r/Karting Rotax 17h ago

Karting Chat First practice day in my rotax!

It was one of the best days of my life! In the morning the kart had some trouble starting and when I locked the wheels when braking the kart would stall and it wouldn’t come back to life but we quickly fixed it. I think I was pretty fast considering I’m two seconds off the pace with used tires, no setup, a colder track ( the national rmc is in the summer and its winter ) and it was my first time. I also found some used rain mg tires which were in good condition so i brought them home. I still don’t have a mychron but my dad was timing my laps and i was consistently in the low 48s, I wasn’t able to do a 47 so that’s gonna be my goal for the next day. I’ll leave a video of a couple of laps so you guys can tell me where I can improve. I’m also going to buy a used go pro from a friend so i can record onboards, hopefully everything is ready for the next I go to the track. Thank you for your help!
