@@RobertoSotoAdepends on the track to be honest. Too tight and your working the Kart versus letting the kart work for you. Track design plays a huge part too on if the track is setup for a "fun" track or "competitive" track for indoor. There's a few K1 tracks that have a track inspired feel where the corners are actually corners vs straight barrier that gives you no "apex" line. I'm fortunate enough to work at a K1 where the track design actually has a "racetrack" inspired design with varying tightness of corners and actual apex lines
This track however looks like a very fun and well designed track ... once it opens I'm definitely gonna check it out. Those E-Racing Karts look very fun
@IAmAnonymyz Completely agree. A lot of K1 tracks have a bunch of "fake" corners that, if you think about it, make no sense. To me, Irvine and Anaheim K1 tracks have a more competitive feel to them. Maybe it's just me 🫠
@IAmAnonymyz It is. Hopefully they add barriers around some corners cause that straight away before the S turns will definitely send a good amount of people over that cliff next to it 🥲🥲🥲🥲
I would say arrive and drive K1 Speed indoor locations pulls in a lot of ‘normies’. Outdoor locations tend to only attract enthusiasts, and enthusiasts tend to have more respect of karting.
@@chasemer6 True but at the same time all of these karters qualified through the K1 Speed pipeline. Also, we’re super spread apart and these tracks are massive compared to K1 indoor locations.
@@dipdip7250 Me personally, I’ve only ran in rental karting, even on my outdoor videos it’s still rentals. If you compare it to owning your own kart, rentals are always cheaper unless you plan on competing. I prefer outdoor karting but I only have access to indoor karting (K1 Speed).
@ryanrow6357 it's still up in the air. Next people to get on track are gonna be the GP winners. Hopefully, after that they'll announce an opening date. My guess is end of 2024.
Would you say minimum speed is just as important in the normal indoor rentals or do you think the more powerful motor compensates for that and I can play around with my driving style more?
I think on these outdoor tracks you have more room to play around with your technique. Ultimately there’s always gonna be a more optimal way of going around the corners. Indoors there’s an optimal line and straying away from it will always slow you down.
The track is very "green" so it's still fresh. Rubber hasn't been put on the racing line still since we were the first group of racers on track, so grip isn't there much. Also, in my opinion, the track gets dust easily, so grip comes and goes sometimes.
@@drewgrows7765”all karts are the same.” I’ve gotten only one kart that was suited to me and I was like a second faster than my pb but yeah the tires feel terrible.
Damn looking nice! Looking forward to see where I place for the teen cup 😃
Good luck! 👍🏼
@@RobertoSotoA thx
@@SurRonDudehow’d you do
@@user-cq6fp6nh8r it’s multiple races, but so far I’m doing well
This is soo sick!
Can’t wait till it opens! 😩😩
Its crazy to see the difference in driving styles between indoor and outdoor karting.
Yes! I find myself needing to actually use the entire track outdoors as opposed to indoor karting where you try to make the line as tight as posible.

It’s awesome to see no bumping guess the extra speed demands respect ✊
The rules are pretty strict since these are legit competition E-Karts. You’ll get fined if they catch you being reckless/damaging the karts.

@@RobertoSotoAdo you prefer indoor or outdoor karting? Keeping in mind the price differential, that is.

Hey man, I was there racing with you
Awesome! How you like the karts and the track? 😎
Looks like a fun track, what type of speeds are you reaching down the main straight and what kind of karts are those?
We're doing 60+ mph on the straights. Depends on how soon you get on the gas and how much corner speed you keep. It's a very fun track indeed 👌👍
Did they announce an opening date at the event?
@ryanrow6357 it's still up in the air. Next people to get on track are gonna be the GP winners. Hopefully, after that they'll announce an opening date. My guess is end of 2024.
Hopefully you mean end of 2023 lol

@@RobertoSotoA Thank you!
Are the karts as understeery as they look in the video
The track is very "green" so it's still fresh. Rubber hasn't been put on the racing line still since we were the first group of racers on track, so grip isn't there much. Also, in my opinion, the track gets dust easily, so grip comes and goes sometimes.
Their indoor carts are worse. The tires are too hard compound
