Pretty quick but in a 4 stroke you should always be 100% on the gas. You should only ride the brakes don't lift on the entry of the corner. It will help you keep the revs up and therefore have a much better exit.

@SpecPRDkarter not true, i have a biland sa250 and going full throttle through all the corners would kill me....it would kill the kart if i held on to it.

[SpecPRDkarter]

@connell256 Ah well that's what I heard about world formula or whatever it is. I don't know that much about 4 strokes you should just get a shifter they're more fun =P

[rotaxkarter]

pro karts are like driving a bus around a track

[CJMracing28]

in addition to gringopirate, the frame rate of the camera is 30frames per second, youtube only accepts up to 25 frames per second, therefore what you are seeing has been slowed by about 20%.

i'm starting and i'm getting a kart but these look slow and r they slow or r they fast ?

[gringopirate]

@PS3iscooll Prokarts arent slow as such, they can do about 90 but it all depends on the sprocket setups... the 2 strokes are generally faster karts but are much less reliable and the parts are more expensive... these engines are essentially generator engines tuned to be used in a kart... And at an inch or 2 off the floor 90 doesnt feel slow... It all depends what you wanna do wi ure kart...

nice vid n drivin, got a question bout the cam setup tho

how did u mount it? iv recently got a helmet cam but dont know the best way to mount it?

[CJMracing28]

hi, i got a cam called gopro hero wide 5 , it came with attachments to put directly onto the helmet. its a very sticky pad plus a helmet cam holder , they can be found on the gopro website

[craigmccann]

awrite yeah, different kinda cam from mines, i got a bullet cam from dogcam. but cheers anyway.

ps if u raced in june/july u prob seen me, i was the rookie in the blue sparco suit racin for the racing karts team lol

[CJMracing28]

just put the sticky pad onto the front top of the helmet. doesnt matter too much where the pad goes as the cam was on a moving arm to point it in the correct direction.

[CJMracing28]

i agree, showed DJ too much respect there !

[gringopirate]
