Good choice. I have an Easykart myself…….worked out awesome at Norman this weekend for the STARS of karting event.
BTW……..you actually CAN brake into the corners. It’s called trail braking, and it could help shave time off. You’ll get the hang of it.
Let me know if you have any questions about Easykart. Peace in the middle-east G. :cheers:
Good point on the trail braking comment, streets. I did find that i could induce rotation by trail braking to get the nose pointed in the right direction, but I also understand this is an ADVANCED skill and will come with more track time and practice.
I saw the race results posted on EKN from the Norman race. What were your results (since I don’t know your real name, sorry)? In the results, it looked like Brett Galegor had bad luck in the qualifying and races. Comments?
My name is Charlie Schendzielos.
ended up 10th………was as high as 5th ….but my ribs were KILLING me……and i was dealing with a LOT of grip………i was on 2 wheels through 4 of the corners! Not bad for my first race ever i guess. This was only the 2nd weekend I had even driven the Easykart, whick speaks of it’s great chassis setup stock.
I could’ve gotten 7th, but a black flag with a red square showed up, and i thought that meant stop! 3 guys went flying by, and i couldn’t make up the difference in the last 2 laps. Damn.
Oh well…..i learned a TON ………especially from the Galegors who i traveled with. They helped me so much, I can never say enough. Great people. I felt so bad for Bret. He struggled with carb problems the whole time there…….DAMN DUST! I know he would’ve easily been in the top ten.
Same for Dustin Courter. He almost finished 5th, but got taken out.
😡Can’t say enough for how nice a lot of the people were their. Oakland Valley Raceway’s team helped me by letting me use a stand, the Johnson’s from Iowa let me use a set of tires for practice. They were all great.
