Karting tips post: Braking, Slowing down to going quicker ("Braking for dummies")

OK, so even I was confused writing that title, but fear not, I know what I speak off... kinda?? regardless I shall try and share what knowledge I think I have and here comes some braking and karting tips flying at yo faces! For all you advanced folk keep your faces in the WandiSport direction for some tips on Trail braking.

So you wanna look all fly and shizz locking your brakes just before you turn? and you may have seen me do it at hooton in my latest vid, if not make sure to check it out, if not for the karting then do it for pendulum's TARANTULA (the music in the background) 

Truth is it aint all about lookin' fly. in fact locking up is a very unefficent form of braking. I could explain the physics behind it but id much rather you took my word for it, later on in your racing adventures you will learn "Trail braking" which includes a little bit of locking up.

Birel Chassis review (1)

I am still writing the health and fitness post so look out for that it should hit your faces around next week ish

However, i realized i have had my Easy kart for a while and i am yet to tell you wonderful people what its like, I (like some of you out there now or planning to do so) started with a cheap TKM kart (still have it) that i bought with my friends, between the three of us we each own a 33.3% share of it, and whilst it was the most amazing project to strip, repaint and rebuild it, the chassis was from an old MS KART and a bit of a hand full in the corners, but if you can get you hands on an old race kart, rebuilding it is an amazing summer project (summer is coming up so save up three of four hundred pounds if you can and DO IT, there are plenty of old
style tkm's out there.... (REVIEW IS BELOW CLICK READ MORE)

Delays, delays delays

I'm afraid due to poor weather write to you from my home rather than hooton, and the videos regarding kart set up will be arriving on a screen in front of you a little later im afraid, and whilst i hold you captive i wanna say ive had a change in heart about karthakain, he recently made a mature statement saying that he and sebastian must move on, vettel who indirectly called him an idiot and a cucomber (a common german insult regarding driving, has not responded so i no longer dislike the HRT driver, i now have no emotion of feeling towards him, i nothing him.

Sporting Personalities (The "dip")

Whilst this blog is made to share my jurney of motorsport, along the way i will share some of my opinion on sport. mainly on motorsport and F1 but these can vary to all sports.

I like to think I watch a lot of sport from football to Formula 1 to Karting, and I have noticed a very broad variety in sports personalities. Many professional athletes are commonly judged on how they react to certain scenarios.

Formula 1 shows my point here as drivers go on to win their first championship, you often see drivers slipping under the radar mid-season, for example Jenson Button in 2009 made a records matching start to the season winning six of seven raced, a record only achieve before by Michael Schumacher and someone else (dunno who).

However after that, Jenson only managed to average 6^th throughout the rest of the season, (though double diffusers may have had something to do with it) Jenson claimed he wasn’t happy with how unpredictable the cars handling had become. But commentators and analyst seemed to think Jenson wasn’t coping with the stress of leading the championship too well. Though he did comeback with an amazing storm through the grid at Brazil to take the championship, it’s this mid-season dip in performance I wish to talk about.....
