    The compound is more for road car tyres. Need something heavy to get the grip. Urm, I’ve had over 30-40 laps on it already and still the kart slides. The tires at the end of the last time I ran on it was starting to be sticky (i think it’s the heat the tyre generated) so I can’t say anything. U know the second long straight at City Karting, a slight turn to the right, the Kart instead of turning in will drift sideways from the left to the right. The tyre in my opinion will last long, but not enough grip for something as light as a go kart. Just wrong tyres. Just plain wrong.

    Was there last weekend with Iguana and bro and some other my-karters. Kinda F***ed up day for me though. Was in the first heat with Razak Halim. Was chasing his back all the time during qualifying but there was just too much traffic in front of us. I was the 10th kart out and had to chase 8 karts in front. Sh** 8 laps with some joker in front of me. Razak had a better time, i think 1 sec faster than my fastest. I couldn’t clock the best with all the traffic.
    Best of all, during the overtaking of all these slow coaches, at the end of the race, I was given sounding by the organizer for overtaking at the wrong racing line. I was like (WTF?) apparently, sticking on the far side of the track during a turn in is a wrong move??? Funny joker, but I accidentally knocked out a fellow driver on the first fast corner, and i apologised. Was feeling guilty after that cuz I was just too gan cheong wanting to overtake him I carried too much speed in the corner and went sideways into him. (he was out of the racing line cuz he went too in before turning in) But we reconciled and understood it was a race accident.
    Didn’t had a good day, but what the hey. Was frustrated but didn’t go home to a tody. I shall be faster the next time. Going to find the other second lesser route.
    Gonna make it to the final. GOnna win, gonna ride a formula BMW.

    My-Kart running it’s own circuit (Grins with Fazz)
    Anyhow, yeah that Uncle Richard or something. Heard the track is already running.
    Must be a reason they are running. Maybe Uncle Richard is up to something…

    Chill Chill dudes, I heard there’s a new track somewhere in Shah Alam. To be confirmed though. I’m looking for it. Suppose to be run by Mr Richard Lim. Anyone knows him? Half of City Karting Elite Mechanic Crew was taken up by him.
    Stupid to say the Sunway ppl letting Jokers play drift drift in a go kart track. Engineering wise it’s totally impropable as the crusher runs and tarmac insufficient to take such loads. Soon I think we’d be seeing pot holes in the middle of the race track.

    why not have it on a saturday instead of a sunday? a non working saturday is best. I usually have commitments on sundays.
    anyhow, do set up a date and see how it goes first.

    95kg weight I suggest u tap on the brakes. The Inertial Momentum of moving forward will keep u forward, you’ll lose speed but not as much as those lighter than u with the same technique. Also, you’ll tend to slide more in the corner as the centripetal force comes in. Extra 200-300 Newton at least. 😛

    5 days 10 hrs ago was the last time anyone posted anything on this topic. So what’s it going to be? MyKart Race Club or MyKart Grand Prix?
    The discussion on the topic seems to be quite cold since the last posting by the Fazz. What’s up in everyone’s mind? I’d give .2cents for everone’s thought.

    My vision is for myKART to be the racing equivalent of a company with an upstream and downstream business. Happy to discuss and share your views.[/quote]

    I think the problem you’ll find in a myKart company is the power struggle. 😛 something like in a TVB drama in the end of the day.
