Kartplex Kart Racing at Area27 - Final Round (Oliver, BC)
Спорт
Visited the Kartplex facility at Area27 Race Track in Oliver, BC with some of my friends. The last round was my best one after getting used to the track and the karts. It was prefect weather and lots of fun. Its a pretty great setup down there, will have to return one day.

Thanks! I honestly can't remember what It cost. It was worth it tho! I'm also not sure how fast we were going.. It always feels faster in a Kart because you are so low to the ground. I'd guess it was at least 60-70kph.. so 35-45mph.
I was there yesterday! Was this from a few years ago? They have the track running the opposite way now. What was your best time?

No, it was July this year. It seems they change the track layout often. They will also run the karts in the opposite direction as well. I can't remember where our lap times were at, but when I saw the track records they were like 10 seconds faster.. I'd expect maybe 3 or 4 seconds at the most.. not 10 lol. Now I know why.

@@JonathanVee hmm, I’ve been several times over the past 3 years and it’s been in the other direction. I did t know they changed it up that often. My best yesterday was a 1:15.55, which is my personal best. It seems impossible to take a full 10 seconds from that but apparently some people can do it.

@@mdankewich Oh really? I have seen a few videos that were shot this year and seen different track setups being used. It made me assume they change it often. IMO the track is too short for someone in a rental kart to be 10 seconds ahead. It has to be a 2stroke racing kart or a different track configuration. The chicanes they used at the end of the straight for us definitely didn't help out our times. I saw one guys video where they weren't being used at all. Haha. Makes me question those lap records. Even being a second behind a record lap is a big gap and hard to close. Kart racing usually comes down to tenths or hundredths of a second. The closer you get to the limit, the harder it is to close the gap.
