Tillotson T4 review: studio.ua-cam.com/users/videoqgX6PFzoPDc/edit
This is the best video about the karting world I've seen ! Thanks for putting together such a beautiful and honest summary!
Those videos must be made by true karting enthusiasts.
I've just started going to Buckmore park for arrive and drive sessions, looking to get my own kart in a year or so. Atm my budget is about £300 a month for practicing (so about 3-4 hours a month) and then from October will be participating in rental kart grand prixs (looking at sharing with a teammate or two, so it basically costs the same as practice per hour).
Hopefully, I'll be good enough that when I get my own kart, I can take of it and not mess it up with beginner mistakes :D plus it helps that my dad has been a car engineer for 40 years - FREE MAINTENANCE!
This is an amazingly well done video. First of all thank you so much for the info. This year im racing a 2018 Mercury R for the first time for the first time in hopes to get to formula one when im older. Currently im 14 and trying to do this. your channel is an insperation. thank you
its nice that you make these videos, back when i was racing noone told you anything or if they did you had to pay BIG.
Every time i watch your videos it reminds me how much i love this sport
fr
so many people love this kind of real mind karting racing vides!
TOP video!!
Hi Red.
I have Kalì with a Rotax SenMax like your's and saw your video a couple of days ago when you went testing by yourself without a mechanic.
I too would like to be able to do that but I am too afraid to ruin the setup, chassis etc even though I know some things from seeing my team's mechanic work on the kart.
Do you have any advice for me to be able to be more independent from your team in regards to testing or any videos you watched with this same purpose?
Kind Regards Red, keep up the great videos. I hope you make more vids about your race weekends, I enjoy them a lot.
Just try. You don’t want to know how many times I have made setup mistakes or did something that made me go slower
Just try, try, try. Just make sure you know the stock setup well and are able to fall back to it
@@RedExions thanks for the advice Red, i'll definetly try and change my karts setup. Sometimes I feel like im throwing money away to train because I need to have a mechanic. And I would prefer to be much more independent.
Thank you once again for your answer and I wish the best of luck in the future for you!
Have any advice for briggs and Stratton lo206 4 cycle motors? I am in canada and want to start karting soon. Any info about general karting information in north America would be much appreciated!
Sitting here for 72 minutes 💪
How
@@DeepDiveDiscussion1 by sitting on my phone for 72 minutes???
Hey man im just starting out, as you can see from my profile picture im in rental karting right now (k1 speed).
Just wanted to know whats next from rental karting? Do i join a karting club or?
Try asserballe go kart in Denmark rally good and komplikatet track
Hey red, great video! I want to get started in karting to learn and have fun. I am 30 but i want to open the door for my son later on! My goal is just to learn driving, setup and the mechanical side so i can be my sons crew chief later. Do you have any tips on what class of kart i should buy for myself? Also what age would you suggest i start getting my son some seat time ? Thanks in advance !
In your case go for a Senior Rotax Max kart.
Get an OTK chassis from 2020 or newer and an EVO engine
Just try and have fun, you will learn a lot by just doing it and trying a bunch of stuff.
Get him behind the wheel as young as possible
@@RedExions thanks for the tips !
How long do engines last
8:10 Ik mis in dit stukje mijn geweldige inhaalactie in Kerpen
Die was zo goed dat de video gerapporteerd zou worden voor porno
i saw a dude with carbon fibre rims is this not allowed or something because i dont see it anywhere else
How much does it roughly cost to join a team, and how much does it cost to go solo?
You can make both as expensive or cheap as you want. But let's say solo: 20-100k per year. Team: 35-100k
oh man its like so much information i need a kart for a school im going to and with all the diffrent motors and shi i dont know what to do bruh
Easy:
Have 2000 or less to spend per year? Rentals
Have 10,000 or less to spend per year? T4
Have 100,000 or less to spend per year? Rotax
@@RedExions good point the problem is i need a race kart for its called “efterskole” in danish and I have thought about buying the LN 2023 kz kart with the motor but idk if it’s good or anyone recommend the motor in it bc I don’t have the biggest budget I have like 4000 a year maybe but I appreciate it :)
@@CosmicoprRacer If you get 4000 USD as a budget,we happen to have some nice cars that could satisfy your requirement well,would you like to have a look?
Red plz Race with Kart Republic again
Quick question what do you think the new cylinder on a senior is much quicker or roughly the same?
at the moment the old is still faster ( if u have a good modified one ) but midseason we think the new will be faster
@slinpozz7171 thx I've seen people saying it gives you about 1-2more hp and people say it does nothing and is a way for rotax to take more money from us
yep it´s true that it gives more horsepower, especially in corner exits it´s pretty fast but it is not faster than the old cylinder. and more hp is not faster every time. in terms of maximum straightline speed the old one is definetly faster. our engine tuner confirmed that also. so at the moment the old one is for 100 percent faster. probably arount midseason the new one will be faster but that is also not sure in terms of tuning how this will handle. no one is sure about this. and i would recommend you, if you want to buy one, talk with an engine tuner or wait till midseason, bc around midseason it is sure if they are faster or not. and it is not worth it buying one at the moment.
hope i could help you :)@@improvingpig77yt56
I really want to start racing and hopefully get to the formulas and I'm a female 13 year old do you have any advice for that
My son is 13 and wants to start karting. These are the options that I found. 1. Start "rental" karting at an indoor track , many have a racing academy which will teach you the basics and run championship events so you can get experience. 2. Find an outdoor karting track, many have karting race clubs attached to them. You can get outdoor experience using rental karts (faster than indoor karts). Go to the club races at the track (not the rental races) and talk to people in the paddock about karting clubs and "how to get started"
@@andrewbell3476 ok I will try to do that
So what about BHP in T4? 13-15 or more?
The current spec makes 17bhp
@@RedExions Nice! So it's less expensive than Rotax? Easier to fix and so on?
do you have any tips for me as a iame x30 driver who does not have a big buget
switch to rotax
@@RedExions isen't rotax more expensive?
@@samuel_klrnRotax engines are much more reliable than Iame
@@RedExionsreal
@@samuel_klrnno rotax is more budget friendly
What do you recommend to do to convince your parents for fanancial backing. (Less that 16y old)
Show them that you are serious abd that it is more than just a hobby. Also show them that you are willing to give up things like junk food, alcohol, partying etc.
@@RedExionsThank but, bro I’m less than 16 (not telling my real age) what you mean alcohol . And any other ways?
@@TheSimRacingHub. You could do yard work, cut lawns, wash cars and earn some money to show you are also serious :) My son also wants to start racing and this would show me he was serious. All the best
@@andrewbell3476 ah yes cutting lawns in the middle of a city without (barley) any gardens
@@TheSimRacingHub. - hey just trying to give you some suggestions, since you appear to have none of your own :)
Is there an age where its too late to go from karting to "higher"racing
Never. As long as you can afford it, you can drive whatever you want
What shall I do if my budget is lower than 6k a year?
With a budget like that it's hard to race even in Rotax (the cheapest category where I also race). I recommend you race in Rental Karting and "invest" in a lot of practice and doing a lot of races. You can also put forward a dossier with your racing records to send to companies and attract sponsors.
Racing in 2 stroke karting is hard with as a new kart is probably around 7-8k. 4 stroke, apart from rental, I have no idea about.
I would recommend a rental karting championship, by budget is 1.5K-3K depending on how much i earn. I just started karting, so I don’t know a lot about it. But at least in my country (the Netherlands) we have formula karting, where you have different levels/classes, if you had 6K a year i would recommend the normal championship and endurance championship (you do need a teammate for endurance). This would cost €1300 for a full season of the normal championship and €2700 per team in endurance racing. This doesn’t include travel, food and if you need it a hotel.
Do what the other two comments said or consider racing in Tillotson. Try to get some sponsorships too, it’s not impossible to get 1-2k if you do it right
waarom ga je niet een keer x30 rijden
2:49 only 2 race weekends? 😅
2 race weekends is usually when karts lose their “fine edge”. Top drivers usually replace it to keep up the maximum pace, but there is also lots of drivers who run it for longer
@@RedExions would cost 50k?
This kart has more cc then my bike 😂 100 more 😢
im better
