That was a great video. Thanks for doing this. I really would like to get into this. Like many of the guys on here I grew up with a go kart. Thanks again and keep up the good work.
1: Where your not utilizing the whole track, carry a little more speed through the turn and use all that track. 2: A chin mount for your camera would greatly reduce the constant wind drag. 3: On the long straights duck your head down, you can gain your top speed a little sooner and gain a little on your lap times. Other than that you're doing great!
Love the videos, could you perhaps explain more about the hand/ arm gestures, and about general setup possibilities (like f.e.toe in out, adding under/oversteer and why, can you adjust camber caster, wheelbase(with), etc.?) and explain why to apex early/ late in certain cornering circumstances, and how the rules to fold or pass are? Yep, I'm asking for almost the whole nine yards basically, I hope you might make a video about what I like to see, and perhaps I have forgotten other interesting Karting facts/ hints and tips you might want to share. Happy new year :)
Thank you Doug Marsh of Rocketech Racing for CREATING the LO206 class!!!!!! I am sooo glad this is spreading!!!! I raced 206 in 2010 at Thompson Kart Raceway in Thompson Oh, the heart of it all and I am just now getting back into it. LOVE IT!!!!!!
My lo206 stays at 4300 rpm when I go full throttle but I gain speed. Would it be my clutch allowing for the rpm to stay the same and the speed to increase?
@@jesuslarosa2735 - Yes the GoPro also has the track outline. For commentary, I attach a mic directly to my GoPro. I'm planning on making a video showing the set up.
From the looks of your RPMs i dont think you were using all the potential of the engine. You never once hit the rev limiter on the back straight. Add a tooth and you would prolly pull a little harder coming off the slow turns. I also noticed that you were dipping lower then 3400 rpms . I would try to stay above 3600rpm if you can. Gearing will definitely help you out.
baps2m I agree. Should just be bouncing off the limiter at the end of the straightaway with a 206. That will help you a lot. Try a 58 in the rear then a 60 if the 58 didn’t get it until you find it. You’ll see your times come down.
Well buy a good chassis, get an LO206 first and after learning the art of karting get something serious like an X30... if you haven't already done that since this comment is 1 year old.
