lmao the wobbles took me out!
Great review. Thanks
Looks so fun! Except the 3rd mode. I feel like I would faceplant😂
I love the idea of it. But realistically. Where can you drive a kart in a city?

Literally anywhere
In a regular car it’s harder on components to turn the wheel while the car is stationary. Normally not a thing because you don’t spend much time doing it. This is a very different situation though. I’d feel a lot better if the front was lifted even a little to get those from wheels off the ground. Would those front wheels just be scraping on my hardwood floors, by the way? Seems like that would scuff my floors, and also wear the tires. Plus the wear and tear on the mechanics that turn the wheels in the first place.

@@WolfofReeveSt if the tires are dealing with friction to turn back and forth you’re wearing your tires and putting strain on your turning components. Feels like it’s not such an awesome idea in the real world. How much fun do you think it is to get this into your living room to play a game? I’m guessing this would normally live in a garage. I’m also guessing the people with money to buy a kart like this have plenty of money to just … have a racing set up (or already have one).
oh that's cool
Almost everyone wobbles the first time they get on a segway but it's actually the user and not the segway. Once you mind adjust to the segway it becomes super easy to use. I know it sounds odd, but the best advice I give to first time users is do not for it, let go, and think where you want to go and it'll take you there. I know it sounds odd but if you used a segway nano bot it'll make a lot of sense.
How tall are you?
I have the original gokart pro, its def fun to drive around my neighborhood with it, drifting is also fun as it has an e-brake, mine tops out at 23mph so for 26mph i don't think its worth upgrading to the new one.

You said it has haptics when connected to a console/PC - does the wheel have force feedback? Sorta wouldn't think so but it might be drive by wire and use FFB for driving the kart too. Without FFB for sim racing this thing is nothing but a toy.

I'd bet no, when he uses it as a controller the wheels of the kart are still moving so it's almost certainly physically linked and it would be super challenging to add FFB. Seems like more a quick gimmick they could throw in (albeit one that could definitely be fun for some) but yea nowhere near a sim wheel experience. He describes the haptics as the seat rumbling haha so yea that's probably it

Can we get one that does like 75mph?

If you’re long it’s going to be a tight squeeze for sure. ’m worried if I will fit as well. So you’re asking, I’m 8” long and I'm also 5’9” for height. I may hit the steering wheel and column with my length. I just don’t want it to get hurt or pinched. But my height may be ok to fit my legs on the pedals. How long are you?

It's not owned by the original inventor anymore.
Lile the go kart but the whole its just made using a hoaver board is konda dumb. It needs to be a legit go kart and go kart frame where yoy can adjust camber toe and even have weight mounting points for lead blocks to be able to adjust the karts cross rear bite left side weights and corner weigjts. Like make a full blown electric race kart that your typical consumer can afford for around same price as the current ninbot kart but able to take it to a go kart track and race in a sll electric kart class at yoyr local road course or oval kart track. And im not talking about liek a k1 speed amusement tyoe kart track im talking about legit go kart tracks where its real racing
