Heh:) i got that number 2 down, when i started karting i usually didnt know that i can just go to pits every once in a while and drink water or go stretching or something so i just drove like an hour 50-70 laps and later i realized that i had lot of shoulder pain and that i can just take a brake, so tip from me dont drive nonstop too much. And amazing video thank you :))
what i love to do for training is inviting a friend and have a litle batle between us ^^ it helps me to understand what i can do and what not.. and it's fun
Commonly see tired drivers at the end of an event. I do Enduro karting of races between 6 to 24 hours generally with 3 drivers per kart. So many drivers are spent by the end of their first stint of the day, stints can be up to 60 minutes each, I commonly do 55 minute stints and 3 of them in a 6hr race. Race Fitness is the key, I'm by no means the fittest person out there, but I can do the stints and at the end of the day be within a couple of tenths of my times at the start of the day.
Hi Ryan! I'm currently 17 and just started with karting, have been to 2 test days and the team I was with said I have some potential with me only sitting in the kart second time in my life and already nearly 1-1.5s off the fastest racers in my country. The main problem at my track is that Minimoto/Moto and Kart sessions switch around every 15 minutes so I can't really do endurance sessions. Second of all I asked my mechanic about whether I should try another setup for the kart so I could get a feel of it or get more comfortable with the kart itself and the answer was that I can't because first I would need to get more up to speed and then only change setups at races I would possibly attend. My question is what is your opinion in this case with setup changes? Thank you for this video and for helping out the karting community with your tips, tricks and so on! Keep up the amazing work!
I think you should still be able to try some stuff to get a feel for it. But at the same time 1-1.5 seconds is quiet a bit of time to really feel changes in the kart. You also don't have much track time so adapting to the track itself will be a big learning curve alone. For now, just get more comfortable in the kart and try and close that gap. Once you feel you've gotten consistent, then try stuff on the kart.
Teams telling their customers that they "have potential" is the oldest trick in the book. You'll see parents throwing thousands of dollars at these teams under the impression their kids are on the fast track to Formula 1. Just be wary of it. As a newbie at 17, you're going to be racing a lot of guys who started at much younger ages. Just enjoy the process, don't break the bank and don't get too ahead of yourself.
So today at my local racetrack we had a guy who drove 15 laps, from start to finish in first place driving one handed. he was using his right arm to hold the air filter in place the hole race. ggs to him
What about tires for practice? I’ve never practiced with new tires, but would imagine it would help in learning how to prepare them for quali and races. I usually use one race old tires for practice, but tell myself the rubber on the track isn’t like a race day so it’s not really relevant. Thoughts?
Practicing on new tires is good. At some point if the tires are too old even on a bad track, you aren’t going to learn anything. I don’t think you have to go new every practice but staying on good tires is a benefit
You just need to be there every lap. If you push them on the straight they’ll know you’re there. No need to drive dirty. Drivers will crack under pressure. Thanks for watching!
Going to get my own kart soon. What would your tips be to be able to get as much practice time as possible for as cheap as possible? Also how much do you think one would have to drive to catch up to the guys who have been driving since they are 8 if you are 15?
should all brakes lock? I bought a brand new CRG chassis fully assembled from dealer and for the life of me I can't make the rear brakes lock like my old chassis? I actually feel the brakes are weak. I stand on them and they just don't feel strong
Yes they should be able to. Im surprised to hear that you can't do that on a CRG. I'd double check everything in the brake line. Maybe there is air in it. That doesn't seem right.
What's a good drill if you can only practice at local karting track I'm gonna race sodi rental kart series vid is 3 yrs old hopefully your still available 😢
Recently I completed my 1st Euro level race… I started having this weird thing where I always hear a kart engine behind me, when I looked behind after the race there was no-one close enough. That same race made me realise my pace is not good until a couple laps into the race, don’t know what I keep doing wrong because I feel like I’m doing the same thing every lap. Your advice helps, but I still have a long way to go
Can I offer some constructive criticism? The relative zooming in and out is distracting. Using it for effect here and there is great, but repeatedly throughout is nauseating Felt like I was a passenger of a jerky driver. Content on the other hand was great. Keep it up!.
The best line in the video,"remember you are there to learn not there to go purple"! Thank you for taking your time to share your wisdom.
I would agree! Thanks for watching

Yesterday I was practicing wish I knew a few things like these
Now you got stuff to practice next time 💪
Road to 5k and, I love tips for karting, because I'm only Iame Cadet and I still have things to learn!
Yes sir! Almost there! You luckily have a lot of time to learn it
This is a great video, thanks Ryan. I'm saving this video to favourites for later viewings.
Thanks man!
Thank you! You are AMAZING!

It’s super important! Enduro karting is a blast I’ve done it a few times. Super fun

@@NorbergNation thank you a lot again, and the next time I’m in the kart I’m gonna try out the drills I can to improve on myself
most tracks are 15 min sessions

Great video, helpful tips and I will try those. Thank you Ryan
Nice! Thanks for watching
Thank you Ryan. love your content !
Great video!
Your content is epic man!! Really helpful!
Thanks so much!
Great video. Wish I had time to practice with setup changes. To really understand the dynamics.
It’s super important to do that
Thanks a lot for the tips!
Thanks for watching!
Thanks Ryan!!👍🏽

I'd like to know how to push on the guy in front of you or force him/her to make a mistake so I can make a passing. Greetings from Argentina 🇦🇷
You just need to be there every lap. If you push them on the straight they’ll know you’re there. No need to drive dirty. Drivers will crack under pressure. Thanks for watching!
Do you have any tips to learn a new track fast?
Doing a video on that soon
@Daniel Ali yes! I’m going to do a track walk video soon
Going to get my own kart soon. What would your tips be to be able to get as much practice time as possible for as cheap as possible? Also how much do you think one would have to drive to catch up to the guys who have been driving since they are 8 if you are 15?
I’m not sure how to make it cheaper, but catching up is different for every driver. Practice makes you a better driver so practice a lot
@@NorbergNation My question was rather stupid but thanks for answering it. Really enjoy your content so hope you will drop some more videos soon :)

role model !! 😎
Thank you!
Are we talking about rental karting or proper karting? I learned that you need to let the rear tyres bite into a turn
What's a good drill if you can only practice at local karting track I'm gonna race sodi rental kart series vid is 3 yrs old hopefully your still available 😢

Your advice helps, but I still have a long way to go
Definitely need to work on warming up your tires more. That will help those opening laps
@@NorbergNation Thanks for the tip!
how do you use the heel bars to set the kart in cornering
Thank u
for tip 1 should you still drive 1 handed on a really grippy track with lots of bumps?
yes. It will be more difficult but it does help when training. Maybe only de a lap or so at a time
how do you "make the tire as wide as possible by loading it in a turn?"
hey ryan i got a question when i brake hard i oversteer so what i do is countersteer is the okay or should i avoid it
You should avoid doing that. You might be braking too hard and causing a lockup
@@NorbergNation Thank you
Did you see the TH-cam vid this person made your helmet on their computer it’s so cool
His channel is Daniel fellows
Yes I saw! Super cool!
"drive one handed"
vintage f100 drivers laughing in the background
Are you going to be at stars
No I’ll be testing at GoPro Motorplex
@@NorbergNation nice
On th-cam.com/video/gl1xG6Gpv-U/w-d-xo.html , why do your both hands push?
The 25% arrow is supposed to be the other direction
Make Norberg nation merch
I’m trying 😂😂
