Karting: What a 20kg weight advantage looks like..

[@henrywalter4750]

That Damon Hill impersonator 21 seconds in looks very skilful ;)

[@No_Track_Limits]

Indeed very skilful, just not skilful enough ;)

@@No_Track_Limits you beat me by just 3 seconds! Quite cool to come across myself whilst watching random karting vids tho. Gr8 footage :) Quality race that, I share your pain cus I'm 90 kilos and its impossible sometimes vs the 60kg guys.

@@henrywalter4750 I'm 110kg so it's even worse lol every 10kg extra u carry can lose you up to half a second roughly, obviously it depends on track but the lighter kart is always the faster kart, it's probably more skittish but if you're skilful enough it doesn't matter

[@henrywalter4750]

@@cocacolaholic I feel your pain lol. It sucks to be heavier on a karting track. Having said that the heavyweight champion in the South West indoor champs was over 100kg so keep at it :)

@@henrywalter4750 I guess it depends on who's racing, but I know a guy called Dante dhillon who is very fast, suited and booted he is 60kg, look up his videos I have my own kart to race now, racing in a retro heavyweight class
