Went to full throttle raceway in august for my sons 16th birthday, got so track was fast. Think I got a low 22, my main aim was making sure I did a faster lap than a load of teenagers 🤣
@@johnnunn8688 Of all possible EV choices at that time, Nissan Leaf was neither the most beautiful nor the one with the best battery longevity (limitations of thermal management). Also the Chademo plug and the relatively high energy consumption are not exactly on the plus side of EV features. On the plus side: Replacement batteries are relatively cheap and the car is solid.
I bet 80 year old Alan could beat Lee 🤣 Only joking, Lee's a big lad and it makes so much difference in a cart. Thats a great little track, I went there on a stag do a few years back and did a full grand prix style event really great day.
Thank's very much Geoff for this video. You and Lee have so much fun together! (It looks like tho..) Please continue your both good work!! 🙂🙂I'm look forward to every video you and Lee comes out with every day! 🙂
Really enjoyed this video Geoff good bit of driving there from you both. I'll have to get down there and see how I stand up lol. Loved the Funhouse-esc music too haha
Another Fine vlog from you and Lee, you guys really work together well, helping each other while not stepping on each others toes, Its a partnership not a competition. Love it!!!
That looked like great fun. Lovely you both.. and good on Lee being up for it too. He gave it a good whirl. I'd love to go karting some day too. I'd probably be in the Lee category.. mind you, I could be in the Geoff one too.. depends I suppose.. Main thing is the Fun of it though!
Lee just needed a better line to keep his speed up. I dont think hes really a racing guy but he made a pretty huge improvement, just shy of a 2 second improvement is damn good.
Come over and visit Geoff. Lee will have a blast here. We have had a ruff couple of weather events but beautiful day in Brisbane Australia today. Thanks for the video
Good evening GEOFF it's so nice of you and LEE having a track race. In Stourbridge my home town 👍 by the way is the race track on mill race lane just after the ring road?
Karting is a lot of fun, but it can be dangerous in more ways than you could imagine. I was at the local race track here in Capetown many years ago and they've got a fantastic kart track there too, I was leaning up against a wall scoffing a burger one afternoon when a chap blew his engine on track and the gudgeon pin from the engine smacked the wall just above my head with such energy that it took a chunk out of a brick, just a couple of inches lower and I probably wouldn't have known anything about it.
Geoff you need to read the viz comic great British self-drive electric vehicle race off - it might explain how Lee failed to get to Lands End (but it runs in reverse to your route)
Nice close cuts on that line, and handling of that nasty transition from the upper deck to the lower deck. That corner looks really nasty to maintain good control and traction on as it is quite steep. But please! More motoring with Lee / MacMaster, win or lose they are great videos!
Those guys with the 125cc and 250cc go karts , they Fly ! And turn on a dime ! Better than Formula 1 , and you hit the wall going slower , which is a huge Bonus
I went go-karting. What a disaster. I’m absolutely crap at it. I went there on my motorcycle and had to wear my own crash-helmet - none of theirs fitted. It was raining. I went off the track into some hay-bales. One of them shot straight up in the air. On the way down, it hit my crash-helmet and smashed the visor. I had to attempt to tape it up for my ride home. Never again! 😂😂
Prety cool track, seems very similar to one used on Tom Bailey's USA drag n drive event... Have a rematch to see the better driver by adding weight to Geoffs to have them equal all up weight.. Chuckle.... 🤔😄👍🇬🇧
What Geoff says: “A few laps edited to show us both on the track.” What we see: A few laps edited to show aaaall of Geoff’s overtakes. 😂🤣😆 What do you think? 😂
I have 2 gold helmets from karting, your forearms really feel it after karting. It’s great fun isn’t it. All jokes aside I do possess 2 gold winner trophy’s from Team sport that was near us, was because it burnt down 😂
Gotta say it Geoff not stealing your thunder a bit ,, BUT !! Macmaster weighs a Tonne and your tiny so kart will be quicker.. Your a natural racer i can see that from Donnington etc but in these toy karts size and weight is important..
Lee was commentating throughout all his laps and I believe he deserves a second or 2, deducted from his best lap. His concentration wouldn't have been 100%, to be fair.
I miss these days when people just posted videos of themselves just having fun.
Lee "Driving Miss Daisy" McMaster 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lee Drove more then Daisy see how long this one lasts 😅
awh go on. he made a good effort. it's the fun part of it!
Geoff bringing the Black Country accent to the world. Good man!
Lee is always going to be behind you Geoff... and I say that before even seeing the video 😁
👀👀 It's a great fun to watch you guys. Thanks.🙃👍
Went to full throttle raceway in august for my sons 16th birthday, got so track was fast. Think I got a low 22, my main aim was making sure I did a faster lap than a load of teenagers 🤣
Low 21 is very respectable!
I know the feeling mate, my only aim was to beat my kids on the day 😂😂😂
Go Karting is a fun but rather protracted way of finding out who is the lightest and who is the fattest person on the track
Geoff should have had 2 paving slabs on his lap 😅
Perfect warm up for a track😎 day
Fun 😁 fun
And great lap times Geoff and Lee
Fun video
Great journey to Aus Lee 🇬🇧
Lets be honest, Lee is more of a Nissan Leaf type of guy rather than a Porsche Taycan
Let's be even more honest. You're more of a Fully Charged Show subscriber, rather than a Geoff Buys Cars one.
😅
Are you saying Nissan Leaf owners are hopeless drivers?

That's an "interesting" racing line from Lee. Dude was so far off it, he was practically driving a completely different circuit.
🤣🤣😂😂🤣🤣
I bet 80 year old Alan could beat Lee 🤣 Only joking, Lee's a big lad and it makes so much difference in a cart. Thats a great little track, I went there on a stag do a few years back and did a full grand prix style event really great day.

At least Lee didn't have to worry about keep stopping to charge this time and virtually arrived at the same time as Geoff... lol
Great to see go cart tracks still open after the pathetic lockdowns parents this is a great way for your kids to learn to drive at a young age.
Lee beats himself, and not for the first time 😉
Really enjoyed this video Geoff good bit of driving there from you both. I'll have to get down there and see how I stand up lol. Loved the Funhouse-esc music too haha
Another Fine vlog from you and Lee, you guys really work together well, helping each other while not stepping on each others toes, Its a partnership not a competition. Love it!!!
Liked & Subscribed. Enjoyed meeting you both. 👍🏁
🏎️💨
I was there when they were recording. You can spot me at 5:28 on the right in the red Balaclava. Edit; also at 9:30
That looked like great fun. Lovely you both.. and good on Lee being up for it too. He gave it a good whirl.
I'd love to go karting some day too. I'd probably be in the Lee category.. mind you, I could be in the Geoff one too.. depends I suppose.. Main thing is the Fun of it though!
Love you two guys working together. Geoff you must be in an EV for a race so Lee can have a win. He won’t put up with losing. You are both winners.
Great stuff , might give it a go . I used to be ok back in the 1990s , .
Oh wow never thought I'd see my old boss Paul on TH-cam lol worked there as a race marshall when I was 18
Lee is twice the weight of Geoff lol and Geoff knows 90% of the track already, so i feel for Lee somewhat 😂
In Lee's defence he is full of Costa, batter and doughnuts and must be 3 stone heavier in the same Powered car lol
Looks like an awsome track!
great vid!
good fun!
Cracking little track,
Lee just needed a better line to keep his speed up. I dont think hes really a racing guy but he made a pretty huge improvement, just shy of a 2 second improvement is damn good.
Come over and visit Geoff. Lee will have a blast here. We have had a ruff couple of weather events but beautiful day in Brisbane Australia today. Thanks for the video
i'd love to but i can't afford it...! haha. 2 kids.
Should be a sweepstake on how many times Lee visits a toilet.
Looked great fun. Lee's flight is 16.5 hours, he must be mad !!
That was fun! Great video, Geoff. 🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️😊😊
I reckon you could have got Lee to go faster if you had told him, it wouldn't cost him 40 grand if he damaged the kart. 😂
Good to see you at Donington...it was a tad blowy, this time! I've never been go-karting...might have to give it a whirl 🤔
Actually, Lee drove in a very responsible manner. I find he gave off that same aura EV drivers have....LOL Just kidding Lee!!!!
This was fun! Cheers
This was fun😊gokarts are very fun to drive
it will hit the fan when the vangerlist see lee in a petrol motor
Great video Geoff and he drives a suppository a quick car = he must of been looking after his range 🤣🤣🤣
This is my local my track fastest was 23.8. I’m gonna have to down and “beat the you-tubers”. Excellent video Geoff mate.
Beating a telly tubbie is nothing to be proud of 😂😂😂 😈 what's the purple one called!!! O yes Lee 🤣🤣 jokeing funny video 👍
Good evening GEOFF it's so nice of you and LEE having a track race. In Stourbridge my home town 👍 by the way is the race track on mill race lane just after the ring road?
Cool 👍👍
Great fun guys.
Karting is a lot of fun, but it can be dangerous in more ways than you could imagine. I was at the local race track here in Capetown many years ago and they've got a fantastic kart track there too, I was leaning up against a wall scoffing a burger one afternoon when a chap blew his engine on track and the gudgeon pin from the engine smacked the wall just above my head with such energy that it took a chunk out of a brick, just a couple of inches lower and I probably wouldn't have known anything about it.
Loved the way you set off and tried to warm your tyres up like the do in F1 lol
A strategic wee on the track -
_it was a litre of vegetable oil really_
GEOFF I think that you should teach LEE. The YAM YAM Black county language 😂
Geoff you need to read the viz comic great British self-drive electric vehicle race off - it might explain how Lee failed to get to Lands End (but it runs in reverse to your route)
Nice close cuts on that line, and handling of that nasty transition from the upper deck to the lower deck.
That corner looks really nasty to maintain good control and traction on as it is quite steep.
But please! More motoring with Lee / MacMaster, win or lose they are great videos!
Geoff had the advantage of having driven the track before, so he knew Karting AND the track, while Lee didn't.
Hence he wins this one!
Those guys with the 125cc and 250cc go karts , they Fly ! And turn on a dime ! Better than Formula 1 , and you hit the wall going slower , which is a huge Bonus
Next time should be a handicapped race, Geoff carries extra weight to match Lee
Like a 1000 portions of fish n chips type weight?
@@peter_peter_pumpkin_eater 🤣🤣🤣
GOOD driving Geoff!!
thank you! Track day video coming next.
Guys that was cool,but how much heavier is the Macmaster than you. Because in those carts it will make a difference ?
Great fun!
Lovely description from the owner of ‘turn in’ wholly confused with understeer vs. oversteer 😢
Oooo, good skills. Bring yourself up towards hull and give it a go up here.
very sporting of you Geoff,
to do the dad thing
and let Lee win a challenge finally haha
That looked a lot of fun and for a change Lee didn't have to stop to charge! Any more challenges in the future? 😀
Obviously, Lee was preoccupied during the sessions, planning his charging stop near a fish n chip shop for his home journey in the milk float.
Now hes proved he drives like the local vicar I think we should name him Reverend Lee
I told you to keep the kart at FULL THROTTLE , and it worked 😂😂
I went go-karting. What a disaster. I’m absolutely crap at it. I went there on my motorcycle and had to wear my own crash-helmet - none of theirs fitted. It was raining. I went off the track into some hay-bales. One of them shot straight up in the air. On the way down, it hit my crash-helmet and smashed the visor. I had to attempt to tape it up for my ride home. Never again! 😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂🎉
@@GeoffBuysCars - my mates were pissing themselves at my immense ineptitude in the field of go-kart racing. I was off the track more than I was on it.
I reckon the MacClickbaiter would be happier driving an actual milk float.
what's phil mitchel doing running a go-kart track ?
FFS Geoff it's Karting not go karting, brilliant as always, next time your in Cornwall Karting challenge is on.
When will the Podcast be released with the Doc?
That track layout looks like it’d work better anti-clockwise 🤔, can’t really say why lol, just a feeling.
Geoff glad you both had a great day, how long before an update on how soon your times was beaten.
Absolutely karting in maidenhead has a similar track design as Stourbridge
Ayrton MacMaster just couldn't keep up.... just for a change 🤣🤣🤣
I thought u were faster than lee geoff it was a fair race brilliant track to go around on go karts
Prety cool track, seems very similar to one used on Tom Bailey's USA drag n drive event... Have a rematch to see the better driver by adding weight to Geoffs to have them equal all up weight.. Chuckle.... 🤔😄👍🇬🇧
What Geoff says:
“A few laps edited to show us both on the track.”
What we see:
A few laps edited to show aaaall of Geoff’s overtakes. 😂🤣😆
What do you think? 😂
100%. ha ha....!!
Proper fun that 👌
I got told off by several Karters at a race meeting for calling them Go Karts. Next contest: peeing up a wall.......
I think Lee was experiencing degenerative braking, and you Geoff are used to having no brakes.
Well to be honnest I was thinking to myself "if Macmaster win I effin eat my shoe". Yea that didnt happen did it? 😄
Get Alan down there. Probly wipe the effin floor with the effin pair of you young whippersnappers. Safe travels Lee.
Lee, go big or go home bud. Don't let that young whipper show you his bumper. Remember your pit maneuver. LOL
Geoff Drives Karts! 😂
What if Alan could have joined?!
I have 2 gold helmets from karting, your forearms really feel it after karting. It’s great fun isn’t it.
All jokes aside I do possess 2 gold winner trophy’s from Team sport that was near us, was because it burnt down 😂
Prima entertainment ! 👌🤠
Oh yes I am up for it.
At last Lee wane a challenge 👏 👏 😂
Gotta say it Geoff not stealing your thunder a bit ,, BUT !! Macmaster weighs a Tonne and your tiny so kart will be quicker.. Your a natural racer i can see that from Donnington etc but in these toy karts size and weight is important..
You’ve got the racing line, and there’s what Lee was doing😅how was your track day? Gutted they sold out when I tried to book!
Lee was commentating throughout all his laps and I believe he deserves a second or 2, deducted from his best lap. His concentration wouldn't have been 100%, to be fair.
Even in my 2 years retired broken ass body form, I have no doubt I can 🤣
Well done Lee. Ya boo Geoff 😝
Geoff has Lee dyed his hair ginger ?
Spain, 1984, 18 to30 getaway, Go-Kart, tree, hospital. What a prick.
Used to go here every year when I was a kid, set the lap record at 12 only to get beat by the owners son 😭 gutted
ICE vs EV... who's the real winner?? Who knows... too much fun was had!!😁😁
Not fair! Mac master is twice your weight.
Come to Adelaide Lee, I'll buy you a big breakfast 😊!
Have you seen the latest video by MGUY in Australia? He discusses another video about the slight EV lithium battery problems. Oh dear.
you are the Mario bros
Bet you found it hard to get yer head in that crash helmet the second run Geoff 😂
😂😂😂😂😂
