Thanks for watching! See you at the track!
What a blessing mr Dave was!! Gotta love the racing community
kart sounded like it needed a little shorter gear in it to have more rpm off the turn but what do i know just sound
This channel is amazing. Thank you from cold frigid Wisconsin
what tracks you goto in wisconsin? jefferson? oregon? slinger?
I have been working on my kart, I have the same motor you started on. The predator motor. Hope come spring time I can start making some laps myself at our local track. Keep up the good work, HTF has been a big inspiration
Seat time as you well know that is the key. Good job 👍 and great video of the night 🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁👍👍👍👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸📖📖📖📖📖HTF
Nice run, These videos inspired me to check out my local kart track this fall. Met some great people. Just got my own kart , can not wait to get racing this spring!
You are right about the work there is more work to kart racing than a late model good job.
Mr Dave T-shirt I'll take a large and XL. !!!
Oh yeah, can't complain about that at all. Joshua, when you'd hit your marks, you were fast. Faster than those in front of ya (what we could see!). To me, what appeared to throw ya off a bit was pinching the corner early; maybe a combo of letting off and toeing just a tad early, pulling ya flat on the apex, absolutely killing exit with the track being heavy like that. Then again, that's my take. Take it for what it's worth (if any). Gotta say, exciting! Damn I'm all tensed-up, hell -- I's even leaning' a bit (till I caught myself -- said "What the Hell?", and chuckled). I was helping' all I could!!!! :) Good stuff!!! A shout-out to Mr. Dave and Son - you guys rock!!!!
🏁Love to see more kart racing from hunt the front great job guys 🏁
Great job guys. I've been out or kart racing for a while but the sound of a motor bogging down is a sound you dont forget. It could be as simple as an air pressure adjustment or compound. Always keep a durometer with you. We ran 5 lbs on left side and 6 lbs on right side on soft clay track and 7 lbs and 8 lbs on hard clay track. I'm sure Mr. Dave has forgot more then i will ever know about karting. It looks like your in good hands.
Good job brother!
Keep Diggin!
Little less brake, but seat time is key!
God Bless!
Nice to have good friends and family.
I love how y’all just have fun
We put plexiglas over our side panels, saves your # and body,great video, keep'um coming.
I used to race carts. My how things have changed since i raced them. Keep the vids coming.
Same, I raced before all the plastic enclosed the tires. It was a lot more dangerous to use other karts as brakes, in fact it didn't happen. I couldn't survive in this style of racing.
I was thinking the same thing we just had the plastic number plate on the front bumper with side panels on either side..and I never had tires that wide. Lol
Looking good boy's lookin good....
but you and your family do amazing jobs I follow you guys all the time go karts and late models it's a totally different game
Youngblood Yarborough is the best in karting right now seen him win many races this year. You’re getting there man. That track looks wet all the time, roll the inside of your tires with inside prep. There’s many preps out there but Haskins Tire Treatments & Hi-Tech never let me down. Low air pressure. Gotta get tires punchin soft (38-45) on durometer for conditions like that. Need bite in your tire to grip the track you shouldn’t be sliding like you do. Lastly riding the brake kills speed whether it’s through straight aways or corners i never touch the brake. Love HTF & you’re getting better 13th out of 40 is not bad at all man good job
Last year in kart racing Yarborough made 129,000 dollars, so he is the best your going to find, he races for Palmetto speed shops
ethnn he needs to call Matt he will sell him some good prep.
Good job! Remember Rome wasn’t built in a day. You’re getting better every time out , and you’re having fun.
Great job, I think you're ahead of the learning curve. Keep digging brother
Yeah I agree with the car needed a bigger gear for acceleration.. definitely hugging the bottom entering the turns is a must.
Your getting better seat time is key. I think your starts were better tonight than last time on the track. For what little seat time you have you did very good at this event. Keep your chin up and get on the track every chance you get even if its only a test and tune session just to get more seat time. What happened to Johnathon thought he was going to come to this race. Did the weather keep him away? Have a great week. God Bless!!!
When you figure out how to get through 1 and 2 it's going to be on brother
I looks imperative in this type of racing that you stay low in the corner so you're gonna need some grunt off the corner.
Awesome man!
I think a higher line on entry would help with that mid corner push. Mid turn momentum is key 2 have a good drive off. Enjoy the videos,keep it up!!
Looks like you’re having fun. Keep at it
Serious note, coming off the corner don’t fight the wheel as much.. let her ride off the corner you twitch the wheel and run the middle of the straight away and that little wheel movement is a tenth everytime you do it!
Much better in feature,kart still pushing off!
KART's,., You know what boy's , It doesn't matter as long as we're racing..!!!
If you listen to the engine at the beginning of each race compared to the end of the race. The engine sound different as if you are not getting enough power or something. I am not a engine guy but the sound was something I heard.
too fast going into the corner = slow coming out of the corner, there is a fine line, just takes seat time, good video!
U should come to newsmyerna speedway fl they have w really fun gokart track
I think your doing a great job buddy. Hang in there and get that seat time
If you want to race up front you've got to have about 5 or 6 sets of tires to race on. Practice on a set, qualify on a set and then race on a set. That's how the big guys that travel all over the place stay so fast. Yarbrough wins all over the country so wherever he goes he's usually collecting a paycheck lol
Are those four stroke carts? What displacement are they?
A little more gear. Love the videos Greer SC
You doing alright you will get better the more you work at it
I know it’s tough but try to work on not riding the brake so much-it’s a common thing with new drivers but those little motors depend on staying wound up in order to make consistent HP. You’ll get better with each lap-keep it up.
Agree 100 percent..when I started my dad use to stand in the corners and watch if I was dragging the brake and when he caught me doing it he would tell me dragging the brake kills the clutch and if I do it again he taking the brake pedal off the kart..lol
Grew up racing with Austin, always been good competition. I’ve pulled a few wins over. I’ve been out of it for years now myself $$$ reasons, talent still here not much racing around here anymore besides the track where your at in this video. Probably just a lil over a hour from me. I need to come up an meet y’all maybe let me take it around for a few laps lol i’m jk would be fun though!
What kind of tires your running Burris or Maxxis
In kart racing its all about the tires. If you have the wrong tire/prep you have no chance in running up front . In the video the go kart never looked like it was down in the track. My family has raced go karts for 20+ years and still struggle at times to get the right tire/prep combination at different tracks. What prep program are y'all using ?
I totally agree
Definitely need to work on some tires!! Especially with a wet tacky track!! Keep digging, it will all come together.
Hey Joshua just had my first race and like James smith said let off a little and gas it the rest of the way but I came in 3rd out of 12 and they were all at least 4 years older then me
Good job, keep diggin!
What is the regulation on this cart racing I want to build one from scratch to compete with
Whats the tire rule? Can you run treads or groove them slicks?
Can you tell us what are the big things you’ve learned so far? Another video?
Love the karting videos
Is it possible to run higher on the track? To keep the RPMs up. Corner off, seems the motor, is to low on RPM. Maybe driving in a little to deep? Which forces the cart out on exit. This is all a guess on my part.
Man this is awesome, I use to race back in the early 90's and for about 8-10 years after... I'm in waycross georgia, sounds like ike you arent far from me, would love to connect with you on guidance and see where everyone is racing and what they are racing these days... would love a response so we could talk, my nephews are very interested and possibly me too!
Time for some new valve springs
Good job, hang in there. Your doing fine
Austin Yarbrough is a great racer, he won $129,000 in the 2017 season.
Nathan States what’s up Nathan?
Austin is good guy, he will run you clean, he is one of the few that will do that.
@@marlinmotorsports2130 not a whole lot Ricky. Just picked up a couple new karts to try, so we'll see how they go. Learned a lot this year, and hoping to run this weekend at Ashway. Picked up quite a few wins this year over there, hopefully I can get these new karts figured out and continue that streak.
Nathan States you pretty much dominated up there this year from what I heard.
My teammates and I are discussing bringing you down to drive one of our road race karts at Atlanta Motorsports Park, I’m hoping we can get that done! I may ride up if you guys run this weekend.
@@marlinmotorsports2130 that would be great if we could get that done! I won every race for over 2 months straight on that recon, and I felt like we had it running about as fast as it was going to get, so I figured we'd better get something new and try to beat that recon, but it has proven to be a difficult task so far. Hope you can make it over this weekend, if the weather holds out we will be there.
Nathan States that’s domination bro! That Minecon should be faster than the recon, just a slightly smaller tire window. Keep up the good work, and I will see you guys this weekend.
Looks like you had a dump truck push getting in.I would look at the chassis numbers.
Keep your chin up, we know you Joiner’s are racers!
Wait till you get upside down, you’ll wish you had that cage and racing seat with a five point harness in it. Buy a X-Y-G johnson frame and have some fun !!
you doing great ..... seat time
What type of karts are these
man you got killed on that inside line. get in there tuck in behind those guys thats a large track draft them nudge them up pass them repeat.
keep it on that low side!!!
i miss these karting videos, yall not racing the kart anymore?
Out of curiosity are you able to groove the tires in that situation?
From the looks on how your kart handles it looks like you could drive in a little deeper you may pick up some more speed in the turns or try trail braking the turns
What gears are u using seems like u need smaller gear on the front to get off the corner better when I ran a track close to this size I ran a 13/64 and would turn 6500/6700 rpm
What app did you use to see where you qualified
Race Monitor. A lot of tracks and series use it. Callahan only uses it for big races.
@@HunttheFront ok thank you
Stick to it use your bump n run like they do.. looks like fun though enjoy!!!
watching here on you tube it may be different than being there but it sounded like your engine was a bit to bogged down out of your power band but the cart engines i am use to are the old ones that was not that over head valve ones the power band in them may be way different
I have a weird request. Could we get Jesse some seat time in the cart. Just seems like that would be intresting
Kind of a rude comment... Joshua puts the money and work into that cart and needs the seat time to get better. The hardest thing for a racer to do is give up his seat.
No disrespect was ment. Was just asking a friendly question . So let me be a little more clear. I guess I should have specified when and where Jesse might drive . What I had in mind was the makeshift track they made at there shop. No one is asking joshua to give up the ride he paid for . Sorry to have offended anyone's delicate sensibilities.
B J Woolbright No sensitivities. That makes sense if you just want him to play on a back yard track. The first comment made it sound like he should actually race it. Sorry for the confusion.
Is the track just off 301
pretty awesome - new friend Ruthie here
What motor do you run ?
Track is much better with the new clay
Austin yaughburg actually runs with a team called hub breaker preps hes one of the top kart drivers hes from Virginia
Tyler Jackson Actually Austin Yarbrough races for the owner of P&P speedshop Johnathan Cash
Why don't we see no more video from you karting
Nice job!! The kart needs to be where you can hold it wide open, never cracking it (not bogging down the motor). Also, it needs to be good enough so you don't move the steering wheel. Good job though, Austin is the best if the best.
we go kart racers calling that. pinching the GO kart off
Austin Yarbrough has won everything in karts he use to run my sponsors prep for a while
I think you are doing good Joshua joinus
you should find points on the side of the track in both turns 1 and 3 to break on this way you use the break and the same time every lap and wont over shot the turn and some times slower is faster but you did great and trust me all them dudes thank they are dale Earnhardt
Tires get glazed up gotta maintain Them also kind of sounds like that motor was starving for air bud but not bad shoein
Looked like you needed to add a tooth of gear so you get more push off the corner. Also you don't need to hit the brake going in. "Burp" the kart. Let off the gas then immediately put her back to the floor. This sets the go kart. I would assume your running somewhere around 60% of cross. So when you "Burp" the kart it transfers the weight to the left front which makes it stick. if you set the kart on level ground your left front is off the ground so when your on the gas all the torque has all the weight shifted on the back wheels well when you left off the gas it shifts that weight. Kind of like riding a four wheeler. when you have it matted and let off it pushes your body forward. Same concept. When you hit the brake your adding friction which kills your roll speed. Also try droping a 1/2 lb of air pressure. Been messing with karts for 20 years.
His motor bogs so much in the corner, I personally think it's time for a motor refresh
its looks like that #12 cart was your Nemesis all night long.....stay inside of him,and wind it up......looks like maybe ur riding brake some times also....good luck brother!!!
Austin won at the big O he is always fast and a very clean driver
Better get some prep in those tires
Austin yarborough has been racing for years he has multiple free rides for racing he is really hard to beat.
Tires is key
I race dirt gokarts myself for 7 years now and a tip is you are getting off the gas too much in the turn. While I was watching I saw you could have gotten on the gas earlier. Just wanted to point it out
Let it float up the track coming out of the corners and stay higher on the straightaways
could there be a 2 cart team i the future ?
Boot legger kart*
Man your doing good...only thing I suggest is learn some better throttle control on how much to let off...usually you can let off going in and feel the kart "set" and that's when you throttle out the turn (usually about the apex of the turn)...and also learn to hit the same line every lap! Consistency is your best friend...do everything the exact way every lap...but that's just some of my opinions man not no criticism...you'll get there man
Looked like you ran high going on to the turns keep it on the bottom and don’t let them pass you 😂
Ya'll coming to Thanksgiving Thunder....?
How can a kart with slicks even handle a little bit out in that clag on the outside is beyond me. Crosscuts anyone?
You need to race champ kartd
Those young kids are pushing you around you got to stop letting them do that start pumping them around see how they like it
🙏
Why do you run slick tires on a dirt track
most karting tracks only allow slick tires
These racetracks are super packed down. If you prep the tires correctly they are by far better than grooved dirt tires.
Austin is my boy get with him on tire program he will get u good on tires u need more tires u need to go to a track with few set of tires
Your RPM drop is pretty high in the corners might have to try something else on gear.
Nobody passes on the high side ... So,- learn what they mean," ya gotta go slower to go faster-- trying to reach speed forces you off the bottom-- over dtiving-- you all are improving--- bottom feeders learn the bottom- we're rootin' for ya all
