Great video as always! Those Ghost Racing motors look strong.

[@StahlRacing]

Yessir, we need to get our kart setup dialed in a fuzz more for better exit speed, but the ghost engines helped tremendously!

[@gavingriffinracing5842]

I just started watching your guys' vids after KRA #1. I race at NewCastle too and came across your vlogs in the process of racing withdrawal and watching karting vids. It's really cool to see vlogs from my home track! Next event I've gotta meet you guys! Btw, if you watched the Yamaha races, I was the one leading for 3 laps in the Yamaha Senior race but my muffler came undone, R.I.P. Can't wait to go to the track and see y'all!

[@StahlRacing]

Definitely stop by brother! Can't wait to meet ya!

[@chrisbrough4772]

Great content again! We love watching all your videos and hearing your commentary!

[@StahlRacing]

Thank you so much Chris!

[@Dethrone47]

Today youtube recommended a Stahl video and i was super pumped thinking you released a new one, but it was an old one.... but here we are a few hours later with an actual new video, OH BABY!

[@StahlRacing]

They knew man. DOWN WITH SWEDEN!

[@Dethrone47]

@@StahlRacing True that! Still can't race here!

[@nickbroughracing4182]

Awesome Video! I raced at mrp in northern Indiana 2 weeks ago and same thing happened to us. Hopefully all this gets dropped soon and we can start racing again!

[@StahlRacing]

^This guy gets it

[@dominiquecallan148]

Nice work. New karts seem to be working out. Enjoyed the day an am jelly!

[@StahlRacing]

Haha thanks! No complaints here.

[@Ospreydogb2012]

Still in lockdown and racing is going to be a good while away here in Scotland so enjoyed this even more than usual 😎🏎💨

[@StahlRacing]

That's a bummer Bryan! Could always jump a flight to Indiana???

[@azinser31]

I've been so excited for this season, good luck to you guys!

[@StahlRacing]

Hopefully it gets back to normal soon. Best of luck to you Alex!

[@chickentuber]

Everyone at NCMP seem to run a really narrow rear track, why is that. Most racers at our local tracks run wide- 54-55". Thanks for posting these!

[@StahlRacing]

Where do you run? The widest I've personally run (two weeks in the new kart) is 51 inches. On my eagle I was usually 49ish inches. Could be the tires. We run 7.1 in the rear and some other places run 6s

[@chickentuber]

@@StahlRacing Pacific NW tracks- TCKC, PGP and SIMA mostly. Everyone also runs 6" lecont reds on 7" wheels.

[@StahlRacing]

@@chickentuber interesting. We run the new mg reds 7.1 as I said. New castle is also pretty grippy. Do you run super wide in the front too?

[@chickentuber]

@@StahlRacing Colder temps here so probably lower relative grip. We run pretty wide fronts too. I always thought narrow rear made sense but when I try it it's always slower for whatever reason. I'm fairly new at it so I'm not sure whats going on. Thanks for responding, BTW.

[@StahlRacing]

@@chickentuber heck yeah! Welcome to the family

[@CoeShow619]

Hello, I used to race TAG Rotax Masters 10 years ago with a 30mm TonyKart. I am 6'4" tall and 190lbs. Can you recommend a Birel Art chassis for me for a Masters Lo206 class here at Cal Speed in Fontana. I don't know if I'm too heavy for a 28mm chassis? I'd like it to last a few seasons too for a good investment. Does Birel Art make a front porch extension for their chassis? I'd like to be comfortable and lay back alittle for aerodynamics. Great kart footage. Makes me want one... Thank you for the help...Coe Show

[@StahlRacing]

Hi Coe, Thanks for reaching out, and welcome back to the sport! I'm 6'3" and 190lbs, and the Birel Art AM29 chassis works great for my lanky self. I don't think you are too heavy or too tall for a 28mm! Even though the frame is 28mm, it is very durable. It won't get 'flexed out' like TAG chassis tend to do because the LO206 doesn't have all that power the TAG's have. It should easily last more than a few seasons. Birel Art does make a front porch extension, which I highly recommend. Here is the link: www.pslkarting.com/shop/chassis-parts/accessories/pedal-box-and-extension/floor-pan-extension-2821/details. If you decide to get one, please let us know and feel free to ask any questions! You can email us at: [e-mail] - Kacy Stahl

[@CoeShow619]

@@StahlRacing Thank you very much for the information. Now I have to ask my wife. Happy racing man!

[@StahlRacing]

Best of luck to you!

[@jacobpeddycord9218]

Congrats on the medals. It hurts to watch me make that mistake in the sportsman race. Also we got medals for starting on pole?!? I need to get mine from that sportsman race then, but it is probably too late. :(

[@StahlRacing]

It wouldn't hurt to ask ol Shelby. Nah man everyone cringes when they watch their own replays, you're all good!

[@jacobpeddycord9218]

Yah, but not everyone gives away their first win. I know it wasn’t in the bag, but it was the closest I have been😉😒 I cannot wait to race with you guys again this weekend. It is always great talking to you and racing with you!

[@StahlRacing]

@@jacobpeddycord9218 keep working on your race craft. Anyone can put down one good qualifying lap. The tough part is being consistent the whole race. You've been improving tons man! Keep grinding

[@natefranco8269]

How tf are you guys racing? Omg I wish!!!

[@StahlRacing]

Sadly NCMP was shut down after this so we aren't anymore :(

[@natefranco8269]

Ya it sucks, I love watching your videos tho, you guys are just like me, my brother, and my dad😂 watching some of your older videos during the off season reminds me of being at the track, and we also got new karts at the end of last year just like you guys did and we’re just itching to take them out, you guys gotta come race in Ontario sometime, the birels are fast at CTMP, and if you get hurt and gotta go to the hospital it’s free😂

[@StahlRacing]

@@natefranco8269 can't resist that sort of healthcare package. I'll do my best to get up your way sometime. Thanks for the support!

[@loganprickett4398]

Are y’all racing on June 7th at Newcastle?

[@StahlRacing]

That's the plan 👀

[@loganprickett4398]

Do y’all only race at new castle

[@StahlRacing]

@@loganprickett4398 NCMP our home track where we race for points. I (Ben) was hoping to hit a bunch of tracks in the Midwest and travel around some but then quarantine happened. Still might be able to do some but ncmp, we've done whiteland, the brickyard, grands, and wanna keep adding to that list. Life is just getting in the way a bit at the moment.

[@loganprickett4398]

I was wandering because I’m new to karting and me and my father had just finished our first race at whiteland and was wandering if u would ever race there

[@StahlRacing]

@@loganprickett4398 I was iffy about it because of the track conditions from last year, but I heard good things about it so I think a trip back is likely. Just not sure when. You have plans to come to ncmp?

[@dustinversteeg680]

Check out , hunt the front youtube channel. They know what their doing

[@StahlRacing]

That's awesome for them! We have no idea what we are doing most of the time and I wouldn't change a thing about it.

[@speedlabperformance1241]

Tell kacy he needs a haircut 😂😂😂

[@StahlRacing]

Kacy needs a lot of help. Haircut is just the beginning

[@speedlabperformance1241]

Stahl Racing 🤣

[@dustinversteeg680]

Less talk, more racing and how to

[@StahlRacing]

What would you like to see specifically?

[@dustinversteeg680]

Why this particular chassis, how to set it up. Maintenance, tools you bring to the track.

[@StahlRacing]

@@dustinversteeg680 Good questions. We went over why we are in our BirelART chassis in our Unboxing New Karts video (VLOG 37). BirelART liked the idea of partnering with us, and we knew the reputation of the karts so it was a no-brainer. We also covered (briefly) the tools you will want with you in our Getting Started in LO206 Karting video. We have tossed around the idea of a set-up video. The only hurdles are we are still learning about these karts every time we are at the track as well as the fact that it is going to be a different setup for each track. However, a basic setup guide is a good idea that we are actively considering, specifically for newer karters who could use the help (been there). Thanks for the input!
