Pushing for a Podium | 2024 Club100 Sprints | Round 3 Glan-y-Gors (GYG)
Спорт
Round 3? Yes, the round 2 race at Whilton Mill is reschedualed to later in th year, so fast forward (in a sense) to GYG! Last time out for #club100 sprint racing was soggy and slightly disappointing, so can the glorious Glan-y-Gors valleys cure the long standing season opener blues?
Heat 1: 00:35
Heat 2: 03:42
Heat 3: 06:10
A-Final: 09:15

Thanks, but you best get back to social media duties… 😉
Very much enjoyed this, unique take on the interspersing between live comms and commentary overlay was a nice touch! Very fair comments on our little tussle in Heat 3, exact opposite happened to me in the previous heat, so as you say, swings and roundabouts

Much appreciated! Having had time to reflect more, I think it’s a corner where even a little contact from behind can send the forward kart significantly beyond the line they are aiming for. It would be challenging when bumper to bumper in lap 1 to avoid this should the kart in front perhaps check their speed more than would be usual due to colder tyres or perhaps still getting used to the handling characteristics of the kart. It can also be difficult to rectify the situation once that initial small contact has been made. I didn’t show it as I was aware of the length of the video, but in the final there was an instance between Dan and I through the final corner where I inadvertently pushed him on slightly as it was the first or second time I had been on his bumper (instead of Adam) and I hadn’t quite got used to his speed through the corner. Luckily in that situation we had a small gap to the karts behind so I was able to lose very little time (and no positions) by letting off the throttle so that Dan could settle the kart, although he fairly issued me with the “calm down sunshine” hand 😅
Brilliant video as always Tim

As in my driving or the driving in general? There were certainly some close-quarter battles, but in general there was no real banditry from the field.
