GX-UK | Genuinely Affordable Owner-Driver Karting

[@lewistindall539]

Amazing. This is what karting needs. I hope it takes off. It could be the replacement of formula 6. That makes me so happy

[@BradPhilpot]

Come and race!

[@lewistindall539]

@@BradPhilpot I’m to committed time wise this year to buy and prep a kart etc.

[@ghinzani1]

miss F6 so much Lewis, Roger was great. We still run Senior Open Twin as Mod160 and are hopefully joining up with this championship next year for quite a few rounds.

[@lewistindall539]

@@ghinzani1 me too. They were so much fun. I love everything I’ve raced, but F6 was special Years. Roger was a very special person as well.

[@AlexVangeenRacing]

Awwww Lewis I’d love for you to come race with us. The season starts in April!

[@Rob_Turner_UK]

Couldn't agree more with Brad, We will be definitely signing up for the Cadet season. There are so many upside to this championship, to name a few: As buying (pre 2018) used parts Karts will keep their value, I could even see resell for the same price. s decide later it isn't for you there is little financial risk. Unable to throw money to make you go faster, everyone will have the same kit. Honda's low maintenance Vs 2 strokes GX £ per seat time Vs rental racing is an easy winner Series is run by experienced karters, loads of free advice When moving from Cadets to juniors, reuse the engine (get it de- restricted) Social meet loads of like minded people who love Motorsport

[@BradPhilpot]

Exactly! All great points!

[@andrewhicks8259]

great intro mate to what the series is about . smiles v pounds spent is great value.

[@AlexVangeenRacing]

Great Vid brad. Cant wait to join you next round in that Alonso Kart

[@AlexVangeenRacing]

And I bought that Alonso kart in the end! Getting ready to strip it all down get it freshly powder coated and prepped for the new sesson

[@mo-r-racing]

is there absolutely no way at all to do this with a 2 stroke, for say i do'nt know....30% more of the cost. x30/rotax still not affordable for most, what happened to TKM 4 stroke? it's a shame there isn't a super affordable 2 stroke option to this day.

[@BradPhilpot]

To be honest - not really. The very nature of a two stroke is that they will wear out faster and require more frequent rebuilds. The cost effectiveness of this series hinges on the engine formula.

[@rickyhutchings2263]

Looks like great fun great result seeing as you never raced there before.

[@blazesienko9576]

Nice1 Brad. Much better tham Indoor

[@GregBrownsWorldORacing]

Nyce, looks like a blast!

[@bmwlane8834]

Great video....I even signed up on the UK facebook. Love your channel. From the states.

[@BradPhilpot]

Thank you! That’s really kind. Where in the states?

[@G.G_karting]

Great video

[@BradPhilpot]

Thank you

[@protopigeon]

love this circuit :)

[@jonathanbott1144]

Yeah did hire karting a few weeks ago with my kid and he loved it. Karts aren't impeccable but they go well!

[@protopigeon]

It's great fun isn't it @@jonathanbott1144

[@lvchlann]

will this series race on proper tracks or just these rental type tracks?

[@BradPhilpot]

Proper tracks for sure. Next up is Shenington, which is a major MSUK type-track, and then Hootton Park which is another large 2-Stroke style circuit. Next year’s calendar hasn’t been decided but it will have proper tracks for sure.

[@lvchlann]

@@BradPhilpotgood i'm in aus but just thought it would be an absolute waste of a great idea if they were only racing on those little rental tracks

[@simonlowther-ss4yz]

Hi everyone how could someone at 40 get involved in this? Bit different from tkm but seems as much fun .. also best place to find a decent starter kart

[@jamal1493]

Absolutely fire vid.

[@BradPhilpot]

Thanks for watching!
