DG! Man that red Kart is on rails. Easily the fastest kart in that race. I don’t understand how a loose exhaust pipe would be a DQ? Crazy. Love the aggressiveness on the comeback
Yeah, it had a few people scratching their head. I need to look up the rule book. Tech said it was 20 point Something. Gasket was in tact, front bolt was snug, rear stud was backed out. Double nuts still attached.
@@DegenerateGarage I’d think a loose pipe would mean less horse power smh. Rules are the rules I guess. BTW I’ve been screwed by the tech guy before. Won a money race vs 30 Karts. Got DQ’ed for a carburetor jet that was to big. The tech guy was the one who sold it to me! So, I had to argue my case. Went home with $200 LOL
You looked good. That said, in my experience, flat footing isn't fast. Free up kart a lil'. When ive had race winning karts. Flat footing wasnt an option. You are carrying too much speed in entering the corner to flat foot. Burping throttle also sets the chassis properly entering the corner.
You didn't get run over. You hit your apex too early and they scooted right by you. You need lots of work on hitting your marks in the corners. Watch the early practice laps of this video and you ran good lines when you were forced to pass on the inside of the corners.
@@roosteratkins1759He consistently misses the apex and sends him off the corners wide and gets him passed. It will continue to happen until he fixes it. No excuse will fix it.
100% maxed out on rpm’s, yes chopping the apex is a common thing in my driving, I’m working on it. Typically takes me a lap or two to settle in at this point in my career, I’m working on it and can definitely feel when I get the line right.
@@DegenerateGarageYou'll get it. It just takes lots of laps. Maybe use spots like bowling. Aim at a spot further down the straight as you corner. It might just be a matter of looking farther ahead. That apex sweet spot you miss is only a few feet. You'll find it. Your kart seems to have more speed than most of the others, so you're doing well on your setups.
I bet next video you’ll have a black eye driving like that literally hit every kart out there. when dude turns around that means do it again and you’ll be picking up your teeth
Been a long time since I raced karts but yeah, all that bumping and shoving would probably have led to a donnybrook back in the day. Expectations were a little higher back then, at least where I raced.
Good job Nick. Lets get the heavy dialed in. Your doing great this year so far!
I’m ready to go fast!

Way better line this week! Just sucks you got screwed on the start. Better luck next race!
Over a header bolt being loose?
Yeah… and I can’t find the rule book to look it up. Tech man stood behind it…
Hey bub your ok??
Yes sir! We had two weeks off, three videos coming soon!
Is everyone flat footing that track? I haven't ran Florida tracks.
A few fast karts, most of the field burps it heading in, some say they trail brake
Jmo it looked to me like you were a lil faster the few laps you burped the throttle than when you were flat footed
But definitely looked good tho!!
I agree, just trying a few things@@roosteratkins1759

I’m the dude he pile drived! I ain’t mad 😂 he’s my pit partner! Anger Management is the key to life!!!
Next time I’ll try writing him a letter, politely asking if he will allow me to pass.
Must be nice to hide behind a screen
Keyboard warriors out in full force!!! 😂😂😂😂
