Yep bristol is slippy at the best of times but if you go there when its a really cold day -omg! It’s a lot better in the summer months though.
But as with any track the locals will know the tips and tricks to go fast there.
One tip- the bottom fast right hander, lift off the throttle before the apex and coast all the way around until you’re on the exit.
Yeah that corner was my nemesis haha
Going to the hairpin you have to go wide then go tight and when you at the top you have to go wide at tight in really quick this makes more spread and can get to the 30s
I've only been karting once and it was at this track. I was on about 2 hours of sleep and so was lacking my usual awareness.
I was tired enough to not have noticed that we were meant to be coming in to the pits, until I was doing full speed down the ramp, preparing to swing it round the big right-hander. I realised this at the very last moment and dove in to pit entry, slamming the brakes enough to somehow avoid hitting the martial.
I was lucky that the track was empty except for the 3 people I'd gone along with, otherwise I'd have probably rear-ended someone .
Overall a very fun track though, with an enjoyably challenging first half. Also great video!
Yeah definatly need your wits about you for the downstairs section
My local! :D Public sessions on this ice rink are always an experience! It takes quite a while to get decent pace on this one, I am still struggling, but it has made my throttle control much better thanks to the low grip!
We've all drifted into that barrier at turn 1, the trick there is ALL of the grip is inside, so you can stick to the middle of the track as you approach it, and turn in early, and the kart just magically grips, if you get it right, if you don't then you're gonna be testing how good your rib protectors are. 😅
The corner at the bottom of the ramp is an enigma, it changes every time you go 🤣 feels great when it goes well though!
Yeah I flicked the kart in too hard on turn 1 that time round haha but just kept my foot in it haha was a decent track though
@@LearnToRace yeah, it bites when you get it wrong, but is fun to go drifting!!
Do you prefer team sport or absolute karting in Bristol?
Hello I’m 14 and have been today here and I found there’s loads of grip at the top of ramp on the corner and I went in kart number ten and got 36.789 and I wanted to tell u that if you wanna maximise speed use all the track up and go from wide to inside when karting ❤
Best camera and great light. Trail brake past nbr 10 would work, but you still pass him. I did Nottigham and now plan Liverpool.
I’ve been doing the Bristol track for a long time now because it’s my home track. I would like TeamSport to make the down stairs track to be layered with wood to give it more grip
Ay been here twice i think, had a grand day out both times
Good work, try a few different lines, some lift and coast will help too. I know that opposite lock thing too well, first race of the year in the final stint it rained, opposite lock every lap on one particular corner, Coming out of a right corner turning left heading towards the dirt and trying to get the the next right corner, it wakes you up.
I was trying a few different lines, although probably not by choice 😂 yeah I've only done one wet race and it was a handful and mentally tiring but it was enjoyable once I got the hang of it
I find it fascinating how different every TeamSport track is, not just in length and layout but driving dynamics 😂 As a Warrington racer where we're blessed with grip I wouldn't know what to do here!
Yeah that's what I love about doing all these tracks no 2 are the same
Warrington is far too rough to be enjoyable. If you like a long track Sheffield is much better
@@billybigballs196 You said, and I quote, "Love Warrington track so much, nothing compares to the shear brutality of it" 🤨
@@JGKarting I said that before I went to Sheffield International track. Warrington is a good layout but far too bumpy
My local track here too, managed to get my PB of 37.3 last week which I'm super happy with!
Glad you enjoyed the track though, it's a difficult one to master 😂
You're telling me haha I'm blessed with Leicester and cov as my home tracks so all the grip in the world
@@LearnToRace I’ve never been to a track with grip, must be so nice! 😭
if you want to set lap times you really need to go at night. Last week went at 10pm and managed to best my pb by 0.7s with a 38.5. Having a clear track and getting into a rhythm is the only way to get faster times in my experience.
That's my old home track!
It is a bit slippery on public sessions, members sessions are about 2/3 seconds quicker... The grip isn't where you expect it, so people new to the track tend to struggle. The long right has all the grip on the inside, not where you expect it. The fast left is also super grippy if you lift the throttle, turn it in to the apex, then nail it. Get it wrong and you end up in the barrier though.
Looked like you were turning in very late for the hairpin before the ramp as well and running wide where there is no grip, that'll lose you a second a lap easy.
If you'd been out with a regular you'd have seen all that and been loads faster! It's a fun little track though. If you don't like slippery I'd avoid Reading! Downstairs there makes Bristol seem like you're driving on glue, it's insane.
Yeah I was braking into that hairpin to go a little deeper to straighten out the exit, I know for definate I've got more time in me, but as it was just a first time I was happy with what I got, apart that damn last corner haha
Yeah Bristol is a city, population of about 700,000, two football teams and one is Bristol City FC.
Went there today for a friends birthday put in 39.593 so that’s my PB at the moment gotta get down there bit more 👍🏻😂
For another community race you could find a track none of us has done so it’s a completely open race - that would make it interesting!
That would be good, could be tricky though to find a track 16 people have never done, maybe we should go do the new German track
@@LearnToRace well that would be good!
Warrington I’ve always wanted to do tho.
@@matthewodeykarting3146 I think that's most likely gonna be the next track I do 1 at
Great video, just wondering that when your driving a kart and you want to turn into a corner is it best to rotate your kart into the corner or let off a bit and turn in normally
It depends on the corner and the grip really but trial and error is your friend aswell
@@LearnToRace Thanks, every wondered coming to Birmingham again one day?
@@BuddyClubP1 oh yeah I'll be back for sure
I went yesterday for first time after 10 years of last time I drove a kart XD Just ocasionally, with friends. I did a 40.825. Nice for first time but I know where is at least 1-2 seconds, but time goes so fast in the 15 min sesions XD The first one was a nightmare, lot of yellow flags and 2 red flags, the second was much better, but just when I started to feel ready to push more in some corners I saw the checked flag :(
I want mooooreeeeeee!!! XD
Hey you came down to Bristol! (I would have come up and met you) I'm doing Nottingham end of this week so as to get slippery practice for my home track Bristol. Monday night social nights you'll get into the 37's as your normally high in the finishing order.
Yeah I can rarely do midweek sessions cause of my job
@@LearnToRace I have gone made, ha ha ha. Booked into the Prem inn Nottingham and visiting the track Friday, Saturday, Sunday smash and bash public, then Monday for the Monday night social.
@@LearnToRace Just took some meerkat insurance for the trip, £5.99 ha ha ha, includes karting and travel. Get half price movies now for a year, ha ha ha.
🤣
@@chrislove5884 jeez that's commitment haha
You should come to TeamSport Stockton. My fastest lap is 39.544. Is a quick fun track. Lots of overtake opportunities
I'll be doing more new tracks through the year, my plan is to get to all of them
Reminds me of a more slippy Leicester
I don't find Leicester too slippery tbh then again it is my local so I know it quite well
If you’re every looking to have some fun at Cardiff, let me know 👍
Is the camera attached to the top of your helmet?
No I have a chin mount so is just under my visor
yo man, love the video (dropped a sub) also have you ever been to reading tesmsport?
Thank you dude, nah I haven't been there yet, but watch this space I will be heading down one day
@@LearnToRace yeah it'd my home track it's really good I would recommend it.
5:37 is mental lmao, literally steering completely the other way and karts doing opposite
Yeah full drift mode engaged haha
Go to teamsport Eastleigh it is very slippery
Yeah, Bradford is the same
First one to watch 😎
Great video to get to know the track before going 😎
im better than all of you
You probably are 😂
@@LearnToRace LMAO actually i just wanna get into karting professionally or seriously bc not to brag or be arrogant like i was in the original comment but i just have a natural ability and I guess talent with the wheel and im pretty young. Ive beaten a lot of adults before at their own game and wanted to get into it for real but never gaven the proper chance. Any advice or tips that you have and ur vid was nice btw
@@fuckincold tbh mate I wouldn't know, I'm wayy too old to be getting into karting professionally lol you've just got to get out there, get in a few championships, get yourself noticed
