Avoiding One Of The Biggest Crashes I've Ever Seen!

Hope you're not too banged up! that looked... uncomfortable to say the least.

[@alexmikos2001]

Mate, the was a hell of an impact. Any crash you can walk away from, and all that. Kudos.

[@PoppaLung707]

Alex say you've never wrecked a kart without saying you never wrecked a kart lol even little K1 speed go karts can hurt you you. You're sitting on a frame with no suspension really with no seat cushion on a peice of hard plastic for a seat. I got rear ended in a race coming into the pits and it fucked me up and it wasn't even close to as bad as this

well, "race killer" sounds a lot worse than you wanted it to sound.

[@omg_atom]

I was the Class B leader and you were definitely quicker on pace. I found it such a difficult track to overtake cleanly on. You'll be on for a trophy at Lydd for sure with a clean race 💪

[@SoilentGr33n]

Great comment, the racing was awesome to watch!

[@JoeySells.]

seeing that person go flying out of his kart was really scary

[@TheStargov]

Really surprised these things don't have seatbelts. I know they aren't the fastest things in the world but I still expect them on anything with 4 wheels and a motor.

[@CNDLmusic]

TheStargov It’s because it’s safer to get ejected out of the kart than get stuck in it if it goes flying/rolling/etc. Pretty much the same concept as a motorcycle.

[@TheStargov]

@@CNDLmusic makes sense when you point that out.

[@dingodave89]

I wouldn't want to be strapped into a kart as it has no roll bar or the likes. It's safer because if the kart flips, you're already ejected from it and are at a lesser risk of injury.

[@Excludos]

5:35 yea no, that was under no circumstances your fault. Sure, without replays and camera angles, it's going to be difficult for the marshalls to see that, so I understand the penalty, but it was not deserved. He slides wide and the cuts across after you got your nose in. He lost control of his vehicle, and he does not have the right to the entire track at once.

[@hudzj01]

I was thinking that myself

[@ramiabouchakra2726]

Albon Hamilton Brazil 2019 Brazil and 2020 Austria

[@Excludos]

@@ramiabouchakra2726 ​ Let's ignore Austria 2020 because that one is completely different. Hamilton just accelerates and turned into Albon. However Brazil 2019 does at first look very similar. There's only one major difference, and that's the fact that Albon was in control of his car the entire time. He just took the corner wide, and Hamilton charged into Albon's blindspot. Hamilton should have known that gap was always going to close like it did, because Albon wouldn't even had any opportunity to see him there. Tho that said, I would still have called that a racing incident. Hamilton probably got punished to set an example

[@6St6Jimmy6]

Yeah that was my first thought and watching it multiple times again the guy just lost control before the hit. He was on an absurd line before the hit.

[@CreamAle]

I'm proud of. Actually chasing your driving dreams. Honestly hope you get to a point where you can cross off some bucket list goals. Major thanks and shout out to the companies supporting you with gear/whatever. Thanks for believing in the jimmer.

[@ronaldb6417]

Hey Jimmy, awesome video! How you messed up,but still got your head in the game and drove a really decent race is awesome to see. At the beginning of the video you showed a small clip of the previous race where you spun explaining it wasn't video worthy. But I would love to see some content of your bad races as well. The thing I love the most about the club 100 series is seeing how you get into real life racing and all the ups and downs that come with it. I understand that you won't be uploading it to this channel, but could you please consider a second channel with (even completely raw) footage of the bad times aswell. To give a full insight on a club 100 driver. I'd love that!

[@GeoffreyHellington]

I've only just started watching you a couple of days ago - thanks to the DT Skyline vid - and I just wanna say I'm fully behind you. If you ever make it into professional motorsport, which I believe you have the potential for, then you will already have a large cohort of fans behind you, myself included :)

[@urgigrull4013]

Great video, thx. And a great example of a nice theory in racing. The less amount of concentration and physical effort is actually needed to be quick, the more reserves you have ! Just as a mindgame: Imagine you had all the rules right there in your mind and would have followed those, because your mind was not occupied, you had the reserves left for a clear thinking, you would not have made the drive through. You could achieve that by either learning the rules by heart prior to the race, so your brain would not have an effort to have them at hand when happening. Or by being able to drive ( concentration and physical effort ) as relaxed as possible, to get some thoughts in your brain to work it out. So ... going fast as relaxed as possible is the main goal to achieve ! A different way to put it being fast and if you look az some past F1 races you might notice what a stress level to a driver can change ( e.g. keep hydrated, or Lewis arguing about a strategy, Vettel does the same thing ). So apart from doing some physical workout you might consider doing some stress resistance workout for your brain ( tarmac specialist ) as well. Just my 2 cents, but keep in mind, making the brain train, is evenly stressful as making your body work.

[@Pedroarom]

I agree with you! Number one rule when entering a car (race car or not): keep your head cool.

[@kmsjordan43]

Having raced at rye house for years in junior/senior rotax i know the pain of hitting the wall at stadium at full speed after hitting a wet patch on the track. Such a fun track but a real shame you cant cut the curb as much at pylon anymore. Great to see a video from here, brings back some memories.

[@pumakam]

Always fun to watch these karting videos, makes me want to go out and try it at some tracks near me once the pandemic is over. Hope you do have some better luck in some of your future races and practice that driving etiquette.

[@PixelPulseAdventure]

Dude, you sound so heartbroken when commentating what you could have reached and what you actually have done. You know what mistakes you did and how to do it better. I really felt with you when this happened. I am sure you are fine now and that you will do better next time. The good thing is that all drivers stayed safe and you had fun driving around the course.

[@seananthony9664]

Love the karting videos, especially as someone whos never sat in a kart

[@MettaTrance]

I marshalled at Buckmore park full time for a couple of years, club events and corporate. Seeing those drivers stand on the edge of the track trying to slow incoming karts down is terrifying to me. By the time they’ve reached you it’s too late, they’re well into their accident. Don’t try and do the flag marshals job even if they’re slow to react - it comes from wanting to protect your fellow drivers but you are so incredibly vulnerable standing there. I’ve seen it happen too many times and often the casualty ends up being the driver trying to slow others down.
