[@jcf1karting]

Nice good job! 👍🏽

[@Justjumpplease]

Yesss finally, I have been looking forward for this for a while! Nice racing from you! Well done!

[@jcf1karting]

This helped me to learn the track before heading there. Managed to put down a 51.2 as a PB. Super fun track

[@jcf1karting]

Nice job! 👍🏽

[@mateenio2186]

Going on Sunday for the first time, this a great video, you really nailed the laps

[@jcf1karting]

Thanks! I believe there is a lot more grip there now looking at the lap times. Still slippery but should be faster, enjoy! 👍🏽

[@mateenio2186]

@@jcf1karting it's was a good session, bumpy on the straight though, the best i managed was 53.8s, but the track is definitely getting quicker

[@jcf1karting]

Nice! Good job! It is definitely a bit bumpy on the straight in the breaking zone. Did you enjoy it though and would you go back?

[@mateenio2186]

@@jcf1karting yeah enjoyed, it was my second time in a go-kart. Will definitely return to the Canary Wharf track as i live in East London

[@robertovic915]

Feels like these karts accelerating much quicker compared to the petrol ones they had at Barking.

[@jcf1karting]

That’s the difference with electric power there isn’t any lag it’s instant 👍🏽

[@gilbertleon3080]

Went recently. The karts were very understeery. But overall good fun!

[@Krwler]

Must’ve been so frustrating. Clearly the quickest but stuck behind. I miss the old track

[@jcf1karting]

Can be frustrating yeah, hard to overtake with such little grip

[@jayrusty2012]

You’re seesawing like mad with the steering wheel! 😳 guess it’s that lack of grip? I’m doing this tonite, so watching your onboards for homework.

[@jcf1karting]

Yes very little grip. This was the opening week so the track was very green. I’m not sure how much the track has improved in regards to grip but I do believe it has. Been watching the lap times come down quite a lot so I’m guessing the track feels better. Enjoy! 👍🏽

[@jayrusty2012]

@@jcf1karting btw, some of the guys u were driving with were acting like absolute dildos! Blocking like their lives depended on it! 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@luko6man_o9]

I went their yesterday and omg it's so slidy like first time grip didn't exist but then during the race was much better they go really quick first time in electric karts too the track had so many turns the really big turn was difficult icl

Great fun tho right!

@@jcf1karting I’ll be going here tommorow and I would like to know how it’s going to be. Me and my friends are doing a full gp with qualifying and a race. Do you get trophies for the podium spots and are the karts nice to drive

[@jcf1karting]

You get little medals for the top 3. The karts are ok yeah they are pretty much still brand new. I believe the track has gripped up a bit since I filmed this video, but will still be slippery. Enjoy it mate 👍🏽

[@BFORDKARTING]

@@jcf1karting thanks mate

[@chrisnnaji5003]

Nice video, how did the track feel because I saw another video and it looked very slippery

[@jcf1karting]

Thanks. Yes it’s very slippery! You need quite a bit of kart control, very easy to get it wrong and spin

Get to grips this track has no grip. Went last week won't go again

[@imranhuddin]

Tracks are not wide enough imo. So many times you could have over taken them.

[@ardavonetemadi5048]

Mate, I need some tips before a corporate event we are doing. Any tips?

[@jcf1karting]

Sure! First and foremost, qualifying. Extremely important to do your absolute best here as it’s quiet tricky to overtake so getting a good starting point is most of the job done! When you are doing your qualifying try to find some space to get some laps in and try not to battle with people to much. As for the driving on this track it’s very slippery. So you want to try be as smooth as you can. Try not to be too aggressive with the wheel. There’s not much braking needed either most corners you’ll find a slight lift is enough. I’d say there’s only two corners you need to break for. If you go to @10:02 for the race start and follow a lap the first corner to brake for is at @10:32 & @11:01 Hope this helps. What ever happens just enjoy it and have fun! That’s the main thing, it’s only karting 😂👍🏽

What's the top speed kart reaches plz

I would guess at around 30 - 35mph

[@zakbad1479]

Is the seat quite big and adjustable

[@jcf1karting]

Yes I think so. I’m quiet big myself and have no issues

[@ags911]

Nice video! Where did you place the camera for this and does it get in the way of your vision?

Thanks! It’s a chin strap for the GoPro, and it doesn’t get in the way of your vision at all Here’s the eBay link www.ebay.co.uk/itm/174492060250?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=s-PDaoNrTcC&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=lg6iRF9HTk2&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

[@JustinLT212]

First time on this track my best lap was 1:01.494 placed 5th confident I can get closer to 0:55 next time I go, overall good track,hitting the boost feels nice but on the long straights the kart bounces a bit and you can defo feel it, also rip the capital karts in barking is closed :(

[@jcf1karting]

Good job! Have they enabled the boost button now then? I see that the lap times have come down a lot in the last week

[@Raresstanciu1]

my fastest was 53.981 apparently tho someone got a 49 high

[@jcf1karting]

@@Raresstanciu1 good job! I did this lap the week that the track opened so the track was very green and very slippery. The fastest lap now is a 49.081

[@Raresstanciu1]

@@jcf1karting i did that lap like 3 weeks ago with the blue button working, i honestly have no idea how to loose more time, do u have any tips in particular for this track, im going again today and it would be nice to improve

[@jcf1karting]

Oh cool I haven’t had the chance to use the blue button yet. I need to get back over there myself to see how the track has improved. The only thing I can suggest is, to be as smooth as you can 👍🏽

[@gregc7699]

Looking on the website the prices are fucking extortionate 😮

[@jcf1karting]

Wow yeah just had a look and prices have gone way up!

[@MJL1912]

What do the buttons on the wheel do?

[@jcf1karting]

1 shoots rockets and the other drops bananas 😂 only joking! 1 is a reverse button and the other is full power

[@joc8515]

Interested on going. How was it ?

[@jcf1karting]

Good fun! Hard to overtake sometimes and quiet slippery. But definitely worth a visit 👍🏽
