my favorite overtaking move is the switch back. it just feels so good haha

[@Me-0063]

Yesterday I searched this up without many results. The karting gods blessed me with this!

[@kartingtips]

That's awesome! Hope you found the video useful 😄

[@Floor773]

I subscribed yesterday and was finding good ways to defend my place. Helped me well!

[@kaue_mendes]

Awesome video! Basic tips, but make a great difference on the track. It's hard found in rental karts people that respect the lines and don't try to kill you when you are defending. 😅

I do sim racing and had an endurance race yesterday where I had to defend quite hard from the guy behind, and today this video pops up :D. I did defend succesfully, and noticed myself doing some of the things you point out in this video! There's still a lot to improve in my sim racing techniques, and I find that a lot of your karting content also applies to the sim! Thanks for the quality content!

Thank you for your feedback! That’s fascinating! Which game do you play on? I’ve only really played GT and F1 on PlayStation. I hope to try some PC sim racing games out though.

[@LifeDeLicious]

@@kartingtips Mainly Assetto Corsa and sometimes Assetto Corsa Competizione, I'm on PC with a pretty basic setup (desk mounted wheelbase and a single monitor). I've just joined a league and found that having a calendar of races made my practice more constructive and efficient than just joining random lobbies. I would really like to get into iRacing for the ability to hop online and race anytime but the costs are holding me back for now.

Best defending video I’ve found - clear, succinct and without “filler” 👏

[@FullStackFool]

“Filler” not “filter”! 🤦‍♂️

[@kartingtips]

I appreciate your feedback 🙌 Glad you found it informative!

[@andresfaouen8022]

Great video

[@Cyberfed.]

I love your vids, and I simply wanted to request a tutorial on steering if you haven't done so already. Keep up the great work btw. :)

[@kartingtips]

Thank you for your feedback! Great suggestion! Let me work on that video 👍

[@Cyberfed.]

Wow thanks so much. ;)@@kartingtips

[@HadyLikesRacing]

Yo dude what camera are you using?

[@kartingtips]

Hey! I’m using a GoPro Hero 10

[@ino9138]

now how to attack driver who always take defend line? is it imposible to attack?

[@IntegralMaleHealth]

Consider that the opposing driver will probably make a mistake at some point... this opens up a window of opportunity for you to overtake them
