The fastest lap is around 60s, I just recently got to 64, but still lost as to where im losing time. The lap starts around 10seconds into the video. The track is TRACK and yea, any advice/help would be greatly appreciated. Also idk how relavent it is but I am 118kg (I am cutting rn).
What would someone being doing to their motor if their motor all appeared stock appearing, cam, valve springs 18# and stock appearing carburetor. What are they actually doing to still make it stock appearing but clearly pulling from the field.
Hello all. I’ve a 16 year-old interested in organized-competitive kart racing. We’re in Jacksonville, FL. Does anyone know how we might get him started?
I wasn't going to post anything until I had the protoboards next month... But fuck it, the only thing holding me back now is delivery of the boards and FCC testing
I need to pull the trigger on the final board design today to stay on schedule for q1 2027 and I'm not sure about the LEDs
Now's your chance to say something.... Anything...
How many LEDs are too many? I've already done some real world testing with the smaller LEDs and they are more than easy enough to see on a bright summer day in florida, while being more energy efficient than the larger ones used in some of the loggers today
After a bunch of playing around.... I really like this setup I've come up with using the side LEDs as the status indicators
Diy version available here: (tachometer, but no temps, much smaller screen) https://github.com/TheAngryRaven/DovesDataLogger
Almost 3 years in development by a 20+ year veteran in software, this isn't a "vibecoded" project. Its been tested ontrack, for a few hundred hours, by about 10 different people, and a small race organization in Switzerland. 90% + test coverage and blah blah blah
4in screen, 25hz GPS, 50hz tachometer, all the usual stuff
Price? TBD : a LOT more affordable than current offerings, I need the final board in my hand before declaring a price
Current estimated battery life: 40 hours

Hi all,
New to Karting and soon to be the proud owner of a second hand Briggs kart.
As I’m new to the sport (however long time Motorsport follower), and I’m looking for any and all recommendations from tools, set up changes to experiment with (in the limited Briggs scope), trailer/basic pit setups, on site spares, maintenance procedures, etc.
So any help in anything karting is appreciated. I also have one of the local kart stores helping me with finding a secondhand kart (which is pretty cool) so I’m happy in the purchasing space but want some advice once I get the kart home.
In addition to the above the reason for this thread is for must have tools. Tyre changer/bead breaker, kart table, battery tyre pump and your usual set of crescents etc.
I don’t know what I don’t know so else/other wisdom would you recommend.
Thanks in advance!
Hey, everyone. I own a omp gpr-k and I've always wanted a helmet spoiler on it but unfortunately the options for the exact helmet and customization is pretty low and does not have it's own fitting one. Despite knowing this, I still looked on Google for some where it told me essentially that there is no specified spoiler for omp gpr series, however you could possibly use an arai (ck6/sk6/....) spoiler with a bit of modification to make it fit to my helmet. Google also told me to heat it up with a hairdryer on high mode, but still I'm unsure if it's going to fit or not. Regardless, I ended up ordering the arai spoiler anyway and when it arrives I am going to fit to fit it on. But I don't want it to be a waste of money if I fail, so does anyone have any tips on how to possibly modify it to fit to my omp gpr-k helmet??
New to karts just bought one and im trying to identify what kart i have i can't seem to find any placards on in to help identify it. All I know so far is that its an international frame from the measurements on the frame 3 5/8. Im trying to put a ghost motor on it and I ordered a international mount from bmi but my axel doesn't have the key way on the inboard side. Can someone help or guide me. Rear axel is 30mm x 42 or 43 inches long
I want to film my races and training sessions, I'm looking for a more POV-ish camera angle
I was thinking of the Rayban meta gen2, but I also think about the Osmo Action 4 and the ace pro 2
Yes I already have a camera, but the shitty ones that the battery life is about 10 minutes and doesn't have the stabilization thing
The battery life doesn't need to be something absurd.
One and a half hours would do just fine.
I don't have the highest of budgets. I would say about 4000 Brazilian reais max (about 800 dollars, but there's lots of taxes so it would be something like 400 in the US)
It depends on the camera, but if it is going on the outside of the helmet I need it to have some wind protection so I can hear other things that aren't the wind.
