ParticipantGuys esp Mark,
Any easier way for the wannabe to register instead of asking them to register in this forum? 1 lady whom I’ve forwarded this email to is interested to be selected. 🙂
Insyallah, I can help out during the selection day and D Day now that I’ve got my car

ParticipantGuys esp Mark,
I’ve promoted to some people in Telekom and outside. Got one response already. Is there an easier way to get their info instead of asking them to go in the forum? 1 lady is interested and had responded to me email.

ParticipantFazz, I’m going there around 11am 25/11 with nephews and nieces who wants to race go karts. City Karting said there is an event in the morning for Saujana if I’m not mistaken. Saturday morning also got event.
Guys & gals, have broadcast this forum and chicken wings session as well as coaching session to the srikandi gals. Will see if they are interested ya but I suppose chicken wings is too short of a time.
Mad Marcy
ParticipantSorry bro, no Chicken Wings or Sepang for me this weekend. I’ve got my family from Johor to entertain.

Participant[quote=Nohad][quote=TheFazz]One thing that I will not do next time is run 15 karts in the K3 class without sufficient spares (at least 5).
[/quote]From my personal viewpoint, I know quite a few K3 drivers had a very frustrating day and to some extent to some K2 drivers too as there were no spare or just lousy karts available if one of the karts break down.
Moreover, some of the K3 karts are basically “lemon”. This can be very frustrating as you become non-competitive at all from the start but merely a passenger on the kart. This doesn’t go down well with any of the karters as the main reason we are there is to compete and to compete as evenly as possible. BUT we have to understand that we are running on rental karts and performance do varies from kart to kart.
I did spoke some of the mechanics regarding the tuning & handling of some of the karts and the feedback is they did tune up the karts to be as even as possible but as time goes on, they couldn’t be testing every kart as they are quite tied-up with the daily rental karts and some private karts.I do understand due to time constraint, we try to minimise the number of races as much as possible. But running without spare karts or very minimum spare karts is indeed running on a very thin wire. I know this as I did organised a private race before with 13 karts per heat and even with that we face having spare kart problems.
IMHO, the most ideal race is to run K3 race with 11 karts max per heat and 8 karts max per heat for K2.
The fiasco in the K3 Heat 1 lap chart recording is somehow directly related to the spare karts availability. Some of the karts are practically not in ideal running condition and the karters changed the kart before the race or during the race without informing the marshals somehow confused the lap charter and that resulted in the delay of starting the final race as race positions need to be sorted out slowly.
To avoid such confusion in the future, we will need 1 marshal at the pit to oversee the changing of karts and record the change of kart. The record to be provided to the lap charter at the end of the race.
At the start/finish line, a minimum of 3 marshals shall be available. 1 marshal to record the kart positions on each lap, 1 marshal to read out the kart number to lap charter marshal & 1 marshal to change the lap display + to look out for any distress kart + waving of chequred flag.[/quote]
Agreed with you running 15 karts is like going to a market – dah lah bawa raga 🙂
Round 1 is a superb learning experience for me. Thanks Jason. I did better in the wet tracks probably because of my weight and a good kart. One thing for sure is that CK takes a very very long time to help drivers in distress. We practically have to pull ourselves out and into the track again. I had to do that twice and I can’t imagine if my engine stopped coz I don’t even know how to start it again.
I believe it is better to have 3 races for K3 with max 11 drivers than having 15 on the track. We had the same problem in Race 2 if I’m not mistaken where I did highlight we should not be having 15 drivers on the track but apparently we did the same mistake again for this race. Hmm… are we learning from the concerns of the drivers? Once bitten twice shy – the impact will be your drivers will run away. So think about it before things gets out of control.

Participant[quote=OSFlanker]Alex Yoong….hhmm, I am not too sure about that. Talent wise, you can see from A1GP he is not the most talented driver out there. Otherwise he would be fighting for podium finishes every race, which he is not.
No doubt he is doing well, though he does have an upper hand in that he has driven more powerful machines than those A1GP cars. Most drivers would have come from lower formula cars so they will find the extra power hard to handble at first. Still, he is probably the best Malaysia has for the moment though I think you will find most of the City Karting kart team would beat him hands down in a 125cc kart! Jules, what do you think? I think even Uncle Jules can beat him in a 125cc kart race!!!!![/quote]
Agreed with you, don’t think he stands a chance.

Hey Marcy is that why you’re such a speed demon…??? hahaha![/quote]
ahak ahak ahak. 🙂

ParticipantI’ve noticed that City Karting takes a long time to help drivers that have mishap. Probably it is wise to ask them to be stationed at some of the identified corners. In Round 1 since it was slipery, a lot of people had to push the karts off the grass themselves. There’s a lot of time waste here. Every seconds counts.

Participant[quote=Iskandar Zulkarnain]The way we’ve been operating is that who gets started up first gets out first, which leads to a lot of confusion regarding the K3 starting grid. Therefore, I propose we have a system where we make sure that the polesitter gets started up and out first, followed by everybody else in order and to keep it there till the start. And any tardiness gets penalised. comments?[/quote]
This could be done provided that the karts had been arranged as per the position before take off to the track. Else, the person whose suppose to go earlier might be behind another kart and he/she will not have any room to maneuvre to get out of the pit.
