I think he lifts a little just to save his ass from dragging. My shifterkarts seat was 7/8" above the asphalt and with tires running 7 psi you can get to touch. The seat is super thin so there goes your ass!
This is insane. I've raced FF1600, F-Mazda, FAtlantic in the US but this is as raw as motorsport can get because there is nothing getting between you and the track. This is a bucket list experience.
He is referring to the "normal" 125 shifter Karts used on Karting Track. You can change your gearing but still on big tracks like this it will not work that good.
Hey @@ICEMANZIDANE Long Circuit 125 Karts are perfectly capable of quick times around here. Google the current 125 videos from Oulton Park and Cadwell. Back in the day there were 60 125 Kart grids on the Silverstone Grand Prix circuit, their top speed was around 10 slower than the 250's.
I haven't seen anyone who has really driven a Kart criticising ! The critics are sitting at home with a mug of cocoa , and wishing they had the balls! Respect friend . You earned it .
the best perspective to see this is by walking eau rouge on foot... :p really steep ,and it jsut keeps going up until les combes, you just can't see that on tv
All the inline twins are very similar mate, they are easy to fit to a purpose built 250 chassis. I know VM were more cost effective compared to others but I don't know these days.
8:12 hahaha you did exactly like me and maybe every good driver in the world, minimal mistake = ''oh my god did i just lost 0,1 seconds i will be overtaked'' .
Peter W , is vol gas, kom je in 6de aan, maar mits de 2takt niet genoeg koppel heeft, moet je vol gas terugschakelen naar 5 voor daarna trg vol op het gas te gaan. Misschien met een andere overbrenging kan je in 6de erop en later trg naar 5de schakelen... de niveauverschillen in spa zijn immens voor een kart :D
Hi Luca, I think my favourit corner its Pouhon! its just a little lift of the throttle to enter there and then full throttle whole the way in 5th with a speed slowest speed its arround 180 kph there and max its arround 215 kph. And about Eau Rouge, It's full throttle in 5th since the 2stroke dont have enough torque to pull up there in 6th. at a speed arround 220/200 kph. but I did get used after some laps. blanchimont, nothing special, since superkarts are small compared with the size of the track. for the rest, Spa is great!
Wrong lines. Wrong gear. Wrong kart setup? Using the serrated curbs in a kart? Couldn't do Eau Rouge flat-out? Lucky he didn't have anybody else running who knew how to drive.
A Likely Story what are you talking about? 😂 hes flat out in 5th in eau rouge, since 6th in a 2stroke engine isnt possible.. those engine dont hace the torque to pull it off in 6th gear, and about the lines, why dont you post ur movies here where you show how its done? 🤣👍🏻😏
