thats a weight shift combined with power on. didnt touch the brakes. but if you have to its like pulling the parking brake since its only rear disc.

they get to about 30mph+ on the current track design.
neuro when were you there. you prob didnt have the balls to go fast enough. what where your laptimes. we had some kids there sat night doing 3/4 of a second faster than my best and about 3-4 seconds faster than the average lap time.
its over at Tampa Bay Grand Prix. on us 19 just north of 38th Ave. Right across from Kanes Furniture outlet.

id hit it.

the league nights are on tuesday nights. i really cant remember the price to be honest with you. im not sure if we would be able to have a designated drift night. i think you would have to prove that you can handle the kart first. trust me the karts are pretty powerful. it wont be like hey i set up a night and lets have a bunch of random people sliding the karts. these karts are about 350lbs a piece so they will carry their weight if you lose it.
id like to save up for the competition kart so i could have one of my own. put that bitch on speed 1 and have it sideways at 50mph. need to start saving my pennies cause itll cost about $8k

we might be able to get away with it if you guys have been there a few times (we can check how many times youve raced). i dont think we should call it a drift night per say, but maybe something a little more subtle. we'll se
also the best time to get sideways on these karts is during the day around 6-7pm. dont ask me how it works, but all of the records for the fast laps have been set at night. sme professional and semi professional racers have told me that its cause the air is densor.

these pro and semi-pro racers need to go back to school then, it's probably more likely because the motors aren't getting as hot, hence they are operating more efficiently

i dont know if they need to be going back to school. one of them raced a few 24 hr Le Mans for Renault in an old prototype class.
and yes they are electric
