i don't get paid at all to do this so be grateful. /sarcasm
I want to be a racecar driver. And I will do what ever it takes to make sure that dream happens. This is my comedic up and down road to that dream. Thanks for checking out the channel and getting this far, because normally no one ever reads the channel description

What did you set? I cut my time down to a 24.4 but I can’t get faster 😂
are you breaking at all or just letting off throttle
Brakes all the way. In road course racing, off throttle coasting time, is lost time. You’re either on the throttle or brake at all times
What was your time ?
This is down the street from me, I need to go!
My best time there was 39.854
yeah its hard to do fast laps with all the people there but i managed to get a sub 36 there
the intermediate track is more fun in my opinion
do you remember what gearing you were running during this race?
@@coletickle IIRC a 58
@@DiegoAlvaradoRacing 16T driver? i also race at adams and am struggling with gearing
yo nice I do the league her
K1 Fort Lauderdale has a great fast track that requires breaking
do people bump into each other?? when driving
You’re not supposed to but it happens yeah
The best
Need rear view bro! Awesome videos. Thinking of getting into karting
You’re 100% right. I wish they would let us run cameras on my helmet bc I have a 360 GoPro that would work perfectly. Unfortunately our cameras have to be mounted to the front feeding

They look slow as shit

I was expecting this to be like Pole Position. Alot faster
You coudlnt really go faster, not enough traction to accommodate more power. But it feels faster than it looks on this video. You def get a little more speed if you don’t slide as much too.
I know that objectively the traction sucks, but the way these karts promote neutral steer makes Andretti a lot more fun than Octane, IMO.
I’d agree
It’s been a long time since I’ve been to octane but It’s been even longer since I had as much fun at octane as I did at Andretti this last weekend. When it was F1 race factory I think it used to be a lot more fun but maybe that’s because I was younger. I think they should def make some of the younger kids race the slow karts first if they haven’t gone yet though. There was a kid that was going maybe a walking pace the entire race. Not only did it ruin the experience but it was kinda dangerous.
@@icebox829this is the main issue I have with going to Andretti. EVERYONE ignores the blue flags and they really don’t do anything about it. Then you get in trouble for bumping when you’re just trying to get past an erratic driver.
Hey Diego, i see the different tracks you go to, you're obviously a good driver, fast, and I wonder about how you cope with slower venues? I get it about catching and overtaking, being about driving skills, but i get frustrated when the karts aren't fast enough to need brakes. I come from 2cycle days, and find outdoor traks are the best. What i like about indoor tracks,is the quickness that things happen. My favorites are, Sykart Tukwila, PGP Park, Olympic Grand Prix at The Ridge, and Pats acres in Aurora, Or.
Appreciate the kind words! Majority of the indoor kart tracks, all use the same sodi or otl karts. So they’re essentially all the same max speeds. But ofcourse when it comes to electric, they tend to die and degrade a lot over time, so you’ll sometimes go to a facility where the kart may be fully charged but it lasts maybe 50% of their race distance. Other than stopping and asking for a kart swap, there’s really nothing you can do. I’m fortunate to do a lot of traveling and have been to a lot of different karting facilities. At the end of the day, I’m there for fun and sometimes just too lazy to ask for a kart swap, so I’ll just deal with it because I know I’m probably never going to go back to that facility. I like to check em out once and even if I go back to that city; I’ll take the time to explore other things that the city/town has to offer.
I know those feel like the best 7 minutes of your life
I’ve had better 7 minutes but this is close p2
i am considering going soon, what was the price for 1 race?
$28
What was your fast lap?
Ive. Been here 1 time almost wrecked bc of little kid😂
🔥🔥
That’s what’s up fool
Been trying to lay down a lap in the 80s for a few weeks and now i went from 92 -> 88 . Most favorite track other than the ridge!😁
What’s the ridge ?
@@DiegoAlvaradoRacing ridge motorsports park
Damn! You can hear the kart dying! That's worse than bad!
By mid way, I was full throttle every where 😂😂😂
@@DiegoAlvaradoRacing frustrating! Still fun though!
I went yesterday with my 10 year old. He did the Jr Racing Class. He was lapping in 92 sec and I lapped in 83 secs. I haven't been to any better track yet. It is so much fun.
Nice!
I have a question can you race with other teens or people without having to be in the tri-c karting club, im a 13 year old who wants to go jarring here and is wondering how it can be done
Kartin*
There’s no teen league. The senior class which is what this video is, has anyone 13 and up
what chassis are you running?
VLT
VLR*
please dont touch a go kart again
Can I touch you again
@@DiegoAlvaradoRacing yes please
I’m going there today it looks so fun
I went here during rolex 24. Wasn't too impressed how the karts are. Seems like they limit you in certain sections. And the boost doesn't work
They definitely limit in the fast sections prolly regular people don’t just so straight off full speed into a corner like the last downhill section before the start finish
Lucky
🙏🙏🙏
When do they run this series? I am looking into picking up a 212 ghost go kart build but just want to run against other 4-stroke karts.
As far as I know, you won’t be able to run any racing series in the harbor freight motor. Only 4 stroke leagues on SoCal are the Briggs and Stratton lo206 and the tillotson 212
@@DiegoAlvaradoRacing but as far as open track day it should be fine?
@@fixhead562 yea definitely
I go to this place like ever 3,4 months and best time was almost exactly 25 seconds. Even though I'm young I know how to control those 600lbs karts Here's a bit of advice, be loose and don't make the tires squeal
Thank you papa
@@DiegoAlvaradoRacing just in case you go back there be more organized with your entry to the hairpin and chicane, otherwise u got it Btw don't call me papa, I'm a minor
@@Die-0__novaliinia I appreciate the pro tips senior
@@DiegoAlvaradoRacing bro😐 I am not over 20
@@Die-0__novaliinia fr?
I was just there yesterday and posted a video too! Such a blast, and definitely the best karting track in the area. Maybe Ill see you there! My vid ended up being over 30 mins long so I made a highlight reel
promo sm 🌷
Do you race for position? Or Lap times?
Lap times at first then once I feel the electric kart die, I go for position because passing is fun
@@DiegoAlvaradoRacing Passing is very fun! We went to overdrive all the time! Before it was about position. Now it's about lap times because there were fights about position! I see it's kinda expensive for how many minutes you can 7 minute race
satisfying track
I do think it flowed real well tbh
Update: current track record is 36.299. They did some work on the transition at the bottom of the big downhill and there's no traction right now. If they can restore it to the conditions we had on 4/3 then I'm confident there's still time to be saved. If not, I think they'll need to reset the leaderboard as I don't believe 36.299 is attainable anymore.
Yea it’s rough. Wheel spin city and just no traction anywhere
@@DiegoAlvaradoRacing this place is honeslty a shitshow i did the adukt race too many shitty races not to mention cant block and no room to pass without being told to move over or wreck some body
Great lap time! 👍
What would u rate it 1 to 10
Solid 8. Wish the track was wider to promote passing
I was just there this weekend. Flagged went crazy with the guy ahead of me wouldn’t let me pass him. My best was 27.94…. It was ehh. It was fun though.
How much is it?
Thank you for saving me $500
I went here to like two days ago it was so fun I went to the Junior track and adlet track
Fire
Thanks
what time you got?
I need to check my score sheet
I was just here 1 hour ago lol
My record was 22 seconds
😱😱😱😱
@@DiegoAlvaradoRacing what was your nickname I think your record was like 17 seconds was it the all year record or was it like day record or all time record?
You were not the stig right? I went again today and got 20 seconds but you got 16 seconds
i went here today, and was placed into the junior track by accident. I'm not a an adult or teenager, I'm just a kid. and lets just say that people were mad that I was too god so they started crashing into me
🤓
they should have given u a shortbus to drive instead of a go kart
whats the name of that league?
Yeah babyLungz in the mix hood race Frs 😂
Epic!
Take off yo helmet bro 😩💦
How fast would you say these karts are?
Advertised as up to 35mph.
