Did you beat your friend in the go kart race?

I actually have a friend who is quite good at karting, but he never apexes or anything, so I feel confident when racing him knowing that I have a faster line around the track. He just goes full throttle and misses the apex. Another great video. Good job. P.S tip number 1 (the tyre tip) is just straight to up evil 😂

@@salti4647 Good to know! I'm sure you can beat him if you apex at the turns and brake at the right points. Btw alot of drivers in top levels of Motorsport use similar psychological techniques 🤣

@@kartingtips I found that the instructors / crew are all great at driving. Ask them for a picture of track with racing line… slip them a £10.. ask them for the fastest Kart.. slip another £10 ….Job done

sadly no, my friend is just too fast on the track...

one tip i have learnt is that if you are racing against your mates you are most likely using a slow, low powered rental kart with no gears and if you slide into the corner you are usually losing a lot of RPM and you sort of need to keep a high RPM to power out fast out of the corner hopes this helps a few lads and lasses :))

Thanks for the tips man! I finally defeated my friends and drove a 36.734! (Yesterday I did a 37.924!) I really improved my racing line and braking points.. braking much deeper than before.

Thanks to your tops I finished second and it was only my 3rd time I do karting. I succeed some overtaking but for thé last lap I dis one toi much and my kart finished under thé wall of wheels 🤣🤣

1. if you slide with rental karts you are losing time every time 2. tap the throttle when it is possible so you dont kill the rpms on the single geared rental kart

I haven't lost a race to a friend yet, but I'm still not as fast as I can be. I did learn a bit from this video. Thanks, I'll apply it to my technique and see how it turns out.

Good short summary, one thing I would like you to clarify. You said that the braking "force" depends on the sharpness of the corner. But at the track I go there is one very fast bend after the main straight. Now should I brake hard (not locking up) immediately before the bend, or brake softer and more progressively to turn in?

@slick6537 2 жыл бұрын

Brake slightly earlier and then hit the throttle earlier to maximise the exit

I find in rental karts at local fun tracks the karts seem under powered...what has worked for me is not let off the gas and just run the race with feathering the brake throughout without ever releasing the gas pedal....i use the first lap maybe 2 to get the feel and see the lines and then go all out the rest of the way never letting off the gas....

sometimes when turning my kart starts hopping, does it affect speed? How can I avoid that?

@kartingtips 3 жыл бұрын

It will affect your speed and lap time slightly. As pointed out in the 'Great Weight Debate' video, with less weight you can experience more juddering. To counter the juddering you will have to change your racing line slightly through those corners.

My brother is better than me sometimes but I do good most of the time jk. I just sometimes steer too much. Can u help me beat him?? I brake hard sometimes too. The first time i was going go kart, for like 2 to 3 weeks before i was just watching karting tips. Now I go every month and try to improve my braking point. So plz help me, I want to destroy my brother.
