Yeah, might want to figure out that whole 'clutch' thing before you go racing.

I watched the exact thing unfold beside me in a novice race many Moons ago. It was quite amusing.

the racer is taking a good natured beating on another forum.
rolling up to pole last, trying to make a statement or at least roll up like a rockstar racer with all the attention that goes with it has it's downside whoops my starts are just slow and boggy leaving it in second gear will do that ![]()

I've run that track in a kart. It can be intimidating in a couple of places depending on clockwise or CC. I didn't like CC too much.
I was looking for that turn out before the back straight going clockwise. I couldn't recognize it. Still have the tire mark on my retired kart from the guy that parked in that turn. (Meaning he checked up so much that I clobbered him from behind and flew over his head leaving MY tire mark on his helmet.) |
