Wow, that was incredible! I've always liked those racing carts. Like little F1 cars, they are so fast and nimble. But I have never seen a cart race from a POV camera. Amazing. Thanks for posting this! I'm a former bicycle racer (was in the sport 25+ years). Not quite the same, of course, but I really got into the drafting and cutting the apex of the curves, etc, in your race.

That was very nice, brought back memories. Some of those aero karts are fast on the straights, but turning not so much, or the drivers were throwing the anchors way early. Great racing from you 2.
I was the red laydown kart in the vid.... The situp guys were 125 shifters Mine is a single geared 125cc This is one of my favorite races! Even though we were in different classes...
I raced karts back in the mid 60s. We were running dual MC 20s burning nitromenthane and really thought they were something. Little did we know what lay in the future! Amazing!
Hey Boatman if you would please tell me more. I recently stumbled upon an old kart frame and chassis unlike any shifter carts I see on you tube. It has a big gas tank on the side and is designed to run two belt driven motors on both sides in the back. I have no idea what kind of motors to use or where to find them. I'm assuming twin two stroke centrifugal clutch motors. Can you point me in a direction? Thank you
got into carting around then, Unlimited classes were running two mac 20s seemed superfast. My first shifter race made me look at karts totally different. They were going 120mph down the straights. I really like the 100cc gt karts now, easy and fast.
My older brother began racing a Mac 5 when he was 10 years old back in 1958. He won every race it seems and his room was jammed pack with trophies. He stopped racing when he was about 15. I was five years younger, so never got the chance, but there were no minimum weights to meet (and he only weighed about 70-105 pounds over that 6 year period) and he raced with adults. Women raced in a separate class called the Powder Puff class.
I'm the red laydown 8 (actually 181) I was not sliding, tires weren't worn... When Steve and Sean caught me, I started taking wider exits to allow them the line due to them having faster acceleration from shifting.... Mine isn't a shifter kart only a single gear
Great video. I raced 200 cc stock laydown back in the early 80s. I'd be dicing like hell with my class, and then the 270 shifters would lap us. Sometimes I didn't even hear their harmonics because they approached so fast. Ahhhh the memories. Thanks Sean.
OK, Im sorry again...…. First of all, your runs from The Keyhole thru The Kink and into CB are beyond fun to watch, great drafting and late breaking and of course passing, just great stuff. Im guessing that race had multiple waves and classes. Please, can you tell me what the little red goblin was at 12:35?????
Glen Piro yeah so that is exactly what it looks like, a laydown kart. That refers more to the chassis than the engine. I do not know what engine this specific one had
@@seanpyles7430 around 14:00 why were you moving your legs up? Aero or to get some blood flowing to those hard working footwork? Anyhow here in Texas it's hard to find these karting places so I'll stick to motocross.
Sorry for the noob question, "Stock Honda", is that referring to a production class type kart chassis/motor combination? What size mills are those, Im guessing 125cc? . Ive raced at Mid Ohio before on two wheels, now that Im older Im contemplating karts because I really miss racing. You looked like you were having a blast man, well done!
Glen I would highly recommend getting into racing in a Shifter Kart. Stock Honda refers to the engine. This one was a 2001 stock 125cc Honda motor. It is specified as stock in the class name because they are moderately modifiable. If you are to run a modded Honda engine, it is usually run in the more generic shifter class
Seems like youre kart built for much cornering speed but suffers a lot on straight away, but good balance thou. Great driving skills and a lot of balls for late braking. Kudos dude.
Outstanding video. I raced karts for years back in the late '80s and '90s. Brought back some great memories. I wish I had Go-Pro evidence, all I have is some ridiculously poor quality VHS footage. I would like to know more about the organization you run with and what's hot in chassis these days.
Sounds like me. I raced at the same time you did. I raced on mainly dirt. Mainly ovals and one dirt road course (what a blast!). But, I too wish i could have had this go pro footage too. I am sure when you raced we raced with open wheels. I wish we had the more enclosed karts they have now. My neck wouldn't hurt as bad on rainy days lol!!
It is bumpier than it looks folks! I raced on dirt but, this looks as bumpy or bumpier than what I did! I was always very sore the day after races. I am assuming it is the same for you?
There were 3 classes in this race.. I'm the red laydown with a non shifter 125cc (single speed) Winner - 1:35.8 - stock honda 2nd - 1:36.2. - stock honda Me - 1:36.0

Hallelujah for the Go Pro. Nice job, and good racing. I’m 13 again, Begging Dad to let me race. I wanted to add, are those layback machines a new thing? Looks like a gas to drive.
Amazing driving your patient in you passes at the same time aggressive you are shredding it. I roughly know how much it would cost to run/maintain a shifter kart. Where my knowledge stops is there though. how do you get to drive on circuits like this and dunno if u can say how much membership or league costs, entry of race etc? Pm me the details if you want. I used to race motocross professionally knees are shot. Alteasdy have a flat kart but this this the ultimate goal since the adrenaline you get is def close to a 30min moto with your heart rate close to 200 bpm on a shifter kart. And dude you can f’n drive you got talent.
Wait. You guys are running stock Honda’s and smoking the super karts (250cc) everywhere except the straights? I’ve never raced this track and not as familiar with the super karts, but they running same tires? Why are they so slow in corners, chicanes and sweepers? Cool to see a little bump drafting. Was wondering at the beginning if you’d be helping each other out 👍. And what is going on with the superkarts. The peripheral awareness seems NON exist and some of the lines they take are really really odd? Tires? Totally different set up? Poor drivers?
Higt Mance Thats what I thought. So Driver ability? I imagine there is several superkarts that finished much further ahead but we just don’t see those?
Look at 15:40 that is a superkart... I'm the red laydown (not a superkart) and its a non shifter (single speed) Also being aware that we were running together, I started taking wider lines exiting corners (when I could) to give them room since shifters accelerate much faster than me and we were in 2 different classes... I'm not going to interfere with their battle, but im also not going to stop racing The 3 of us were running near identical times.... 1:35.8, 1:36.0, 1:36.2
What is the black object laying in the track at the start of Thunder Valley by the bridge? Why didn't the track workers remove it? That was a very smooth draft and then pass at 8:15.
@@seanpyles7430 Thanks. That was a great race. Miss being in the car. I was racing FF1600, F-Continental and F-Mazdas in the SCCA. Those karts looks like a lot of fun.
So cool seeing the difference between the stock 125’s and the 250 superkarts!! Small track, the superkarts dont stand a chance!!! Is it the way the aero works on the superkarts that makes them slow in the low speed corners?
Hello Sean, Having raced with WKA & Woodbridge for 15 years in Enduros. i have been to Mid Ohio before & as many classes it would seem your viewers don;t understand the fact you not racing the 250s or the Enduros just the guys in your class. You did a fine job out there & i am surprised to see you dispatch many of the 250s . With 125ccs you should outrun the Enduros with the KT100s. Nice racing & though i got out of the sport in 2007 i had plenty of great times especially at Summit Point. Both clubs are not doing as well as they should but by the comments perhaps it's best they just watch as many seem quite clueless as to seperate classes & the fact your running well over 100 MPH & not 40 as one guy seemed to think. Don't like stepping on toes but it sure helps to understand what your watching. Best of luck in the future & if you don't already know Summit Point has been completely resurfaced from the ground up & the lap times are dropping like flies. The record there in a sports racer is now 1;006 . The Kart record is by Andy Kiker who you may know ,he turned 1;10. The few times i've been to Mid Ohio were fantastic except one race was in the rain & not so much fun. Thanks for sharing your helmet cam vid.
Sean Pyles they gotta be running super rich as well. Or maybe metallurgy has advanced since 1993??? I know i couldnt keep a kx125 pinned like they do. The top of the piston would melt by the exhaust port scar the cylinder and stick a ring every time.
The real challenge is to find a money to buy all those things. Find a local track a see what kind of classes of races they have there and maybe ask someone there for an advice what to buy. Anyway good luck man, hope I can start my racing career soon too.
Had a kx125cc Frankenstein shifter when I was a kid my dad and uncle fabricated outa dirt bikes and quads I rode to death we didn’t have many tracks to choose from wish we had one like this it has nice running lines Ida been Screaming Around this track that cart was Insane fast If u see a shifter cart Absolutely do not Underestimate that Machine we was running 70-90 mph in back in the 80z right on chains and sprockets 🎉😂❤ Bro Showing skillset nice clean running no bumping or banging Clean Race ❤🎉
You guys had a good race. But damn. I'm glad I don't race anymore. Too many wankers these days. Especially those slow as piss Superkarts. And the dude in the red laydown couldn't drive worth a shit either. Use to run Enduro's back in the late sixty's and seventies. I remember when we had 110 entries in one class, American Reed Lite at the IKF Enduro Grand Nationals at IRP. We use to have 5 enduro races a year just at IRP back then. The heydays of karting are long gone. Too expensive for the average joe nowadays. Money and greed has put a lot of different types of racing out of reach for most people. I knew karting was in trouble when we were at Grattan a long time ago. Joey Hand shows up with a full semi trailer rig with "one" go kart in it. I knew then that money was going ruin karting.
it seems Hamilton got - more Top on his kart. - He is not so good in traffic - He seems more consistent, due to good motor? you seem to carry more speed in corners. skill? good compound?
I took a 3 day Skip Barber Racing School at M-O years ago in Formula Fords. It was a blast. We worked up to 120 on the back straight, We spent about 60% of the time on the track. This video brought it all back to me. This is some great driving!
Not sure I'd be any good at this sort of of thing, but I sure would be competitive. And the black cart makes this look like the original PS1 GT racing game. lol
Sean Pyles Was just asking because I remember once I kept drafting behind the leader at a recreational karting track and I noticed that I was able to maintain a consistent gap I was behind him for so long that the exhaust soot built up on my face because I had to open my helmet for ventilation Someday I hope to get into actual motorsports- Every time I get behind the wheel of a kart I feel like it’s natural

Win or lose, that looks a helluva lot of fun. Squirelly little buggers though...
That is what I'm talking about to dude hell far I think it would be fun to do it
@Waylon Tristian i have obama chungus toy
A rear facing go pro would be an awesome view. Great video.
Eric Nelson I agree
That wouldnt really work bc what if someone bumps him from behind
@@HenryDillard18 Might work OK if placed slightly inboard facing back.
@@TubeBrowser2 Yeah
No dirty chopping, blocking or swerving. Just good, hard, clean racing. Well done.
In the video it looks fun. But i guess it's also terrifying.
Simon T not even a little terrifying. You get used to the speed. A racing driver must be calm and collected if he is to be fast.
@@seanpyles7430 Makes sense.
@@seanpyles7430 you sound like such a badass
@@hollycheater858 Well thanks! Curious though, why do you say that?
Why am I turning my iPad left and right watching this video? This is far better enjoyable race that I ve watched than real Indy or nascar race
@greg sheppard you mean nascrap
Sean this is Damon from Team Extreme! That was some the best road racing I’ve seen in a long time! Great job!
That was very nice, brought back memories. Some of those aero karts are fast on the straights, but turning not so much, or the drivers were throwing the anchors way early. Great racing from you 2.
believe it or not theyre faster than cars in the slower corners
I was the red laydown kart in the vid....
The situp guys were 125 shifters
Mine is a single geared 125cc
This is one of my favorite races! Even though we were in different classes...
brandon schenkel how much do your guys karts cost?? Including yours and the shifter karts
About 10k

Anybody remember the Mac 101AA from the 70's.... Had one with dual carbs and gearbox driven instead of chain.
Me too , raced in the 80s&90s what a difference in today's karts.
My older brother began racing a Mac 5 when he was 10 years old back in 1958. He won every race it seems and his room was jammed pack with trophies. He stopped racing when he was about 15.

Very cool reminds me of my kart racing days in 125cc shifter with my Tm and Birel CQ 32 and my Tag leopard arrow
My God that was brilliant to watch. Like i was driving there myself!!!!! That number 8 cart was annoying just kept coming.
That #8 was a faster kart on the top end but the driver was afraid of the corners 🤷♂️
Sinister Sparky well his tires were worn and you can see that he kept sliding out every time he pushed it around a turn.
I'm the red laydown 8 (actually 181)
I was not sliding, tires weren't worn...
When Steve and Sean caught me, I started taking wider exits to allow them the line due to them having faster acceleration from shifting....
Mine isn't a shifter kart only a single gear
Far from being scared of corners....
2 completely different setups....
But the 3 of us were all running near identical lap times
That looks like a blast. It would be something to drive Mid-Ohio (pricing karts)
Great video. I raced 200 cc stock laydown back in the early 80s. I'd be dicing like hell with my class, and then the 270 shifters would lap us. Sometimes I didn't even hear their harmonics because they approached so fast. Ahhhh the memories. Thanks Sean.
Ex motorcycle roadracer here. Kudos, good job, looked like great fun. Always wanted to try that. K1 Speed doesn’t cut it ;-)
😂😂😂
Don't think I could fit on one of those now, but all I can say is "YEE HAA"!!!
Where are the bananas?
In your tail pipe 😂
Point, Set and Match, Mr. Martinez...
They were disabled for this race
Love you out running those superkarts

I'm (red laydown) running a parilla x30 125cc (non shifter) and was running the unlimited class
I can't really describe that as anything other than, "badass".

Karts are awesome but with age comes a cage. I’m running it7 RX7 in SCCA.
Bro was keeping up with superkarts, what kinda what?😂
Good racing . Looked like you had a ton of fun
It doesn't even look dangerous! I'm getting one....tomorrow....I love it.....
Try jumping out of your car at 125mph. It doesnt look dangerous because you are travelling at the same speed of the car. But that ROAD...OUCH!
Seems like youre kart built for much cornering speed but suffers a lot on straight away, but good balance thou. Great driving skills and a lot of balls for late braking. Kudos dude.

@13:45 it makes sense. lol Sprinters can't out run road racers, not motor for motor on a track that size they can't. It's a multi-class race.
what a cool video. one of the best in car vid,s i,ve ever seen. amazing driving too.
3:19 I know he shit his pants
Great stuff mate! you and the #8 looked like you had a bang up of a time with each other. Who knew the "KeyHole" was down hill... NOT ME!
It is bumpier than it looks folks! I raced on dirt but, this looks as bumpy or bumpier than what I did! I was always very sore the day after races. I am assuming it is the same for you?
Like it's not dicey enough, they have way slower (at least in corners), full body carts out there with them. Nuts.
There were 3 classes in this race..

Something I never understood until I started racing competitively is to learn to how to be able to watch a race.
what aditional inputs have u done to the transmission to withstand clutchless shifts?
Hold your IPAD up close and watch...you’ll want to try to steer😎

I wanna buy one and join you guys! Great video bro!
Was für eine geile Strecke... 👍
No 450cc 4 strokes, huh?

William Hendrix that’s right😎
I'm a simple man, when I see a Sean Pyles video I smash that like button and watch

You should definitely remove your number asap
Wow I've never seen someone put a phone number on UA-cam. Lol.
I wonder how much that would this day's?
Serious question. How in the hell do these guys keep from burning up the top end of these engines running them flat out so long???
ckryegrass11 some people rebuild them as often as every 20 hours
Sean Pyles they gotta be running super rich as well. Or maybe metallurgy has advanced since 1993??? I know i couldnt keep a kx125 pinned like they do. The top of the piston would melt by the exhaust port scar the cylinder and stick a ring every time.
Like most 2 strokes it won't really hurt them while they are under load
Was this an inverted start?

@@seanpyles7430 Even better!
Thanks i love this place
I want to race go karts so bad I’m want to start a Indy career but i dont know we’re to find the equipment and karts
The real challenge is to find a money to buy all those things. Find a local track a see what kind of classes of races they have there and maybe ask someone there for an advice what to buy. Anyway good luck man, hope I can start my racing career soon too.
Had a kx125cc Frankenstein shifter when I was a kid my dad and uncle fabricated outa dirt bikes and quads I rode to death we didn’t have many tracks to choose from wish we had one like this it has nice running lines Ida been Screaming Around this track that cart was Insane fast If u see a shifter cart Absolutely do not Underestimate that Machine we was running 70-90 mph in back in the 80z right on chains and sprockets 🎉😂❤ Bro Showing skillset nice clean running no bumping or banging Clean Race ❤🎉
Those enduros where smoking man
You guys had a good race. But damn. I'm glad I don't race anymore. Too many wankers these days. Especially those slow as piss Superkarts. And the dude in the red laydown couldn't drive worth a shit either. Use to run Enduro's back in the late sixty's and seventies. I remember when we had 110 entries in one class, American Reed Lite at the IKF Enduro Grand Nationals at IRP. We use to have 5 enduro races a year just at IRP back then. The heydays of karting are long gone. Too expensive for the average joe nowadays. Money and greed has put a lot of different types of racing out of reach for most people. I knew karting was in trouble when we were at Grattan a long time ago. Joey Hand shows up with a full semi trailer rig with "one" go kart in it. I knew then that money was going ruin karting.
Great driving. Love those winged shifters... all the money and NONE of the skills. Hahahaha
Haven't driven Mid-Ohio in a car sine 2017. Pavement is looking a bit rough.
Bartley Mollohan no way! It is glass smooth. There is only one bump on the whole track.
@@seanpyles7430 Cool, good to hear
Hey Sean how much does a cart like yours cost?
Like mine, used, about $8000
To go a buck 10 down the straightaway!!!! SWEET!!!!
Sweet
Monetize this video, man!
Now i got to save up for one!
Where in ohio is the located?
it seems Hamilton got
- more Top on his kart.
- He is not so good in traffic
- He seems more consistent, due to good motor?
you seem to carry more speed in corners.
skill? good compound?
Veyron640 mostly different driving style. But yeah he has top
Nice footage.
The track is a bit boring, though...
For karting it's not really interesting.
Foot on the gas 80% of the time
The KPI on that kart is horrible. Perhaps the extremely short wheelbase accounts for some of it.
Smoooooooth
I took a 3 day Skip Barber Racing School at M-O years ago in Formula Fords. It was a blast. We worked up to 120 on the back straight, We spent about 60% of the time on the track. This video brought it all back to me. This is some great driving!
Not sure I'd be any good at this sort of of thing, but I sure would be competitive.
And the black cart makes this look like the original PS1 GT racing game. lol
Looks so damn fun!!
Nice clean racing. That’s what I personally like as opposed to sprints.
Well done to you both
Nice race.
Does slipstreaming work with go karts?
Creeperboy099 yes road courses like this drafting plays a huge part
Sean Pyles Was just asking because I remember once I kept drafting behind the leader at a recreational karting track and I noticed that I was able to maintain a consistent gap
I was behind him for so long that the exhaust soot built up on my face because I had to open my helmet for ventilation
Someday I hope to get into actual motorsports- Every time I get behind the wheel of a kart I feel like it’s natural
Wat the speed on this
Ben Stenger On this track I was able to clock 110 mph
itsabig Actually the gearing was pretty spot on. There’s no class for Kawasaki soooo...
Excellent!
how did your engine not blew up at such revs ina long straights? what jets are you using ?
今のカートって変速ミッションつんでるんだ。フロントアクスル回りも昔と全然違う。進化したんだねぇ。
Everyone out there missing apexes left and right
What kind of lap time on the carts?
Look on the wheel display.
Winner 1:35.8 -shifter
2nd (camera) 1:36.2 -shifter
Red laydown 1:36.0 - non shifter
3:10 what kind of kart is that?
Eduardo Luis Cislaghi this is the class of Kart called a super kart it has a 250cc engine
@@seanpyles7430 wow awesome! Thanks!
Post were we can get one
In my town they use motorcyle engines on a go kart...i dunno why
Pesanti da guidare, immagino , senza un minimo di cupolino a 140 150 orari
