Fastest Lap time stamp is at 5:45.
Update: As of 4/27/24 my fastest lap is a 25.7.
Track record is a 25.4.
My first time at the new K1 Speed in Nashville. Feels like a fun track, although the karts are tricky to drive with a lot of understeer.
Still more time to be found!
This was my 3rd of 3 races of the night. My only complaint - they won't let anyone use their own helmet cam! That's why the video here is so shaky, it's the rental camera. A little disappointing...

Fun track. Been to a few K1 and this might be the best track layout so far. Watching your faster laps let me see the flaws that might have kept me from getting into the 26’s.

The track pretty fun, my best time I had was a 26.102 but couldn’t ever break into the 25’s. Good driving 👍🏻

That's a good lap though! The lap times are definitely slower if it's a dead night and a cold track.

When I went, the karts were definitely slower then what you were running. Were those special karts or was that special event, or did I get screwed over when I went? (For context I was running about the same line as you were and was about 2 seconds off, and there's definitely a noticeable difference of your speed on the straightaways then what I had)

@@benedictringer296 Your kart was probably not turned up to full power. I believe they call it “level 4.” It’s up to their discretion to turn people up all the way, they usually want to see people running a consistent quick time and not be reckless. Tbh they’re usually pretty awful about this though, I’ve seen a lot of experienced people get stuck on level 3 for no reason other than it’s a newer guy running the controls.

27.6 was my best :/ my very first time ever doing carts tho. I’ve been sim racing for 6-7 months now but loved GT as a kid but GT7 is built different and better.

Nice laps. Did you trail brake on certain turns to keep the motor speed up or do you back out of the throttle some?

@afromikeracing Жыл бұрын

@@StevenCityChevy-Fusion ⁠⁠In this video I didn’t brake at all, just lift. I’ve now learned that it is faster to brake. No trail braking deep though, maybe just a hair. Trying to brake in a straight line and then get on the power early

Is this your home track or were you just visiting? I've raced there before but it was Music City. If you're ever in Memphis let me know I race wat Autobahn and this video makes it look like trash lmao

@afromikeracing Жыл бұрын

Home track. It recently got bought out by K1. The video doesn’t do it justice. It’s actually a great track, and it’s one of the better K1 experiences I’ve had.

I visited this track about a month ago and I wasn't allowed to record my races. Did you have this issue as well? I was as told I had to purchase a camera from K1

Hey can you please answer my question how much did you pay for this race and how many laps do you get???

@afromikeracing 11 ай бұрын

1 race is $26. It’s more affordable to buy 2 races at a time or go on Tuesday and get the buy 2 get 1 free deal. Their website has all info on pricing and specials. 1 race is 12 laps.

Did they have the junior karts when you raced?

They were there but I don’t think they were running. Not sure about them now, it’s been a few weeks since I’ve been back

I think they told me that these were the newest model OTL karts, and not many other K1 have them.

Yes they are the new Modell of the OTL factory. OTL super Leggero. The old Karts called OTL storm

@fifasims1996 Жыл бұрын

Did you never hit the brake?

@afromikeracing Жыл бұрын

Correct. I think there’s 2 corners where it may be faster to hit the brakes though - T3, the right hander that snakes into an S curve, timestamp at 0:39, and the right turn hairpin at 1:01

@fifasims1996 Жыл бұрын

@@afromikeracing that is crazy, granted I'm not very experienced but going into T3, T6 (I think (right before the backstretch)), and going into the hairpin I find it 100% necessary to brake into those. Most of all T6 because I have slapped that outside wall so many times on exit

@nldmaster Жыл бұрын

That looks boring as hell. Only about 4 real turns...

@afromikeracing Жыл бұрын

It feels better than it looks. The karts are actually quick and it makes a few of the fast turns challenging and fun. There’s also a LARGE bump at the apex of T1 (left turn)that adds another challenge. The front wheels basically go airborne over it each lap.

@evanwhite7226 Жыл бұрын

Yeah just raced it for 24 laps, cider doesn't do justice. T1 is sooooo hairy. You catch alot of speed going from t3 to t4. Then the back stretch. Definitely worth it.
