Welcome to my channel where I will be uploading my progress from a complete karting novice to hopefully competing in some top level Arrive & Drive competition such as Club100, and maybe beyond....
My first experience of karting was 4th of July 2020, the day lockdown was lifted for motorsports in the UK. Come along with me on my journey of learning the skills required to (hopefully) get good at karting! I am also a complete novice to video recording and creating, there will certainly be mistakes both on the track and in editing, but hopefully you will enjoy following me on this journey and hopefully I can entertain you if not impress you.
Feel free to comment with advice, racing or editing, but remember to be nice to each other!

My very first time in a 2-stroke kart, my assessment test for Club100 to make sure I am up to scratch to drive in the Club100 Experience Novice class for 2023. It was a trip up to Shenington, a track I've never driven at before, to give these karts a go for the first time. Shout out to Club100 & JV, it was such an awesomely ran event & JV was super helpful & welcoming! I can't wait for the seas...

Nice job sam your defence was top notch, I am gonna get my footage out in the next couple days too but had fun racing you 👍
Cheers man! You drove excellently, it's just so hard to find a way through at Combe. I'm looking forward to seeing it from your side! Was great to race you, I look forward to next time!
Great job mate, on a roll at the moment! 🔥
Cheers man!! Yeah, managing to put in some decent performances to start this year, mindset and confidence playing a massive part! Hopefully I can carry it on for the rest of the year! 💪
Well done Sam 🎉👏🏻👏🏻 proud of you 🎉
Thanks 😁
Well done maté obviously being a bmw driver has already helped to drive where you want 😉seriously great job again at Combe Sam 👌🏆🏁👊🏻
Haha, now I'm just an arrogant prick that assumes I can do what I want, so I did 😛 Cheers, now I've just gotta do it elsewhere! 😅
@@CrazySkindogKarting 🤣🤣absolutely sir 👊🏻
🤣🤣🤣 we'll see how Brighton goes!
Great vid mate, are you racing in Club 100 again this year?
Cheers man!! No Club100 this year, too expensive 😅
@@CrazySkindogKarting Ahh yeah that’s what stopped me in the end which is a shame I love karting. I’ll have to look into SRK! Was good to meet you at Lydd that time!
@@123wilba123 Yeah it is a shame!! Was fun, I might do some more in the future if funds allow. That would be awesome, get on it! SRK is great fun!
Unlucky mate that red flag restart putting you at the back was ridiculous. Still you got a half decent overall as lots also had poor results, in the end wasn't too bad
Cheers! Yeah, it felt bad, but isn't actually a bad result & I actually thought I had missed my final when I saw the drivers heading out for the C final! So I can't be too disappointed
@@CrazySkindogKarting haha that would have been funny 🤣
@@TheJelf10 i legit crapped myself 😅

Nice race man, good luck for the rest of the season!

It was lovely battling you in the b final 👊(i was the guy behind btw), we go again in Brighton 👊👊
Cheers man! It was a great battle, you drove excellently & congrats on the SRK2 victory! See you at brighton
Cheers bro, see you at Brighton
Who's that weirdo waving his hands around in your intro..? 🙃 In all seriousness, solid result Sam, 3rd Heat was a lot of fun! 😅
I know, what a plonker! I nearly pointed you out, but you'd finished your recording by the time I went to do it. XD Cheers man, it feel weird to be disappointed with 16th, but there was so much potential for a better result, I can't wait for the more open tracks! Well done to you as well! I'll be checking your video out in a bit. It was a fun one, cheers for opening the door for me a couple of times :P
@@CrazySkindogKarting Have to be speedy recording the vlogs, it's a hectic day! 🤣 It's weird because I felt the same way, so close but so far... As long as you can be consistent throughout the year, I think you will be on for a flier! 🔥 You are very welcome too, always room for that in the rounds to come too 😉
🫣🥲sorry again pal I was just the middle man 🙄😫
Haha, all good man, people at the back of the field just need to be aware they need to brake earlier! 😅 see how I manage not to make any contact at all in the 2 starts where I started from 8th? 🤣
NOTED ON THE BREAKING 🙄I’ve also ordered some talent off Amazon should be here by Brighton 🙏🤪👊🏻

Amazing stuff ! Well done dude !
Thanks man! appreciate it!
Great win man, was great racing with you!
Cheers! Appreciate it! Same to you, see you at more round this year!
Well done on the win Sam, that was a good watch. 👍 Wish it had been that dry in the morning.
Cheers!! I really appreciate you watching. Yeah, it looked really tricky in the morning!! Cheers for drying out the track for us!
Now you've got something to post about 🤣
🤣🤣🤣 haha, yep!! Much easier when it goes well! 😉😛
Well done Sam 🎉so very proud of you 🎉🎉
Thanks
nice vid great driving crazy to see how much the track improved form when jnrs where on track😅
Cheers!! Yeah, it really dried up a lot compared to the juniors in the morning!! Can't say the same for the driving standards though 🤣 lots of incidents in the other heats!
@@CrazySkindogKarting yeh although atleast for juniors it feels like the driving standard has gone up since last year
Congrats on winning 🎉. Shame your camera didn't record the first heat but other than that, great video
Cheers!! Yeah, I really need to get some new batteries, I think mine are a bit old now. Had over 60% battery when I started recording that heat, and it died after 55 seconds. Was a real shame as well as I had a great battle with Sam Slater in that one, includes ng a nice switchback overtake into turn 1
@@CrazySkindogKarting what camera are you currently using?
@@Oskar.M GoPro hero 8 black. Had it since it was the latest model, so the batteries are about 3 years old, they really don't like colder days. Probably get some of the endurance batteries soon
Great driving for a great result
Cheers man!! That start of heat 2 was insane 😅
Congratulations 🎉
Cheers!
Brilliant mate beat a top class field 👌🏆
Thanks man!! Appreciate it! Now I've just gotta do it again next month 😅

Ahh man, just one of those days to forget! What a great circuit though. See you at Rye House 👍🏻
Yeah, just one to chalk up to "experience" 😜 I still had a blast and every minute driving these karts is a joy! It's just hard to not be disappointed by the results when things don't go your way. One round this year I will not spin! 😅 That's the biggest thing for me currently, small errors on the brakes causing big problems. Catch you at Rye House! 😁
Great video mate and nice to meet you! On the reserve list for the next round so keeping fingers crossed I get a call! What software do you use to for your editing dude?
@@123wilba123 cheers man! Appreciate both the kind words, and the company on the day! Fingers crossed for you mate! I use DaVinci resolve for video editing, the software is free, and amazing, I don't even scratch the surface of all the amazing features!
Hi mate, great vid! I’m at Lydd on Sunday too for my first Club 100 experience so will see you on the track 😊
Cheers man! I had such a blast! I'm sure you're gonna love it! It's an insane experience. Feel free to give me a shout if you see me, I don't know anyone else on the grid too well yet!
@@CrazySkindogKarting Yeah for sure I’ll keep an eye out for you mate! Just a quick one RE GoPro - Does it just need to go on the clip on the front of the cart or do I need to tether it at all? Cheers, Will
@@123wilba123 cool, see you there! Yeah, there is a standard GoPro mount on the front of the kart, they have a tether on them to loop over your mount, they are a little loose though, so I need to work out how to pack it out, maybe a little piece of cloth or something like that
@@CrazySkindogKarting legend, thanks for that mate and see you Sunday!
@@123wilba123 no worries. I hope you have a great time! See you Sunday
how much does it cost...roughly?
The Club100 experience is just over £220 per round. It's not cheap to enter, but it is worth every penny if you can afford it. The karts are impressive, the organisation and marshalling are top class and I've not had anywhere near as much fun in any other arrive and drive karting events!
Kart 9 was a spanner that day so well done! Welcome to the SRK1 club 🔥🔥🔥
Yeah, it was a bit of a dog 😅 I was really happy to take that P4 in the first heat in it. Thanks man!! I'm still buzzing! 😁
Not sure if you've mentioned you got promoted? 😂😅 Well done again! ✊🏻✊🏻
Haha, I thought I forgot to mention something!! 🤦 Cheers man! 😁
You signalled P1 through and then closed the door... What did you expect? You didn't lift off on the straight, so if you're waving him through he's going to think that you're letting him through at the hairpin. Surely you spoke to him after the race about this? From this POV it's your fault all day!
It's so long a go I can barely remember it 🤷 😂 I didn't "close the door" on him, I was on the inside, waved him past, I didn't power out of the corner like I normally would, and got better drive than him still, so then I waved a "you missed your chance" before turn in, and how would I let him through at the hairpin when I was on the inside!? 😅 Also, it was the last lap, with no overtaking opportunities left, if he was smarter he would have just stayed behind, blocked any overtake from behind and cruised to victory. 🤷 I know the guy who ended up winning and we discussed it, he agreed it was a rash attempt from the leader, the other guy didn't seem interested in talking to me after, so I didn't force it. There was nothing said by the race director or marshals to me as a result of the incident, so I can only assume it was a racing incident.
@@CrazySkindogKarting Are we talking about different situations? You were on the racing line going into a right-hand hairpin, after waving someone on the inside through. That's case set and match really if said person then careers into you. I think the moral of the story here is to be clear and predictable, as obviously both you and I and even the leader, are confused about what was going on there. Like you said, it was the end of the race and he was fairly far behind, so why even bother with hand gestures and the like? You should only really point/wave someone through when they're alongside or you're not at racing speed. Of course the eventual winner would say that... He was the beneficiary! Racing incident yes, that's probably fair, this is the kind of thing that happens in a D final.
When I say hairpin, I'm talking about the final corner, which isn't actually a hairpin I suppose, my mistake!
@@henrycarter6765 i think we are talking about the same situation, but it was a long time ago now 😅 I only waved him through as I was shown a blue flag if I remember correctly, I vaguely remember thinking he wasn't close enough for blue flags, but I may be getting mixed up 😅 I agree, clear and predictable would be ideal, it was one of those races where it started wet and dried throughout, and was a bit hectic all round, I'll admit I was frustrated by the contact earlier in the race as well, so that almost certainly clouded my decision making at the end of the race. Clint is a great race director, so if I'd have done anything completely wrong then he would have had a discussion with me. Myself and Clint did have a pretty through discussion via messages after the event and he didn't say anything about this incident. It's unfortunate for the leader, but I think is a lesson for both me and him that blue flags don't always = slow driver, and that when you know it's the last lap and you can defend against the guy behind easily, just stay calm and don't go for anything too rash. Cheers for your comments and sorry if I was a bit confrontational in my first reply, feeling like I'm getting a bit of a negative response on this video recently 😅 put me on the defensive. I hope you enjoyed the video and we get to race some day!
I m really sorry to hear you had a bad experience, but you had many moments where you just blocked me like i was not there things wich you havent comented, you were very slow in that t 4 that s why i was confused for few laps, you were missing your braking points and i was just trying to overtake u, and carfull not to to bump, that s not nice from me but the bumps were very smooth, wet track, sorry for that, i just had to understand your driving wich was quite defensive and blocking at all the time, hope u can understand! No hard feelings , was my first time driving on wet!
The entry to T4 had to be slow, due to the wet conditions, I wasn't slow there, I was driving to the conditions. You were using me as your brakes, contact into a corner is never "smooth", it is forcing another driver off line for your own advantage, it is underhanded driving, lack of experience in the wet and therefore sliding is not an excuse, adjust to the conditions. I had to drive defensively to counter your contact heavy approach, I always commentate my footage as I see it, I don't leave details out to make myself seem better, or free from blame, at no point did I force you off the track or cut you up, I stuck to a defensive racing line, if you are not at least 50% alongside (which would make you visible in the footage) then you haven't earned the right to space, and the track at Brighton weaves a lot but the racing line stays straight, particularly from turn 2 down to turn 4, it is a straight racing line, but the track is not straight, if you are not alongside, but attempt to stick your nose in either the left after the finish line, or the right as you go over the hill before T4, you are always going to run out of room because the track curves towards the racing line, it is not for me to move aside to give you space if you aren't alongside, it is for you to get alongside earlier. Your driving standards genuinely ruined this event for me, the fact you were rewarded for these poor standards just rubbed salt into the wounds, I can only hope that you genuinely look at your conduct in this race and were disappointed enough in it to improve, especially in low grip situations, contact should always be avoided and is never justifiable with "but it was wet". Drive better
@@CrazySkindogKarting ok i understand your are one of them who just coments what he really wants , never his mistakes! Anyways! Good luck
@@IonutCosmo clearly you haven't watched any of my other videos where I admit when I'm in the wrong. Karting is non-contact, you made excessive contact and have admitted you were inexperienced in the wet, yet you try to lecture me saying my driving was poor? If you haven't driven in the wet before this race, how can you claim to know that my lines, or braking points were wrong? Your driving standards were poor, you ruined my race, and my enjoyment of the day, yet you can't seem to see anything wrong with your conduct. I hope that if we race on track together again we can have a clean, fun battle, as we all do this for fun. I'm not interested in arguing over a race that was months and months ago, so enjoy your day
@@CrazySkindogKarting you’re the first complaining that s why i m confused, cuz you kind of exagerate a bit commenting your video, i have watched your videos, and thats why i m like hold on, he does more contact than me 😅like i said my first ever race on wet and i never used u to brake! You were not confident enough to get that t4 faster that s why we lost so much time , cuz you were defending to much! When you could have followed me to get at the front , we lost so much time fighting for so many laps! Anyway you’re a good driver ! Well done!
@@IonutCosmo you think I exaggerated, I don't, that's opinions. 🤷 You claim I make more contact than you, yet I've never had a driver moan that my contact is excessive, I make every effort to avoid contact, especially going into a corner, which is where you made your contact, corner entry is critical, and any slight tap can unsettle the kart, especially in wet conditions. I was fully confident in my line in T4, I was taking the wet line to maximise my exit speed, you mistaking that as being slow just shows your inexperience in wet conditions, I had to defend heavily because you were using contact as your main weapon, the only way I could.combat that is to drive super defensive so that even if you nudge me I don't go wildly off line. Ultimately you ruined my event, you don't think your driving was out of line, I do. It's a difference of opinion and I do this for fun, not to argue on the internet. Let's chalk it up to a difference of opinion and both get in with enjoying our days, and our karting. If we race again I have no hard feelings and I hope for a clean, fun battle.
Hey amazing results over the weekend! Thank you so much for some clean racing, really enjoyed racing you 😊 Looking forward to some good battles with you now bring an SRK1 driver 😂
Tha is so much! You were smashing it as well. I really enjoyed our battle, that final was one of my most enjoyable races I can remember! Here's to many more clean battles for the rest of the season!! Haha, spoilers! 😛🤣🤣 It's gonna be fun, I'm sure!
Very cool Sam, looking better on camera every video you do.

Nice video mate! Bad luck with the spin. Was that the novice class you was racing in?
Thanks man!! Yeah, Novice Heavyweight class. There was a real mix of experience as you would expect in the novice class.
@@CrazySkindogKarting it’s look like a lot of fun. Ive just come across your videos and realised you do SRK. I will introduce myself next week 👍🏼
@@tomclarkekarting4085 it was so much fun! The best fun I've had in a go kart for sure! I thought the name rang a bell! Yeah, come say hi for sure. It's gonna be a long day 😅
Great action, so unlucky, almost like someone's put a hex on you😜
Haha, you been cursing me? 🤣 I was hoping I would get caught up in less incidents this year, seems that isn't gonna be the case 😅
An unlucky day for the whole team we all showed good pace just unlucky throughout it all lets move onto the next round and push forward
Definitely!! Hopefully next round goes better! We are still leading the SRK2 teams championship though! 😁
Your reactions are so funny 🤣
Haha, I channeled my inner Seb on that one 😉
Unlucky results there mate, was some very rough racing out there - keep your head up and bounce back at the next one 🔥
Yeah, it was frustrating for sure, it doesn't help that Hereford is a lot harder to overtake at than it appears it should be!
It's quite funny watching your vlog and you saying if you're not halfway the move will never pay off 🙈🙈 😂😂😂 Haven't watched it all yet. Looking forward to the best part later on when I get home 😅😅😅
Haha, yeah, I cringed at myself editing that part knowing what comes later 😅 I fear I'll be cringing even more when you watch the full thing 😭 I hope I haven't said anything out of line, I don't think I said anything too bad, but I was pretty frustrated by that part of the day, and didn't know it was you I was racing against, so the putro vlog is a very grumpy me 🤦😅
@@CrazySkindogKarting haha it wasn't too bad 🙈 I was looking around alot (which I've tried to cut down and focus forward more) but didn't feel I was being super defensive just trying to be aware. I threw my hand up being frustrated with myself as I kept making stupid mistakes and I thought I threw that position away. I knew I was sliding but didn't quite realise that much!
@@TheJelf10 looking around is the hardest habit to cut out, but it makes such a difference once you focus forwards. You've gotta have a look every now and again, but it definitely slows you up when you focus on the kart behind so much. You had pace over Wade in front early on, then as we battled he obviously got away. Lots of drivers were sliding all over the place all day, it was a weird one. I'm glad you don't think it was too bad and hopefully you still enjoyed the video, I'll see you at the next round and hopefully we'll have some more good battles over the season without me ruining them 😅
Can totally understand your frustration during that whole event!! Heat 1 you were so unlucky! Was definitely a bit of a send from the guy behind! Heat 2 I do think you were kinda the architect of your own downfall by having a bit of a slide! I don’t think the driver had anywhere to go but into you! The third heat and the final I could definitely tell that your head kinda went! Although it looked like you didn’t have a great kart in the final! Great video again usual pal!! I’m sure you’ll do much better in the next one! 👌
Cheers man! Heat 1 was just so frustrating, I've been good recently at putting it to one side and driving better the rest of the day, this day I just couldn't seem to shake it and it definitely affected my driving for the rest of the day. The karts felt so slidey all round and the rear end is so heavy on them, a lot of people were struggling. Kart parity was also a bit all over the place, so that didn't help, my kart just wouldn't accelerate out of the corners in the final, which meant I couldn't make any moves on Jeff in front! I appreciate the comments and the support man! It means a lot and I'm already refocusing on my mental resilience to not drop into that frustration again.
Nice stuff Sam, great video! Shame about the little spin at the beginning, what could've been... 😅
Cheers man!! I know, I dared to dream of a podium before the race! 😅 The recovery drive was fun though, and at least I know I have the pace to compete for the rest of the season.
Great video Sam! Was cool watching you plough through the pack, real shame about the spin though man. You definitely had the pace to to in the top lot for sure. Lots to be learnt here but what a great experience!!
Cheers man!! I'd have loved to be able to battle it out at the front, but it was hella fun making places up through the pack!
Great video mate some lovely overtakes in that race
Cheers man!! I felt really good making those moves into Paddock! It was satisfying to have good pace!
Nice one Sam. Those karts look great fun. Fantastic P2 qualifying. Shame about pinching the brake but gave you some good overtaking 👍🏻
Cheers!! These karts are insane, I am still smiling at how much fun they are to drive!!! 😁 Yeah, it's all learning though isn't it!! It's the point if the championship this year after all!
Nice race, shame about lap 1 but love your attitude of learning and improving! :)
Cheers man! I appreciate the kind words. I had no idea where I'd be in the pecking order, so went in thinking 15th or higher would be satisfying, so to qualify 2nd and get so many overtakes still felt like a great achievement even. With the mistake.
Well done Sam, great video, enjoyed watching it. 👍
Cheers! I appreciate it!
Enjoyed that. Shame about lap one but great recovery, some good overtakes and lots of experience gained. Looking forward to race 2.
Cheers!! I really appreciate it. Yeah, it was such a small, but very costly mistake. Race 2 has plenty of action as well! I can't wait for round 2!
Glad you enjoyed it mate!! Little tip in terms of recording, if you set the pedals at the furthest position you can see your feet inputs on the footage! (If its comfortable for you of course!) Class video as usual! ☺
Cheers man! Appreciate it! I did have the pedals as far forward as I could, I think I had my camera pointing a bit too far towards the sky to catch my feet. 😅
