Jules, that is indeed Mikko’s guide, or have I missed something? Could you then guide me to the correct one?

Thanks to all those who have helped out so far

Well I think that if there is really no need to brake, then why should you? But that is a valid point (you wont be able to learn proper racing fundamentals), but perhaps you can learn those when you go up to a higher kart?

Ah thanks Nohad, so I assume the current course would start from T9-T10 and proceed to T11 T12 etc etc as per the sketch?

Thanks Nohad, I assume Turn 1 is the same ya?

Nohad is this the same turn 10 as the one in the pic below:

Let me just clear up some things, trail braking when applied to go kart is this:

Give it a good read, based on what you guys have said I guess it only works on karts with high speeds.

So let me get this straight, on an 80CC kart on City Karting, I almost don’t have to brake at all except at those 2 points mentioned? But does this still mean that there are times where I should be lifting my foot off the throttle a little?

Also I would like to ask this, for the 80CC karts do driving line matter? Since there is almost no braking to be done I would assume that how you turn into corners are not that important? Or is the racing line still very critical?

Btw is turn 10 the almost 180 degree right hand turn?

Thanks to all of those who have helped out, I really appreciate it

timmsm thank you very much for your input…although I am still curious about one thing, does trail braking works with the 80cc kart? Or is there a better way?
