This is a Division 1 Superkart. It’s essentially what you get if you put a Formula 1 car in the washing machine but you keep all the scary bits.
To save you the math, that’s roughly 690bhp per ton - more than a McLaren Senna and more than ANY GT3 car. The difference is, you don’t get any seatbelts in a superkart. Even if you could hear me over the noise, you would hear me saying ANYTHING of use. The vibration and the savagery of that kart was a bit much for someone who had never driven a quick racecar before. Let alone one of these things

Use to race unlimited 125 CC Shifters (106mph max) and had a friend racing the 250 cc on the California great tracks like Laguna, Sears point, Big Willow and others. At time the great 4 times Grand Prix Motorcycle champion Mr. Eddie Lawson would come race with us in his Yamaha 250 cc superkart. It was not even a contest when he was on the track. The guy is crazy fast. One year the club did an exhibition race at the Rolex Sport Cars Series (2000 to 2013) that was held in Laguna. Patrick Dempsey was racing Mazda Rotary at the time coming to check out the 250 karts and the drivers as they were just 3 seconds off from the Rolex Series GT Factory Cars (1,000+hp). If I recall correctly, after checking out the kart, Patrick looked at the driver who raced the one 250cc's and said. "you guys are nuts."

@sodaaccount Год назад

Back around 2000 they drove those things on the Nordschleife. Not at racespeed, but definitely not slow either. I was around 8 back then and I had mad respect for those daredevils. If anything, my respect only grew over the years as I found my way into simracing.

@DeFausti Год назад

GT3s running around the Nordschleife is already super scary, can't imagine with this or an old F1, the drivers back then were absolutely crazy. Or as Niki Lauda said: "My personal opinion is that the Nurburgring is just too dangerous to drive on nowadays,” he said . “On any of the modern circuits if something breaks on my car I have a 70/30 chance that I will be all right or I will be dead. Here, if you have any failure on the car, one hundred percent death. We're not discussing if I make a mistake, but if I have failure on the car. If I make a mistake and kill myself, then tough shit."

@fredpinczuk7352 Год назад

In the rain, second corner at Sear Points. Then later at the last right just before the Carrousel. Be honest, the scariest for me was when my front tires overheated. They were my practice tires but gripping so well I decided to keep them on for the next event. Was a Big Willow in Willow Springs CA. Was on my 5th or 6th lap, 1st place. Doing about 105 mph on the long straight and into the left hand bend. Lost complete grip, and understeered at 70+ mph out of the corner and into the gravel. Managed to safe it, and finished 2nd place. Still have the skid plate mounted on my garage wall with all the scratches and rocks hits.

@rustymustard7798 Год назад

That thing is sick! I'd send it! I've driven fast carts a few times back in the day, almost bought one to race at one point, they're terrifying lol! At 80-90mph an inch off the ground feels like triple that. Scariest thing i've probably piloted ever was a tiny reverse 3 point hydroplane. It was a 10' long closed cockpit with a fighter jet like canopy and a '90hp' Mercury outboard tuned way past 90hp. It was all of about 3 feet wide at the back and had three small zinc 'ski' plates, one up front below the nosecone and two on tiny rear sponsons, the reverse of a normal hydroplane. You had to be delicate with the throttle and jackplate to get it up on plane and not just backflip, and once it was up on step it was terrifying, like being strapped into a sea skimming missile. A mile by half mile lake got real small real fast when i went full send over triple digits with the screaming 2 stroke wide open and everything going blurry from vibration. Doing the run along the opposite shore i hit a bit of my own wake and got squirrely at full send, bouncing from side to side and almost rolling it.

There's a go cart place in my town called drift cart, and it's basically an indoor dirt track that you can drift go carts on and race your friends.

If they want to eject in a crash, Callum should have been wearing motorcycle leathers (like the guy who helped them restart the car), and probably Scott, too. Sliding on that asphalt would have eaten through Callum's jacket and skin in seconds. I'm not sure about Scott's race suit, but I suspect it's more fire protection than friction protection. Also, what was blurred out on the hood of the Bananaru? I feel driven to discover that. 😄

So cool. As a kid in the early 60's, my dad helped the McColluch Gocart team with local races. He and two coworkers (one was a Master Mechanic) helped tune/fix their engines for the races. These were the old 1/4 to 1/2 mile snaky tracks, nothing like the track in this video. The team had a cart with dual engines - one on each rear wheel - that they did time trials with. Use small local airport runway to time the run. They turned a time of 110 MPH on one run. Quite a feat at the time. Given they were not built like today's carts. So really cool to see this one flying around on a big track.

As much it was funny to see Scott terrified, I think a bit of it was for show lets be honest here!😂 Don't get me wrong these 250cc karts are no joke but I'm sure the experience Scott has as a racing driver, I'm sure he could handle it. 2 stroke karting from the 80s and 90s with the 100cc to 125cc and the 250cc are regarded as the closest thing to an F1 car in terms feeling the speed and how close you are to the ground. It's why so many top F1 drivers go back to karting for training instead of driving junior single seaters. Wish karting was a cheap way to compete but unfortunately like everything it's become a rich man's sport...😢

there has been so much bs since the 70, on how fast they are , martin used to say they were recorded at 160mph at silverstone in the early 80,s , now we have sat data giving the true speed , superkarts have a long way to go to class them as the fastest

i recall seeing a video with David Coulthardt driving one of these a long time ago, he may still have in F1 back then, and he was blown away by the sheet performance of these supercarts, he said it was the only racing car the that was similar to F1

I'm REALLY looking forward to Callum in Caterham. That's gonna be so fun to watch

i’m surprised they’re arguing about how they don’t want to go first, i would volunteer so fast they couldn’t even recognize my hand above my head

@lesflynn4455 Год назад

That actually looked as terrifying as Scott said it was. Those superkarts are wonderful things. It's just great that they can still race them but have adequate safety measures nowadays. NOT like Adelaide in 1991.

@DaBlob69 Год назад

That thing is so scary it made Scott forget how to speak.

Before simulators F1 drivers used karts to keep sharp in the off season, the sensation is the closest thing to an F1 car.

"Callum! Callum, you stopped!" god i laughed at that. so unexpected.

I love these videos and this channel as a whole. You all seem like such down to earth guys and it’s nice to be able to watch this sort of content with people who aren’t pompous jerks, aren’t trying to constantly sell clothing or merchandise. I hope this overdrive continues to prosper but remains the same as it is now in regards to you 3 and your content. 👍

We can only imagine what you relived there. thx for sharing!

I remember discovering these super karts in an article when I was 8 and the article was about David Coulthard describing this as the scariest thing he ever experienced. That day I knew, if it was too much for a F1 driver, it must be too much for me

I'm sitting here watching with 7 broken ribs, when Scott made "that comment" at the end I almost passed out trying not to laugh 🤣🤣🤣

This channel is the modern day Top Gear :D. Keep up the excellent work! By they way, it was unexpected to see 'driven' censored at 8:42

Ha! Best vid yet guys! That thing looks mental, well done Callum, looked like you had a good crack at it. When does the caterham season start?

@Wooffl Год назад

My dad raced these for years. Those races were absolute carnage, sometimes 40+ karts on the same track

I would absolutely destroy every single track record in that thing.

@dirtroots638 Год назад

I’d love to see y’all try motocross. That’s the kind of stuff I do and I’m 13. I’ve done it for long to where it doesn’t really scare me and I want to see the reaction you guys have.

ive seen some circuits lap times wich are: F1 > supercarts > everything else... theyre crazy fast

@chadheesch7040 Год назад

You guys need to try a speedway midget. I was lucky enough to try one and oh my word. A mate of mines a rally driver and he's scared shitless of them. The short wheel base, high power to weight, relatively narrow tyres, and no aero mean they are frightening. Combine that with the fact they can pop wheel stands and roll all by them selves, and you've got a frightening beast. Oh, and that lack of aero means when they do flip they just keep going and going until a concrete wall stops you
