare £20k?

    • @ChapmansCorner
      @ChapmansCorner  Год назад +2

      Step 1, get into software sector not construction.
      Step 2, but a race car not a few kg of dirt for the garden

    Being in America, it seems to be a lot harder to find available cars.

    I enjoyed racing Elliot, I just hope your not as quick as him! FYI minimum car and driver weight are 410kg, some of the young guys (and Adam) have ballast, I weigh 424kg with the car so the car itself without driver weighs about 345kg. (Rob in the yellow car)
    Look forward to seeing you on track at Oulton

      I am definitely not as quick! But plan to be with a little practice.
      Thanks for the info, makes sense the weight is with driver.
      Look forward to chatting and racing At Oulton, Rob!

    I’m in the process of rebuilding a Jedi with a view to racing ( sprints/hill climbs)
    Nearly finished just bodywork to sort out.

    How do these compare in speed/lap times to a division 1 super kart (250 formula e)? Back when superkarts we're making around 70 bhp they were running lap times comparable to F3 - latest superkart engines are pumping out something like 100bhp in race trim.

    • @ChapmansCorner
      @ChapmansCorner  5 месяцев назад +1

      Love it Jeff! Those things are mad, one of the other F1000 drivers tried a 250 recently and said it was mental. Check out my Cadwell park video, I mention Superkart lap record!
      Brands Div1 45.4 vs F1000 44.6
      Cadwell Div1 1:21.03 vs F1000 1:21.13
      Croft Div1 1:20.94 vs F1000 1:17.34
      Bloody close! Like us vs F3, smaller tighter tracks suit us better, larger more aero tracks with fast corners suit F3

    How much are you paying the team for storing, maintenance and track day support + transporting your car?

    • @ChapmansCorner
      @ChapmansCorner  Год назад +2

      Thanks! Rough numbers are
      £450 a day trackside
      £200 race prep fee
      £1.30 a mile for transport so usually around £200 an event
