    @DemolitionMotorsports 5 років тому +23

    To me, the fastest kart I'd ever driven was the KZ-2 (also known as Intercontinental-C) at Mayak circuit near Moscow, Russia. However, that was just for testing, since its driver was sick. Still, that was a real kick, especially when you shift up and hit the gas. The most balanced kart, as I think, was a KF-3 class kart based on a Birel chassis, that I had to drive during 2010 Copa del Campiones in Spain. That thing was unreliable as hell, I had a literal engine meltdown and a major malfunction in clutch, but still, this machine had a lot of grip, a nice acceleration, and it was as maneuverable as a fifth generation jetfighter.
    But still, these Sodi and Honda-based rental machines are quite nice, too. They can get your body and mind ready, if you want to participate in professional championships.

  • @chrisaoun6091
    @chrisaoun6091 6 років тому +219

    Not the type to be negative, but this video did zero justice to a 2 stroke kart. You barely brought the Rotax up to revs. They looked like they were travelling at the same speed & acceleration. Could have picked a better day to do this.

    Matty, come do some Club100 or something like that. A full season is a good chunk under £3500, the karts are a good bit faster than Steve the Sodi, and the level of driver is good as well. Plus when you run out of talent and break the kart, you just hand it back and get another one instead. Winner winner!

If I get a wheel and Sim racer will that be good enough because if my parents get a raise I might have good Christmas. I would think that would be better than constantly spending money on karting since you only have to pay once. Please answer someone, I honestly don’t know

    390cc and 12bhp is quite a weak tune in contrast to the Rotax 125cc with 28bhp. It is for certain that the 390cc is heavily restricted for safety reasons.
    If it is possible to tune and upgrade any restrictive parts that rental cart's 390cc engine has (bring it to between 30-35bhp), along with shedding some of that excess weight from the rear bumpers it may actually be a suitable rival to the typical 125cc race kart while remaining quite reliable.

    • @abcdefgh-db1to
      @abcdefgh-db1to 5 років тому

      Also the 125cc engine is a 2 strokes and revs at 11500 rpm whereas the 390cc is 4 strokes and revs at 3600rpm so it's kinda normal the 125cc engine produces more power

    WTF1, well you did ask: I was at Warden Law track with my trials bike, on the hills sections, I was the only rider there and there was one guy on the track with a rotax cart (dunno any more specifics than that). He was bored, I was bored, so we swapped steeds. The cart was 'kin bonkers and it didn't appreciate my clumsy inputs from my trials boots, I couldn't flex my ankle (racing drivers' excuses) so the acceleration and braking were a bit staccato. I didn't spin off but there was a flat spot on the tyres when I handed it back, the owner was furious...but he'd flipped my bike and snapped the rear mudguard so we came out evens? Great day, this video brought it all back, thanks.
