      Tire set up on the flat cart is for ovals which is why the right sides are so much larger. It's made to turn left. Put em on the same tires and run em like that.

    • @Chuckdiesel86
      @Chuckdiesel86 Год назад +3

      It also needs weight on the right side. The seat is farther to the left on oval karts. What I wanna see is the circle kart motor on the road kart, it makes more sense because if you modify the circle kart to turn right you're basically just turning it into the road kart but worse.

  • @Zachmaas64
    @Zachmaas64 2 года назад +144

    I think we are seeing mostly a difference in tires on these carts would love to see Charles Kart get the same tires as the t4. We use to run circle karts on road courses all the time.

    • @hybiepoo
      @hybiepoo 2 года назад +3

      Agreed - I think unless you're running the same tyres on each kart, you're not really determining much at all. You could just see charles' kart had very little grip on any demanding corner.

      @verigone2677 Год назад +1

      @@deangiacopassi1951 either shorten your right front suspension or lengthen your left front slightly for a start, those carts are setup assymetrical so that they always kind of pull a little left, let's you brake later and back on full throttle faster in the turns, since you know they are all the same direction. If you know how to fabricate, then you can do it all yourself with some scrap metal and what's already there, or for $100 - 200 you can get new hubs and parts to have a more even front suspension then another $100 to have someone fab any alterations if you don't know how to do that part.

      imo this video was a sell out.

But again it may just be a bad speculation on my part

    I feel like Charles' kart would be fine with some new, sticky rear tires. The front end was holding fine, but the rear would just slide. It's got a straight rear axle, so there's no adjustment there. Seems like the front end was OK, but may need an alignment to make it a bit less twitchy. I'd like to see a rematch after the $500 kart gets new shoes.

      I agree 150% , otherwise, he'd have smoked the ringer by such a large margin that I honestly feel he'd have lapped Ike easily.
      But he was chumped for sponsorship sake, I believe that to be the reason things were the way they were.
      Charles is an old dirt track racer from way back, and he's actually the best one at the majority of the little events they preform for the channel.
      Very obvious when you watch him when Ike's ego isn't around to be bruised by being second best because being one of the senior members.
      Not that I have anything against him, but it was very obvious when Charles joined full-time insecurities were getting to Ike

    I raced karts for about 12 years... 20 years ago... Karts used the frame for torsion suspension so to remain competitive at the highest levels, karts are usually replaced every year or two. They'd also get fractionally lighter and have track tuned engines and gearing. Sometimes we would tap-out mid straight, but our out-of-corner acceleration would make up the difference.

    I'm kinda glad all we had in my town was an old dirt track maintained by random drivers that showed up on the wknds. I had an old Margay with a huge McCulloch on it. The style was much different. Completely crossed up with two rooster tails coming off each tire through the corners. Back then our Yamaha shop sold a Yamie cart with a 100 or 125 on it. My chain saw motor would smoke the Yamaha fairly easily and four strokes didn't have a chance.

    Just gotta say, John you're a driver! 👀💯🔥 The 3 way footage, you could just see you carry so much more speed through the corners and your foot is pretty much flat all the time. Can see you know how to drive a kart properly. 😉🤟🏻

    I left a VIR kart in the grass at the end of the backstretch once because on the cool down lap that no one ever uses as a cool down, one of the front spindles broke. I waited, and even waved my arms, but the track crew teenagers never saw me or realized one of their karts didn’t come back and they sent the next group out. So I hopped the fence so I was out of the way, walked back with the helmet and set it back in the rack. The track crew was looking at me funny, so I quickly said the steering had broke and they could find their kart over in the corner. Then walked out. Since it happened on the cool down lap of my second session, it was still a fun time though. Nothing like a group of racers at a rental kart track.

    Chuck's kart is just like Ricky Bobby! It goes fast, and turns left!

    I would like to see all three of you make a similar video with cars, let's see your lap times in that Miata.

    charles' cart needs some new, sticky tires and some weight redistribution. i think then he would be king of this track. that beat up old cart must have really been something in it's day. from the lap times you can tell a few things, john weighs the least, charles is the most cautious, and if they were all in similar carts, with similar weights, ike would come out on top. he's got the skill and fearlessness to be a really good race driver. this format works so far, but if you are going to be doing a lot of this, you might want to get a couple more cameras on tripods set up at different points on the track to capture the action better. if they were remote controlled with powered tilt, pan and zoom functions, with some practice one cameraman could operate the entire set up from a central location. install the entire control system in one of those large road cases on wheels that bands use for concerts, then system set up and tear down would be quick and simple, plus it would protect the expensive function control electronics and video switching systems from damage. if you also integrated a dvr with editing software into the system, you would then have an all in one unit to capture, record and edit anything you wanted to make a video of at your home base, or on location, and since you have made this a full time gig, it would be a worthwhile investment into your production company. bonus, with a little time spent in research, prolly right here on youtube, you could build the whole thing yourselves, and turn the build into a d.i.y. video series, you are named cars AND cameras after all. with a rig like that, you could prolly even make some extra money on the side filming other events such as weddings, parades, car shows, commercials for local businesses and the like, once you got the hang of operating the system. the world would be your oyster, the only thing holding you back would be limits of your imagination.
