> [@boardjnky4](#): > > my slip is in the car, i was at a 25.3 just faster then you jim, if I remember correctly, it was like .06 seconds off? yea, was something like that, so maybe 25.4 just to make it easier. I know that i was not going as fast as I could so whenever I go back i’ll make sure to save the time :tup: place was really fun, but pretty cold, I shoulda worn some gloves lol ---

I know there isn’t too much relation to gokarts and real track but I like to get the feel for running lines and see how I can improve lap times by making small changes in my runs. That I think will be beneficial to me. ---

That I think will be beneficial to me. i think if anything it will be detrimental… while learning how to take lines sure helps, the dynamics of a go kart is completely whacked. You try to power through a turn and you just stop dead because the rear tires bounce and grip harder than the wheels accelerating can pull you. also i really didn’t like that you can’t left foot brake (the karts shut the accel completely when you touch the brakes). left foot braking would have helped a lot i think… ---

> [@cky89](#): > > I agree completely. I helps cure the winter fix as well. yea, thats why i liked it… i almost felt the rush autocross gives, but i think only because i can’t currently autocross. its fun regardless, but in the end it ratio of expense to enjoyment is probably worse than the ratio for real cars. it’s good for every once and a while though ---

> No one over 200 lbs has broken 25 seconds… 24.7 here, several times in different karts. And im around 225 (+) … gotta get off the ESP diet 😉 And I’m of the belief, especially there, that the lighter you are the faster your potential is. Anything you loose in the high speed turn (if weight helps you at all there), you gain in exit acceleration everywhere else. ---
