UPS AND DOWNS OF KARTING | 2024 Club100 Sprint Championship Round 7 at Lydd Circuit | August 2024
It was nice to finally get down to Lydd, a track I have seen so much of over the years in footage but never had an event there, nor is it even with 3 hours of me to make a day visit. The facilities were well kept and was a nice track to visit.
Unfortunately it just didn't go my way at this event. I would say it was the first time I felt doing absolutely no practice did quite a lot of damage to my chances. The final was also frustrating as it was an incident I had no control over, but that's how it goes sometimes. The next round for me is at Whilton Mill and I cannot wait to give that track a go in one of these Club100 karts.
Enjoy the footage and see you soon :)

GRID SERIES AT BRISTOL | TeamSport Bristol #GRID Series | August 2024
มุมมอง 1467 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา
Cardiff was closed this week so I thought it would be a good time to pop over to Bristol and enjoy that track for a change with some of my other Cardiff friends. It turned out to be Grid Series and it was a 38 driver sell out! Had a lot of fun driving around, the format was quite basic but I made the A final through qualifying and have this 30 minute race to show as footage. I was actually the ...

Going into this event I was more excited than ever, Rissington Kart Club offer absolutely no opportunities for rental karting so I knew I was going to once again enjoy learning this new track. It really is in the middle of nowhere but luckily over the right side of the country for me to travel to! Hope you enjoy the footage, I call it a 'no practice podium' because there is a big emphasis to pr...

I am surprised I have not driven at Clay Pigeon, as I say in the video it's a track that is pretty close to me but doesn't really have a rental scene. I do believe they have owner karts but it's more of a Stag-Do vibe about them. It's unfortunate that I didn't hit record for my final but it was actually pretty dull anyways as the wet weather at the end spread the field really far. I still wante...

There's upsides and downsides to double-header rounds. I think it's great to get two rounds out of the way in a day.

Ellough Park is really far away, from what seems to be everybody. Are you seriously telling me people live near to that track? Despite the gruelling 5.5 hour car journey, I really enjoyed my time at Ellough Park and it was really fun to drive. It gives off the same vibes as Llandow in many ways, I guess that's just being a go kart track in the middle of nowhere. It was nice to get some time in ...

I originally thought it was a little bit strange to put "Finally, dry at Buckmore" in my video title but I think it fits my thoughts the best. When you travel over three hours to get to a race track, it's so frustrating that each time you show up it's raining and you cannot enjoy the speed of the karts on their limit especially through exciting chicanes and long sweeping hairpins. Thank you for...

I enjoyed the track, it definitely played into a 90s and 00s vibe with the look of the track and surroundings.

    Lydd is one of those tracks that rewards full commitment and aggressive driving to extract laptime so without doing practice it was always going to be a struggle. Give me a shout if you need some seat time in practice for the rest of the season. I've got tests booked for all of them and happy to let you have some time to get your eye in. Very unlucky with the B final start. I've seen the footage from behind, nothing you could have done, there were two people inside you and one drove into a gap that was closing and drove over your radiator.

    • @ChristopherBallKarting
      @ChristopherBallKarting 2 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Thank you for the offer! Sadly I am missing Llandow for a clash with an international event and that's my closest event 😆 The B final was unfortunate. I was very surprised when I was told I couldn't go back out. Generally you can just get another kart and dot around out of everybody's way! I don't blame them, though it was their kart being trashed. . I will keep testing in mind and see what goes, appreciate the view as ever and see you soon 😃

    Really glad you held up everyone behind you by managing to defend when you were in 9th because I had an absolute dog kart in that race and they probably would have caught up to me too since i was slower than middleweights on the straights due to the kart having no straight line speed. I qualified 2nd in the A and dropped to 8th because of that kart lol

    Yesterday I had similar experience. Guy was pushing me into walls at any overtake attempt so I had to go on brakes in order to avoid crashing into it. Then I managed to get onto his inside in one hairpin and was kind of wide on the exit so there was no space for him to go. Do you think he hit the brakes? No he hit the wall and almost flew of the kart... And guess who got "the talk" afterwards. Yep it was me. Am I the asshole?

      For three heats you have to start with a 'fair' set of positions. There were 28 drivers split into 2 groups with 14 in each race Heat. My starts were 6th (middle), 1st (front) and 14th (back). Another driver might have a 2nd, 5th, 13th. Another driver might have 3rd, 4th, 12th. I never enjoy the back starts!

    I got kicked out of a kartingcentre like this because of this situation. Guy constantly turned left in a righthand corner when i was beside him. I had enough of it and left a bit of space... and at the first right hand corner i floored the throttle behind him while he was braking, sending him extremely hard into the barrier. Got out of my kart, and stomped his helmet with my foot. Gave my thumbs up to him and left the track.
