I want to say a massive thank you to everyone that has supported this series in any way. It's been really good fun taking part in this championship. Also a huge shoutout of course to Quadrant for backing me to race this year. Legends!

I, too, have occasionally had a few too many . Congrats on a solid season, Steve!

[@jacksmith4460]

Watching the likes of yourself and Mr Broadbent actually racing, is really great to see, it adds a whole other dimension to the channel. Its also cool to see traits translate from the Sim Rig and the track, knowing now that you have done hella Karting, it makes absolute sense and tracks with the style you drive with on your GT vids. I find driving styles quite interesting and watching others like Kie, Jimmy, FailRace Ollie etc, you get a good feel for someones driving style over time, and you have that aggressive Kart style purist racing driving style when you are on GT, more so than many of the guys on other channels, someone like Jimmer is more cautious. So a Karting background fits that. Its really cool to see you on real tracks putting real moves down in real races. Keep it up

[@mirco5055]

So sad to see the season end. I‘m really looking forward to the next year and see you in the kart again. Great improvement over the year and a big thank you for the really really nice and enjoyable content! keep it up mate🔥

[@AFFMotorsport]

A good job Steve, this year was always going to be a learning year for you. I raced last weekend, 25mm of rain on Saturday in an Enduro kart race, 28 karts made for challenging vision indeed. Then Sunday's Enduro was dry. Great work mate. Bring on 2022.

[@liliananyx.]

Damn, 2022's over before it even started!

[@maddog3770]

I'm so proud of you man! Been awesome to watch the struggles and successes of a real driver. So cool to be apart of it with you, great video btw! Excited for future contend

[@joecraddock6542]

Great season for you mate, well done and congratulations on your rookie season in owner karting for a while, and great to see you did the last club 100 round, GGS mate

[@stuartnorman9010]

One of the best things to come out of 2021 is this six part series for me it was great. I really hope for more next year even got me un wrapping my kart although it still sits for now. Have a great xmas Steve come back stronger next year. Cant wait

[@Steesafc]

Only two miles from my house this track! Well done this season Steve, a man well and truly living the dream

[@Preliam]

Hey Super GT, just wanted to say well done and thank you for helping me somewhat kick start my Karting career. I’ve been watching your videos for quite a while now and I’m happy to say that I just finished my first full year in junior rotax with its highs and very lows, and now I’m doing my first ever year in cars which should hopefully be fun. But I can’t thank you enough for inspiring me to join the karting scene, and well done at the UKC and hopefully you have even better luck if you do it next year :)

[@gilangthehuman7713]

Congrats man, good luck and have fun :D

[@DaleyRetro]

Easily my favourite Motorsport series on KZbin this year, can't wait to see you race it all again next year!

These videos are awesome, I’d never been karting until 2 weeks ago and now I’m hooked. Your videos are great entertainment while I wait to go karting again.

[@laradevenish6866]

You inspired me to get back into karting again and warden law is one of the first tracks I tried out - a friend and I went the Thursday before the UKC started and then watched you at the UKC the rest of the weekend. I hope you liked the shirt and the key rings for the quadrant gang too. Look forward to next year! All the best!

Well done steve. Always wanted to see race in the competitive scene and you have done so well. Push harder for next year💪💪

Was doing that on the Sunday and it didn't work against the mud.

[@Simm0700]

Really enjoyed watching your story/progression through the season Steve. Cheers mate.

[@johngibson3770]

That thick middle black line is an indication that whomever surfaced the track are not very good at their jobs. The line between lanes (Individual strands of tarmac) should be a max of 5mm wide as there is absolutely no grip on it. I do that for a living. Have resurfaced Knockhill (Scotland) parts of Snetterton.

[@porsche4516]

What an incredible season you have had. Congratulations on all your achievements this year, its been incredible to watch all you videos. Thank you so much for inspiring me and many other people to start karting. I can't wait to see you back next year 🥳

[@Natureslife64]

Hey Steve, loved watching your journey throughout this entire series. Was super fun to watch, and honestly made me rethink how I should prepare my mental before I do something competitive. Your improvement throughout was astounding, and I can only aspire to become like that someday. Also, I was thinking because of your camera getting so wet and foggy, do you use or played around with ay hydrophobic products that can prevent fogging or water buildup or even mud buildup? It could potentially help with the clarity in rainy races, as I do think those tend to be your strong suit. Anyways, thank you for documenting your journey Steve, it was a wonderful ride. Looking forward to next year. Cheers.

[@Blossomy77]

Warden laws is my home track great to see you enjoyed it

[@thomastx1]

Tip for driving in the wet which helped me a lot is that you should always lean toward the outer side in corners adding pressure to those tires. Use your length and weight in your favour!

[@xSuspect-7]

Have to say, you really got me there... Had to check the year to know if I was in hibernation this last year

[@THEIANKENEGHAN]

Those black lines in the tarmac are lethal, I nearly binned my motorbike recently on one

[@AtotehZ]

One thing I got in the habit of doing when competing on a new track was talking to the locals. Sometimes even before the first practice. Most of it you pick up really fast from past experiences of similar corners on other tracks, but sometimes the locals can point out situations that let you set up overtakes or defend better or avoid a certain line in the wet or so on.

[@Maximus-vd5wj]

It’s so strange to see your local track from a different perspective. Great vid 👍

[@gasly946]

[@JapanCustomTours]

Great content thanks - especially the 3-lap warmup on the Sunday morning. You should send that to "Just Devon" for him to add as a GT bonus clip - I'd love to hear his commentating your misfortune.

[@chuckwagon7354]

I have to say, you have given it the full beans during this season. Dropping loads of weight and I imagine a few sessions in the gym. On top of that holding your hand up and asking for help to get better at racing. For me, (and I know I slabbered a bit during the season) at some point the real Racer will emerge. I think you've proved you are an IRL racer. I really hope what you have coming up in 2022 involves a progression from Karts (Ginettas maybe!) Same as Jimmer. Imagine the two of yous fighting for the same corner!!!

[@AlanDoveKarting]

that wouldn't be progress. The competition in karts is far higher across the board in the UK. KZ would be a good option, but the MSA don't allow onboard cameras.

[@chuckwagon7354]

@@AlanDoveKarting But it is a different type of racing. Karting is seriously skilful and brilliant to watch (but not widely broadcast) Jimmy Broadbent had very little experience of irl racing but handled a season in Britcar. I think Super GT could do the same.

[@AlanDoveKarting]

@@chuckwagon7354 My point is it isn't a 'progression'. Jack Doohan didn't top 10 my local KZ club race last weekend. The level of drivers in UK karting national absolutely smashes anything else pound for pound. Cars are progression in expenditure, but not much else.

@@AlanDoveKarting I'm not meaning to denigrate Karting but it is not ideal for everyone.

We had our first rain in the F400 endurance recently... No rain tires allowed... Did ~ 2 laps in the wet (with a dry setup), that was an interesting experience. Was completely unprepared for it, but I can see how you can make massive gains in such conditions.

[@danielevertsson7978]

Started karting 1 year ago and i learned so much by purposely going over the limit and pushing harder than my monkey brain let me. today i race in a gokart league and competing on the top against experienced drivers. i try not to overanalyze my driving style and instead drive subconsiously with a euphoric/aggresive mental state.

[@xypherdc2902]

I race there all the time, it's a great track and has many possibilities for overtaking

[@roqueperalta5623]

Awesome job Steve throughout the year, congrats! Can I ask you what’s your favorite kart sim out there? Thanks

[@stuartjones7454]

Watched all the videos mate. Great entertainment. Lovely work

[@jtm1283]

I've noticed that you use something like an Alonso approach to tighter corners, with a hard early turn-in, then backing off. I don't know if you do this for front-tire heat, front-end braking, or (like Alonso) for the understeer, but it clearly won't work on fast sweeping corners. Maybe that's why you prefer tighter tracks ... because you like (too much?) a hard early turn-in. Sort of like a rally driver who flicks every corner, even if it isn't needed.

[@meesterbingbong5641]

I think the small adjustments unsettle the kart as well. Constantly readjusting your line through long corners doesn't help. I think Steve has just got to turn off the concerned/safety part of his brain and just commit. Probably easier said than done but all of the other top drivers just go for it but again that is through a lot seat time.

[@jtm1283]

@@meesterbingbong5641 While I agree with you, in general, that any steering input has the tendency to unsettle the vehicle and cost you grip, karts are a bit different, because they have no suspension. This raises the following issue: driving games with a lousy physics model can cause grief for actual driving because of this sort of effect. (The game will let you do things that don't work in real life.) If you've been around for a while, you might have a fondness for Live for Speed (not Need for Speed), as it was one of the first games with good physics (and it was free!).
