I initially thought karting was get on a track, and pedal to the metal. Lol there's much more to it. Kind of stressful

It's really critical since the laps are so short. A tenth of a second is literally a lifetime on the track.

You need to come down to Driven. Amazing people own/work that facility. I promise you will not be disappointed

Goddamn you got some good ass times.

I ran a 32.6 sec today. Second time karting, shit is hellla fun!! Haha

 

[goofygamer]

Driven is at Fairfield. Lol how was the track?

 

[XjoEnX]

Yes how was it. Sorry I couldn't make it.

 

[dopematic]

It was great!! All good! Haha I think you'll always have a great time there regardless haha

This is my first time Ive been there since they changed completely to K1 electric karts though. I still liked it better with gas but still fun.

 

[OGstackadoIIa]

We should set something up for Driven soon!!
How did Dai Lon do?

Saw the thread and am interested in any advice to drop my lap times at Fairfield Driven. Had a blast today with our friends and kids. Not happy with a plateau in lap times. I am able to run 15.7. Last run felt smooth but was 0.3s slower. What do I need to drop into the low 15's??

It's hard to say without watching you race. How many times have you raced so far? The thing about time attack is it's about putting together one good lap. The most critical turn is the turn coming down to the pit area, it needs to be taken very precisely to make sure you don't slide too much and lose your momentum. I come in wide so I can go straight while braking, that allows me to keep my momentum. I also lean a lot to maintain grip, but that's something to focus on after you get the racing line down. Let me know when you plan on going next, I'll see if I can make it out to coach you
