5 Tips to Get a Faster Lap Time

These are my 5 tips on things you can do to get a faster lap time. Racing for time vs. against other drivers is a different approach. This video is if you just want to get your fastest lap time.

Bonus - Also make sure you're comfortable in the kart. Don't get too far away or too close to the steering wheels or pedals.

[p.c.h.]

Relax, smooth in fast out, brake as late as possible, use the whole track, minimum steering, and so on 👍

Good tips. You might want to add that the shortest distance around the track is not usually the fastest. With rental karts, especially, the larger radius of the racing line allows you maintain speed better through the corners, even though it is a longer path. This way you don't have to wait for the kart to slowly accelerate out each corner; it's already going faster.

Hola, Solid advise, simple to the point, easy to follow, excellent vid work, adding visual "in kart" proof to the puddin'. Great instruction vid, could be used as a quick tutorial for newby rental clients. Pedal to the metal mi amigo

IA - just run into your channel while doing some background on UK’s budding F1 drivers. I’ve Sub’d & checked the choosing Karts vid as well as this 5 tips. Great content and well presented; very calm and concise.

Thanks, I "needed" this. It helps!

[hubzkarting]

Really good tips. Thanks for sharing amigo.

Some advice for driving a shifter kart would be appreciated!! not the basics, as you already have a video, but for driving corners etc.

[mediocre-motorcycle-modifi]

I've found you need to brake whilst turning to the kart to rotate.

[robinvsdk]

Question. Isnt it better to only let go of gas (and dont brake) and just steer more to stay on the track?

[vladvasiloni]

Most importantly, make sure that u heat up ur tyres. I've seen enough people going full speed on the outlap, ending up into the tyre barrier cause they understeered.

Yo alien make a video with tips for professional kart driving with more details

The only time jerking and some drifting is good is for hair pins as long as you don't bog up the tires depends on the surfaces and how fast your going

[simtherapy]

Bravo Bravo! Stunning I'm using these tips for IRacing! Do you do any online sim racing?

[shorty]

You gotta learn how to trail brake through a corner you can carry far more speed, sometimes it’s better to take a late apex to carry more speed

[Hapshaw]

I would also like to add that its a good idea to not eat taco bell before a race either.
