Both of those drivers needed waking up, for the safety of themselves and other track users, he did absolutely the right thing...

@@mymodel6 You can talk and explain it to them in the paddock. If they blow you off fair enough to teach the hard way then.

100% agree, that method was a dog act, do that here your going home.

Absolutely agree. I don't really get why he even uploads this and trying to justify a stupid action.

@@AFFMotorsport no damage was done so i dont know why your 100% agreeing, i bet you've never had a situation like this then...

@@R3RS2024 Sadly I've been involved or around a lot worse than these minor issues. As the title says "I Crashed with this Guy ON Purpose..." the decision was made to crash into him, not avoid him, not sort it out like adults in an appropriate manner. This shows a lack of control, reasonable decision making process in a speend environment, what could happen in a real race situation . It's like saying that you hit someone, but it's ok because no-one was hurt. For someone claiming to be a pro driver (Which he is nowhere near that level) and posting it up for lots of young and upcoming drivers to see, many will think that kind of brain snap is acceptable, which it's not at any level. This is about getting views, not furthering his race career.

I would wait for ya ass afterwarts lol, and see what kind of big guy you are thn

your chassis has gone soft over the years, honestly when its that old its probably bent as well so not much you can do with setup or your driving.

Agreed

Also agree, completely dumb move

there's no stewards on a practice day, Plus its absolutely infuriating when a noob wrecks or nearly wreaks your kart and causes thousands of euros of damage. You merely give them the love tap so they have a better sense of what the hell is going on around them, its completely fine to crash people in karting this isn't f1.

@@R3RS2024 I kart for more than 10 years and I know that everyone makes mistakes. You say that his kart could be wrecked, which is right, but then you willingly damage your own and his kart by crashing on purpose. The exact same for me is true when Hamilton brake tested Vettel in Baku and Vettel crashed into Hamilton on purpose. Karters who do this should be banned for the rest of the season.

Hey man, thanks for your comment. I get your point, but I think you are missing a very important piece of knowledge: this is karting. Contact, even though it is technically not allowed, is a part of this sport. From the first time I was on the track to now, I've lost count of how many times I've been bumped off, not counting the times of other moments of contact. In the case of this video, the first bump was to move the other driver out of the way. No damages, no injuries, not even a dirty kart. He just got pushed slightly wide. This is a common tactic, used by everyone in the races and I've lost podiums because of this. Do I complain? No. This is karting. On a day like this there are no stewards, which means no warnings, blue flags or anything. My man randomly stopped in a fast corner which nearly ended both our days. He was so unaware that I thought it was the best option to move him out of the way. No love lost. Now the second one is a different story. The driver is a racer, he has racing experience and what he did was super dangerous to himself and others (366 and myself). I decided to scare him a little by giving him quite a hefty tap. Again, no damages, no injuries and this time he didn't even run wide. Just a tap to scare him into not doing that again. Was it a hard tap? Yes. Was it morally good? Possibly not. Is it a part of karting? Overwhelmingly yes. With my videos I want to show the world the true, unfiltered experience of being a kart racing driver. This is a part of that. If you don't like that: I'm sorry, then my content is not for you, which is okay. Bumping people out of the way is a daily thing for nearly all kart racing drivers. Just look at a round of Rotax or Iame Euro series. If you want to ban every single driver who has ever bumper someone, good luck. There'll be no one left

I’m karting we do that 😂

I just bought a ln kart 87 so hopefully it’s only the 88/89 batch 😅

yea like one little bump is gonna change the world XD

sameee

I didn't have insane jacking and bouncing though

@@RedExions Just with the normal setup my inside wheel will lift up high enough that when it slides out it smashes me down into the seat killing my ribs. You're just suffering from no rear grip?

I’ve had the exact same problem too, Hopping like crazy and so much jacking, but go the other way and it just slides. CY88

@@ashton.cattach I'm thinking it might be to do with driver weight distribution. I'm 188 so my center of mass might be too high.

@@teemoguides9033 You could be right, i’m about the same myself

Impossible. It’s not defective, it’s just low quality. No way to return a chassis to a factory once you used it. The only chance is to have a big team, where they can swap your chassis with a spare one. The old chassis will be then rent to gentlemen drivers, hobby karter etc… Big teams have a high turn over of chassis. That is also why gokarting is an expensive sport.

@@samalesi3188 i would be really pissed if i would buy a new châssis to find that the quality is bad. Not everyone can throw big money at will

Sodi kart recalled all of their chassis in 2018 because it was low quality, and we all got a brand new one. OTK is being sassy

@@RedExions never had that with Birel ART ;)

jecko makes your chassis stiffer. so you generate less mechanical grip so you don't just bog down on corner exit.

@@R3RS2024 thanks for explaining

jecko makes your chassis stiffer. so you generate less mechanical grip so you don't just bog down on corner exit.

every Karter does it so yea get lost then

also use the 2021 nosecone there alot softer so u dont get pens as often

It's not exclusively the LN Kart, it's all OTK chassis

Neh, beter dan gaan prokarten. Autosport is stukken duurder.

@@btracing nee hoor ik heb n vriend die in de DNRT rijd en hij schat ongeveer 10k uit te geven dus ja

@@E46-Destroyer bedoel ik. Met prokarten nog niet de helft van 10k kwijt 😀👍

@@btracing jaa klopt, maar hij zei ooit dat het 10 tot 20k kost per seizoen dus wrm nie over naar autosport?🤷🏼‍♂️

@@E46-Destroyer ah zo, ja in dat opzicht zeker wel ja

when they make money

What a retarded approach. Punting someone one completly of track for being slower than you, sounds like those types of drivers are the ones who need to learn to behave
