Daytona 24 Hour Karting Race (behind the scenes)

[@39basil]

Nice to watch your video. It was nice to have you in the team and you and the young drivers really put in a great effort. Unfortunately the mechanical issues reduced our chances of another 24 hour win or a podium finish. Jensen has moved up from junior to senior in the Iame x30, Harrison is continuing to race BPEC prokart endurance racing, Jack and Tom are racing Mazda MX5 in the classic sports car series with Jack now off of his Novice plates, Phillip and Bal continue their racing at Daytona. Best wishes, Jon.

Amazing racing on a buzzing track, wow! Nice one!!

[@LuckyStr7ke]

Great video. Really enjoyed your insight, shame you had some bad luck with the kart but glad you still had a good experience. It's always my favourite event of the year and as you said almost anyone can get involved and live out those Le Mans fantasies.

[@OskartWild]

You guys did a fantastic race, and after all those problems and mechanical issues, finishing P11 is almost a little victory, you know? I would probably have finished last if all those things happened to me 😂 Great video, as a karting content creator myself I can see the amount of work and dedication you put into it! I hope to meet you one day and race with you on track, it would be fantastic 🙏🏼😊

[@LH97-racing]

@@Babs-z8l I’m 13 and literally race a lighter and faster version and I have an arks I don’t get why

[@GPEightyNine]

Nice video man! But so unlucky with the go kart... 🥲 It amazes me that they don't swap the go karts in every pit stop or have a minimum pit time/minimum mandatory pit stops, like most of endurance races in Europe. Because the organization seems to be pretty good!

[@kartingtips]

I agree! They had it in a 24 HR indoor Karting I did in Belgium and it made the race fair. Nobody could make kart excuses after 😂
