neat, balance and practicalare they actually allow bumping and shoving? Anyway superb driving skill it needs to do those stunts at speed of 2xx km/h 😀
hmmmm… the fastest lap for 80cc 1.10″ clocked by one of the k3 karters.
Average for 60~70kg drivers about
80cc average 1.14″
100cc average 1.04″
125cc average 0.57″Great experience, espcially night driving + heavy rain = poor visibility. Almost drove by feeling… hahaha
Last year, pitpasses were available at the car park at pit entrance, not too sure for this year.
Yes you are allow to mingle/visit around outside all pit garages during the race, however there also garage tenant(team manager) will not allow ppl to access their garage, that is really depending on them.
hey sorry hijack this topic for awhile
where you guys have TT session, I would like to join you guys too
[quote=RawFlesh]Does it helps if you sit infront to put your weight to the front for more grip around the corners? Or to move around?
Thanks[/quote]
Basically go-kart setup just like MR setup of a production car. Driver sitting at the center and the drive-train at rear.
Lean forward to get better weigh distribution to the front is rather similar asking the question “will FR vehicle better grip then MR?”
My opinion, they are both equally good but just diffent of driving them. At MR setup, immediate left of throttle at high speed during corner, it will tends to have oversteer and this is its basic characteristic. Good thing is driver do not need to steer so much to get into exiting corner position, just tapping on throttle to get the right position and speed. This is due to weight from the back sudden distribute to the front yet drive train at rear is pulling the vehicle down. Driver will be able to get a bit more late breaking.
FR of 50-50% weight distribution say for example, it has to accountable to front weight, as if doing the driving style as mentioned before, the car will understeer.
And so, this will back to the debate, slow-in-fast-out Vs late-breaking-power-slide.

wow put me table again? haha
I will not say 80cc do not need brake at all, especially when attacking. But the general rule is keeping the RPM high or climbing faster.
Example, if slowing in at corners and get a quick grip at exit, RPM will climb faster. On the other hand, if you have made a power slide yet keeping the RPM high (without much rpm drop) adjust on the steering for gripping (just like Fazz style), and of course no off line, they will be equaly good.
But either of these styles all drill down to the setup of the kart. Gripy kart won’t drift, driftty kart won’t grip. So whatever the condition/setup of kart that is (especially rental karts), have to adapt and learn as quick as possible.
