    I raced in this race , managed to get a 6th place . It was my second year in 250E karts and I loved it. The hardest thing was the jump on the Peel cross roads , boy it was sore on your back , no suspension! The peel event was stopped a few years later as someone was killed. A local young lady! I remember her at the Andreas kart circuit each meeting but did not know here personally. How sad.

    The beauty of kart racing is that you can be a 7 year old racing 50cc karts or a 70 year old doing 160 mph on a 250cc death machine. It's one of the only forms of racing where anyone can join.

    My favorite part is the cam close to the pedals/feet racing with 150mph through narrow streets, every bump means airtime and I wonder if someone could reconstruct your legs at an impact at 30mph... I raced karts but 125cc max that go maybe up to 90mph max. We had one circuit with bumps like that. It sucks so much and eats parts for brakefast. I'd still try and take one of those to the nordschleife. That would be my way to go out in style. I'd add a front wing...

    From Wiki: Powered by a 2-stroke 250 cc engine producing 62 hp for an overall weight including the driver of 205 kilograms, Superkarts have a power/weight ratio of 440 hp/tonne (330 W/kg)(c.5 lbs/hp). Superkarts can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in less than 3 seconds with a top speed of 155 mph (250 km/h).[8] Their low weight and good downforce make for excellent cornering[9] and braking abilities.[10] A Superkart is capable of braking from 100 mph (160 km/h) to standstill in around 2 seconds, and taking corners at nearly 3 g (30 m/s²). Bloodyhell!

      @TheAdilly 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      That's the single cylinder machines, the 250 Formula E's are 250 twin, 80+bhp and up to 180mph depending on final drive ratio.

  • @supertrix101
    @supertrix101 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    I hear these karts can reach at least 160 mph

    • @alanpritchard6315
      @alanpritchard6315 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes that's true, in 1986 I was invited with 9 other superkart drivers from all over the world including the great Martin Hines, to do a 3 lap demonstration run at the Formula 1 British GP. On our 2nd flying lap we were all individually electronically clocked in excess of 160mph near to the end of Hanger Straight. we were all using Rotax Twin Cylinder 256 90hp motors, (not the little single cylinder 66hp motors that the young pretenders use today lol) & some of us our flying lap times would have out qualified some of the slower F1's on the day! & we were visibly far quicker through the newly establish Luffield Complex than the F1s on the day.

      @alanpritchard6315 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Roger Goff did race at the IOM GP one year, but didn't finish, Roger was one of the Greats IMO, and a real nice guy & fantastic engine tuner, we were racing pals & both enjoyed a beer together on many occasions lol...He's now working for one of the F1 teams I last heard...

    • @alanpritchard6315
      @alanpritchard6315 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes Roger Goff, is a great guy, and extremely quick, certainly one of the very best n fastest drivers in his day, Roger and I drank many beers together lol, normally the night before the final and both got tested in Le mans world championship one year lol
