Crazy? German

What do you think? Crazy? german

He says "it was logged at 229,74 km/h by GPS- at the End of the "Parabolica" at Hockenheim-Ring Racetrack this Year...;-)

The main Drawback till now are the Brakes. The Kart is ready to drive at a total weight of 208 kg (458 lb) + Driver about 70 kg (187 lb)...that is about 50 kg (134 lb) more then an actual Superkart.
This is resulting in much earlier Brakepoint comparing to a Superkart and directly lower Laptimes.
I drive Hockenheim in 1:52, best Superkarts are at 1:43 ...


Cheers

You can do it quickly. You can do it cheap. You can do it right. – Pick any two.

Looks like it could do with bigger back wheels.

If you use the Elf Tyrrell as a yardstick the rear wheels are probably three times the size of the front.

Post it to Top Gear and see if he can beat the Ultima.





I used to be apathetic but now I just don't care.

And you run and you run to catch up with the sun but its sinking, Racing around to come up behind you again, the sun is the same in a relative way but your older, shorter of breath and one day closer to death
