KARTING DRIVER POV Practice GoPro Motorplex

Trying out a new camera angle. Unfortunately, I won't be able to use this angle during races. I hope it'll help with instructional videos in the future. But for now, check out a busy morning practice around GoPro Motorplex.

[@Super_GT]

Awesome video mate. It's a shame we can't use this angle in race videos as it's an epic angle to watch from.

[@faresjalil7493]

hi do you need to be tall to use it ? because i have one but in didnt tryed yet

[@NorbergNation]

Yeah it is a shame we can’t use it. Best angle to use.

[@kandh4268]

Smooooth operator!!!!!

[@vajda_marci]

Hi Ryan! Really great pov video, enjoyed it really!:) Just one question: as I can see there is a few corners where you leave the track quite hard, is it allowed also on races? And why?

[@AFFMotorsport]

A great view mate, well placed camera. I'm still trying to work out a mount, having a chin spoiler limits options, plus not legal in Aust to have a go pro mount stuck to a helmet especially a FIA/SNELL approved lid.

[@NorbergNation]

It’s not legal here either in race conditions. Thanks for watching!

[@WesOKT]

Cambox is a option

[@AFFMotorsport]

​ @Wes OKT It is an option, not sure I want to spend $745 on one, that I can not use in a race, and reduce my vision (60mm visor opening). But an interesting option. Might use an old helmet in practice and make mount a go-pro with a strap mount.

[@northwestrider369]

I have a video from there from many years ago. 2014 I believe. Maybe even 2013. I never raced, just went after work for practice days. It is great the way they structure rentals/owners so you can run any day of the week. Most tracks are race events only for owner karts. I kind of understand the “adding a camera to the helmet can compromise it’s safety” argument, but I think a chin mount camera should be allowed.

[@felipeduarte1997]

Can you show us how you fixed the camera on your helmet for this video? The pov is great! Congrats

[@powderskier5547]

Its chest mounted

[@JonathanWestcott]

What GoPro mount do you normally use that is near the left rear of the kart? I race lo206 and am looking for one that will work well.

[@NorbergNation]

Thank you!

[@shawncampbell1792]

@@NorbergNation I also used to run OTK stuff I really loved how the chassis flex was and how the kart liked to be driven. It's a kart that almost steers itself. And as you can see with the center of the frame being a bit softer really helps with those nasty curbs at Go Pro.

[@mikeymike6017]

Hi Ryan, I'm guessing this is on the chin part of the helmet? I really like the angle, but can't see it being a chest mount as others have suggested?

[@lezhonggao3619]

Great video! Where did you mount the action camera by the way?

[@lucassam1324]

100th time watching this video still worth it :)

[@mohammedadoul9751]

Hey, great video! I'm soon to buy a gopro hero7 with a chest mount but am worried about the angle being a bit too low from the chest. Was this done with a chest mount?

[@hoineenietjij3331]

Most of the karting drivers mount the camera on the chin of their helmet

[@SB-eh8ze]

Which camera are you using?? The smoothness is amazing

[@benjisyt]

hey ryan what go pro mount was that? can you please share a link =)

[@Jacobharrisracing]

Great video mate, one question tho would you run a angled steering boss and a adult wheel on a junior or cadet for better control?

[@filipniemkiewicz1026]

I dont have much knowledge on an angaled steering wheel, but I know that a larger steering wheel can help if the driver struggles to turn the wheel. So in turn this could increase the drives control of the kart. But, this could make the driver begin to turn the wheel too much, and develop a bad driving habit. Something you can only find out with testing. I would maybe try some chassis tuning first or even some driver conditioning. That way its cheaper, and more beneficial in the long run.

[@NorbergNation]

I probably would not. The wheels are all designed for the specific chassis.

[@wavionchakara5318]

This angle is amazing

Thank you

gr8 POV ❤️ what do you prefer chin or over helmet? and what is the camera setting you are using?

@@olivierpiatek1897 The move wasnt necesarily dirty, just the actions of the driver were dumb, especially if they were driving in the junior class like their number showed, 'racing' against a senior driver in practive. You'd have to watch the video lol. He described this exact situation in the video, but here it was even worse because, mans got passed, then did an over under, then just let him by right after, IN PRACTICE, that was just a waste of time.

Thank you very much for your helpful insight! 😊

[@doubletrouble786]

Love this angle! I was just wondering. How long do you usually keep a chassis? I have a 7 year old Margay which I started with this year and I am struggling to find consistent grip in the front. Do you think I should invest in an upgrade or keep trying with the old one and learn more since I am new to the karting scene?

[@NorbergNation]

I would probably invest in a new one. At an entry level, if you race a lot, getting a new kart every year is good. If you don't race a lot, every year or so the frame should be upgraded to a new or less used frame.

[@doubletrouble786]

@@NorbergNation thanks, I’ll look into it

[@Str8representing]

whats so bad about old frames? i guess its age shouldnt matter if i wont race?

[@doubletrouble786]

@@Str8representing it depends on how much you race. But over a period of time the frame becomes bent or soft after all the beating it goes through. If it’s too old it will eat your time on the track.
