RACING 70mph KARTS at Daytona Tamworth

[@PericoKarting]

Someone in my Discord threw a hissy fit at my explanation of the engines at 0:36 and it's apparent I've misspoken. They're not four/two "cylinder," they're four/two "stroke." Apologies for the confusion.

@PericoKarting lol I did 😆 enjoy the rest of your day

[@ieurobeatkids9378]

Hey, going through the vid now. Great as always, and you're making some nice moves for your first time! The top speeds are closer to 55-58mph, but still damn fast for rentals. Probably second quickest true rentals out currently, only beaten by club 100 karts due to less weight. I do kinda hate how rental kart places don't use the realistic top speed for their karts, and instead use the speed if you gave them like a mile long drag strip. Those engines (rotax junior max) just barely reach 70mph in owner karts half the weight on similar sized tracks. But higher speeds sell better I guess🤷‍♂

[@ZainKHAN-qi8de]

yh i used to race jnr rotax and have 70+mph in that kart then i went and tried the dmax karts at Milton Keynes and it was way slower and felt it exactly to be like high 50mph max.

[@aaron_5994]

The flap that flew open is for a compartment that holds ballast (weights), if anyone was wondering.

[@Dropped2436]

17:33 That's the cover for the little bit where you'd put the ballast weights if it was superchamps. It's fairly common and a fairly annoying issue but it won't come flying off so don't worry lol

[@KartingWithJosh]

"a bit crap but it'll do" had me in stitches mate! The feeling when you first let the DMAXs rip on the straight is genuinely the first time I was scared to kart and contemplated whether this was for me. However when you get the hang of the beast that is DMAXs wow they are fun! Glad you enjoyed it as much mate!

[@PericoKarting]

I was repeating the words "don't crash" in my head like a mantra for the first few laps lmao

[@mattelliskarting]

I have a sneaky suspicion i was in your race there. I recognise a few guys from a race a week or so ago. You picked the perfect time to try them out as they've just fitted a much better tyre to them which has made them much more grippy. Theyre running well at the moment. Definitely a solid first drive for the first time in the DMAX man. They can be a massive handful if you're not sure what to expect when you first jump on. A little disappointed ypu didnt do the obligatory lockup and crash into the first braking zone of t4 on your first lap. Youre using alot more apex kerb than you need to, and as you point out its throwing you wide. T4 you could be alot further left on turn in, and back on the power earlier for a shallower exit to carry loads more speed. Hope to see you back again soon!

[@TraceEx]

Hell ya a Perico video! Kinda good to see you struggle on some new karts, makes it realistic expectation. Faster kart, different track, have to start from scratch. Gives me hope cause if you with all your experience try faster karts and find it difficult it makes me feel better about having same issues

[@racing1000]

Damnnn those karts are fast! This track is giving me Interlagos vibes, looks so fun! Awesome work mate! 🙌

[@nosebleedpuddle]

The 2 stroke karts are insaaane. I went to Sandown Park a fair few years ago and it started to absolutely chuck it down before we went on track. Wet track, slick tyres + 0 wet karting experience was.. interesting

[@NBAPGaming69420]

Mate love this vid man your the best karting KZbinr honestly keep it up man

thanks for the video i was planning on going here in next thew weeks for me birthday and this is a perfect video to see what its like :)

Former marshal at the track and can say your lines weren’t that bad, the track/corners have multiple lines depending on your style and weather. Definitely would have recommended you did a sodi season before the dmax tho

[@PericoKarting]

Thanks! I did have that recommendation before, but having a go in these DMAX karts is something I had wanted to do for months, and we finally did it on a whim before the dreaded British winter set in lol

Mate they do not go over evejn50 💀

[@Richard25000]

They really aren't anything like they claim.. they not actually Junior max theyre more of a Minimax.. they dont get anywhere near 70mph. Theyre geared poorly so dont make the most of the power band. Having run 24 hour at MK several times with a data logger youre lucky if you see 53mph. Go try a senior max experience, with some proper tyres and half the weight. If you get into owner driving in the long run, it's cheaper with 2-3x the performance.

[@stuff_13]

Huh

[@Veer_Shandilya]

70 MPH IS CRAZYY I wish I could try that lol 😮

[@RBRacing55]

The Tamworth DMAX karts need a special set of skills to properly master due to the heavy chassis, you really need to rotate them with the brakes! The DMAX karts are Milton Keynes or Sandown use the N35 Chassis and feel much more easier to drive in comparison and have the same power, definitely recommend doing a MK race before going back to Tamworth so you can feel the difference 😅

[@PericoKarting]

Interesting, I was unaware there was a difference in chassis. Strange that Tamworth decide to do that, considering they have plenty of N35s knocking about the place 😅

[@Jake_Connellan_71]

Current staff at Tamworth here - the DMAX fleet we have is actually several years older than both our N35 fleet (we used to have SODI RT8s) as well as the DMAX fleets at the Milton Keynes and Sandown Park tracks, so ours were actually first - hope this clear it up! 🙂
