Fighting for the Championship Lead at Lydd | GX-UK Round 2

[@tropiicul]

Jacob had the audacity to tell me he didn't think he had the pace to be at the front on Sunday morning. That lad is quick. Great Video Brad!

[@BradPhilpot]

Yeah he’s an instant front runner

[@AlexVangeenRacing]

Yeah that boy is rapid! Annoyingly so

[@solemods5991]

Good to meet you today at Llandow , and thank you for all the advice. It was kind of you to take the time to talk to my son and me. Good luck with the rest of the championship. 🤜🤛

[@BradPhilpot]

Great to meet you guys! If you have any questions about GX or help finding a good kart just shout!

[@solemods5991]

@BradPhilpot thank you Brad, I really appreciate it 👍

[@HBRacing15]

Your content style is amazing keep it up 🎉

That’s really kind - and thanks for watching!

@@BradPhilpot I am going hooton this weekend for the first time I’ve really enjoyed learning and watching your videos as I’m battling for 1st in the championship

[@domhemp6432]

Great video Brad. Thanks for your advice on the weekend and getting me up to pace 😁

[@BradPhilpot]

Thanks Dom!

[@Rob_Turner_UK]

Pmsl, when Brad ends up with a crap hotel! Staying at the track is the best bit!!

[@BradPhilpot]

Last time I let @alexvangeen choose the hotel! 😂

[@tomtom3195.]

Good video mate, lets keep the battles going at Hooton!

[@peterbradbury1592]

Brilliant video Brad a well done in the races. Shame the final didn’t take place, but it didn’t affect the standings. Good luck for the next meeting

[@BradPhilpot]

Thanks Peter!

[@grubbymangomotorsport3992]

Great racing with you 👌

5:00 I kid you not I race at lydd with my own kart all the time and I also forgot to put on my fuel cap once 🤣

Great vid as always dude.

[@paulhandley1465]

Awesome!!!!

[@BradPhilpot]

Thanks for watching ❤

[@kieranshanks]

Another awesome video mate👍

[@nickguy831]

I’d rather have the engine in the left thus making clutch chain and gearing adjustments!

[@BradPhilpot]

But the chassis doesn’t have engine rails on the left so you couldn’t do that unfortunately. They’re designed for engines on the right.

[@VascoBreitenfeld]

Awesome video Brad! These are my favorite karting videos on KZbin! Just wondering if you could share your GoPro setup, looks much better than chin mount or top of the helmet

[@BradPhilpot]

Thanks for watching! Actually The on-helmet view is way better but that’s been banned, so I’ve had to buy a lower quality “in helmet” visor cam (CamBox V3+) and the only setup I’ve done is changing it to 60fps instead of the standard 30. I’m really glad you enjoy the videos! What do you like the most about them and I’ll try to do more of that?

[@VascoBreitenfeld]

@@BradPhilpot Yeah I kinda saw your setup in your video with Cameron Das but it also seems to be banned in my local tracks even though its only rentals. I think I will stick to my side of the head mounted gopro. I like how even though I only knew you and Alex from MAP, you create a really clear picture of the league, your main competitors and there's a storyline to follow. That plus the videos not being only on track footage but also the behind-the-scenes in the tent with karting setup and the travelling parts, makes me feel a part of it. Keep up the great work!

[@elitesennabubble]

exhilarating racing

[@Angus_Langley_Racing]

Great video 🔥

[@daltonsikhosana8275]

I didn’t expect to see Tom here.

[@KartingTrackGuides]

Yes, yes, Yaaaaas!

[@BradPhilpot]

Thanks Kieran!

[@mauricemcgeouch8736]

Hi Brad. What cambox you using? 3 or 4?

[@BradPhilpot]

@@BradPhilpot hopefully we get a Brad vs Andy final showdown at hooton👌🏼

[@BradPhilpot]

@@DanWalker97_ he was faster than me there last year too.

[@DanWalker97_]

@@BradPhilpot game on then💪🏼. Have you thought about a 360 go pro/insta 360 for the videos? Good for in race battles👌🏼

[@BradPhilpot]

@@DanWalker97_we aren’t allowed cameras which can see backwards.

[@JonathanWestcott]

How much is an engine when it’s all said and done to race in this class?

[@BradPhilpot]

Brand new around £800, second hand around £400

[@JamesBentley-il8fe]

fair enough

[@daltonsikhosana8275]

Brad vs Andy might be bigger than senna v Prost, hunt v lauda, verstappen v Hamilton

[@BradPhilpot]

Yeah it’s huge 😅

[@McookKarting]

i was here 100uk jnr

[@BradPhilpot]

How did your day go?

[@McookKarting]

@@BradPhilpot couldn’t get setup right, rear was always hopping so second off pace

[@downy8586]

"Hotel for the night", how the other half live, can't now really think this is affordable racing anymore as it's quite obvious affordable is quite subjective!....more like posh boys racing.....

[@BradPhilpot]

Did you actually watch the video? Because if you did, you’d see we were in a £25 per night room with no toilet. Doesn’t sound particularly posh. Buying a tent would have cost more. And had a better toilet.

[@kye_Racing21]

Ha karma

[@BradPhilpot]

Thanks for watching!

[@knoxville1782]

Stop with the hand gestures to "work together" you don't work with them but you are simply saying don't try and pass me. In X30 you would get sent into the dirt for doing that after every pass

[@BradPhilpot]

You’re missing the point. I’m faster, so it’s in both our interests to not fight. I’m simply saying let’s go forward together. If they choose not to do that, then more fool them. I’m not saying “don’t try and pass me”. I’m saying “trying to pass me would be unwise for you and simply lose you more time before I inevitably repass you.” If someone sent you into the dirt for that, then they’re an idiot - and they’d be getting a penalty. Simple 🤷🏻‍♂️
