Everything You need to start karting in 2023!!

In todays video we will look at some of the gear you will need to start karting in 2023. I have done karting with none of my own kit and now a full suit and helmet, so hopefully I can help you decide what items to prioritise getting first.
Hope you enjoy!

Since 05 have always worn knee pads . A back up helmet always nice to have ! Do double duty as a track marshal and have seen two helmets get wrecked from being ejected from kart and sliding across track . The 1st guy it was a race day and the visor was a mess . We had same make of helmet so gave him my clear visor to finish the day .

You made me sure that i need to buy rib protection. THX

[@A1bin]

Glad I could help🙃 Rib pro is probably the best money you'll spend in karting.

[@CrazyW.]

I’ve been karting since 2016 and I’ve only done 2 laps without a rib protector 😂, definitely recommend getting one

[@KristineKolodziejski]

Watching this with bruised ribs on both sides regretting not getting rib protection and now you've convinced me 😂subbed!

Hi mate, nice vid, i reccomend (if you want) buying a neck brace because a friend of mine got injured (now he is ok) because he didnt wore that

[@A1bin]

I think, if i do some two stroke racing next year i will get one. Neck injuries sound like a nightmare. I hope you friend is doing well :)

[@jacobclay3815]

Some people don’t wear neck braces, it isn’t proven that they will actually work. Most of the high level karters don’t wear neck braces

[@Borex2]

I had a crash where i my stomach hit the steer wheel ( it got bend/ not usable) i know i went too fast ( it was indoors)

[@beanzboy9113]

Thanks for the help 👍🫡

In summer I recommend a tinted visa wham your outdoors.

[@A1bin]

Just about to put mine back on for the summer :)

[@cloudzdrizzo291]

i was wondering what it takes to get yourself into races ect been racing indoor tracks my whole life and the odd outdoor just wondering on how to get into local races ect? thanks

[@A1bin]

Many local tracks have their own championships so if you look around their website you can often find an entry link there. There is also a some of national rental championships like SRK in the UK or Kartraces nl in the nederlands. The people at your local tracks can probably tell you where to find a good owner or rental championship for where you are based. Hope this helps :)

Of all The videos to get 10 thousand views, it had to be the one with THAT HAIRCUT 🤣

[@ko3v200ma9295]

what helmet do u recommend under $300? still kj8 evo?

[@A1bin]

Yes, absolutely :)

[@eugene4643]

Wait for spring sale from motorcycle shops ! Have used 9 helmets since 2005 and keep in 200 dollar range ! Also best time to find something unique !! My only plain helmet is yellow and that's for rain races !

[@ayambermain]

Hello, do you have any helmet reccomendation under 250$?

[@eugene4643]

Spring sale at a motorcycle shop. Use HJC and Joe Rocket . Found G Max fogs up easy . On 9th one over 19 years !!

[@Yesthankyou8]

No neck collar?

[@A1bin]

I don't use one because the karts i drive don't go particularly fast, If you are driving a two stroke then they are defiantly worth the money :)
