- Опубликовано: 21 авг 2024
- I set a 22.238 second lap time and so here is a video describing how i drive the track.
The lap was somewhat sloppy but i made it through with a quick line.
i want to be the first to set a 21 second lap!
Who else watching this because they about to go karting?
haha!! are you from Houston?
@@lowclassmediavideos no man from Missouri
@@yukigt5596 do you have k1 in your area or a different brand?
@@lowclassmediavideos yeah we got a k1
Me rn they did me cold as hell on the track
Steven,
Just wanted to let you know. I went to K1 tonight for the first time since watching your video. I've been in the mid to high 22s for a couple of months now only making small improvements with my best time being 22.543 about a month ago. I pulled off a 22.347 tonight. Huge improvement. Thanks for the great video. I'll keep working on it.
Tom
i got 21.893
@@kandikorn9378 nice yeah i need to go back and set a 21 or go for the record again
I guess I am kinda randomly asking but do anybody know of a good site to stream new movies online?
@Zayne Maxwell i would suggest flixzone. Just google for it =)
@Zayne Maxwell i watch on flixzone. You can find it on google =)
Steven,
Thanks for posting this. I'm the guy that asked. I learned a couple of tricks just from watching your lines that night but now for example, I have to work on my entry into the first hairpin because I'm carrying a lot more speed (thanks to your trick of setting up in the corner before the start). I have a lot to work on but took notes. I'll post up here later if I manage to improve my current best time.
By the way, thanks for adding the explanation. I didn't expect that but I'll sure benefit from it. Hope to see you at the track sometime.
Tom
HarrisSmythe gald i could help. its fun to try and get faster. its definitely a challenge. the first hairpin will really hurt your time if you cant make it through. all i can really say is just run as many laps as possible and try to drive through as fast as possible without sliding. i would take a bunch of races and forget avout your time and focus specifically on getting through that turn cleanly. that way you can relax more, focus on one thing at a time, and figure that first hairpin out. feel free to ask more questions if you have more in the future.
Thanks for the advice! I was thinking the same thing. I'll be out there practicing that first turn this weekend.
Thanks for the vid. I'm addicted to K1. Rented a 2-stroke Shifter Kart at Sonoma Raceway and I can't believe how brutal it was on my kidneys and ribs. I'll stick to K1 and motorcycles!
absolutely. when those start binding or hopping around they will trash you around pretty good. i love all styles of karting. electric indoor is where it started for me. this video is somewhat outdated as i believe the track record now is around 21.7 or 21.8. if you get to a 22.2 however, there really isnt much anyone can tell you after that. at that point youll have plenty of experience to shave the last few 10ths as you dial it in.
Edit: the current track record is much faster because the Karts have improved and i would imagine so too has the driving. Either way, the fundamentals examined here still apply.
Looks like the track looks different now
@@DailyDrivenM2 i know...what sucks is i made a new and better version of this video and now the track layout is changed!!
Steven,
I wanted to thank you one more time for posting this video and putting a lot of time into laying out all of the different things you try to do during a lap. I've been working on them a little at a time. It's a lot to take in in one shot. My 22.347 from a month ago stood as my best run until this weekend when I ran a 22.291 and then a 22.185. I feel like there are still areas where I can improve, mostly just getting more consistent in hitting my marks, but it really helped to have a roadmap to follow. I've told a couple of other guys about how helpful this was for me. Judging by the views a bunch of people have been watching.
Thanks,
Tom
HarrisSmythe nice hows it been going?
nice man sounds like you have gotten a lot faster. you beat my best time. good job. gonna have tl get up there and try and run a 22.0
wait you didnt best my best time lol. i ran a 22.15
Ive never liked the bumps after the consecutive corners, I'm a skinny guy and bounce around in the seat
hey man im 13 and in mexico im sponsored driver going big i went to these and got best of the week these are really sweet cars
24.058 This was my best time on my 10th. lap of my first 14 @ k1. I see no problem shaving 2-3 seconds off with practice.
more laps!!
When and if you come to Phoenix, please do one for that track. Great video and information. Well done.
im working on a new way to execute this video and my plan is to travel to everyone k1 speed and do a tutorial haha
I’m at 23.6 at Myrtle Beach but I just need to hit the 22.5 to get the next level. Considering I hit a 24.5 and got under my goal of 24 I know I can do it!
That track looks easy. One sharp turn only
all tracks have their challenges. its still hard to beat the fastest, even at an easy track.
They updated the layout it’s like 5 sharp turns and a full chicane
My name is Adrian and my best lap is 0.931 and this was today at Irvine costa mesa
It sucks that they changed the layout. Now it’s just hairpin after hairpin. No overtaking really. Kind of sucks now.
Just a psa when he says the karts likes to chatter and hop before the teardrop on that long right hander it's called wheel hop it happens in real racecars even on smaller 1/4 mile asphalt oval tracks in a high powered racecar with 700 hp when do the same thing wheel hop same with my legend car on road course
Houston track is amazing, the one here in San Diego is bit dull
Pull up.
Yea but they changed it a little bit
@@lowclassmediavideos mans already wants to throw hands 😂
i plan on going there this Friday or Saturday and it really helped . For the 35 bucks how many laps o you get again. thanks for the help in the vid lets hope i don't die when i go.:)
lol youll be fine. I think 35$ sounds like 2 races which will last about 10 minutes a piece and 14 laps.
is the only one commenting except for me a family member?
lol nah. no one here is related
holy crap i live here
Lean your head into the corners and it helps with skipping for me. or if you can put something heavy in the kart and it will help
Wyatt Smith you would think that but the skipping comes from too much grip being created too quickly. Best thing to do is actually lean away from the turn in order to get the kart to "jack" more and allow it to rotate without binding. In the case off this turn at k1..relative to the rest of the track its a "long sweeper" and causes the kart to push whip... easy way to avoid that is just lift very slightly. As a past, multiple track record holder, trust me when i say i've tried everything. This was a slow lap in a slow k1 Houston kart. Just a demonstration of the theory, not a real attempt at a track record.
This is a good guide. How did you get these OTL karts to hop less in hairpins? This issue has prevented me from running faster times in other track layouts that also use these same electric karts.
honestly you just got to drive it as fast as it will go without hopping. thats all i really know to say. its cold indoors so you have to just be real delicate but still fast enough to get it through there quickly.
So finding that balance is key then. These karts would be a lot more fun to drive without this issue. I will have to adjust the next time I drive these electric karts versus handling them like the Sodi karts I drive in my videos at my local track.
LONE WOLF 1 if you are hoping in turns you need to do a quick lift of the throttle to help settle the kart.
Just went today for the first time and got a best lap of 20.036 it was a blast
I’m watching bc im about to go to a bday
enjoy!
Who else is watching while waiting to race
hey is it true that during your first time they dont usually give you the max speed and power?
no sir
@@lowclassmediavideos ah, cause I heard a guy say they wont give out max power to people that were new to prevent accidents, thank you though, im relieved
Damn that makes sense now.. I was following the fastest guys lines and he was out running me somehow but it was my first time. I was doing 31.1s consistently. Too much carnage on the track 3/4 of them were over a minute because people kept wrecking lol so frustrating
How fast do these things go? I went to a place that went 50 mph and this looks slower
35 mph
how much are you pressing the brake for the hairpin?
just kind of depends. as hard as possible without locking up and also not killing too much speed
Im a kid and im gonna go to a junior leage and can i have hints to be fast
good luck!! everything is here in the video. smooth is fast!
I have no problem getting a 22.9 but I've seen 21 and I believe even a 20 on the board before and idk how they do it
the kart makes a big difference, but you wont be able to take advantage if you cant drive the line. if you can consistently get mid to low 22s without "the kart" youre ready!
How many laps is one race?
14ish
Not all of the karts are fast?
correct...some get jacked up from all the wrecks. only new ones that have not been wrecked are usually good.
just go slim then u fast
Goodness. Decent video and driving, but WAYYYY too much talking and information overload. Less monotone and “uhh” “umm” fillers.
lol i didnt even try to make this video watchable...very surprised to see its as popular as it is.
I actually had another version in the works but then they changed the track layout on me.
21's or go home!! Stop giving out all my secrets! I found 2 spots in that video that you could have improved on. You double lifted through 2 of your turns and slightly over drifted through the back corner. That will be $20 for that information. PayPal me.
baps2m please boy. That wasn't even near my best you snake.
wtf eletric schit
all karting is fun
