Figured i’d take the pressure off the wiley vet @tjkoyen by starting our discussion thread for USPKS Round 1 at Orlando! Here’s the links below to follow along. Same format for our show – Qualy, Heats, LCQ free, Main Events behind the monthly subscription paywall.
Correct. You’ll run a set of tires for saturday qualy, unbolt, put on a set for Sunday qualy, and then unbolt those and forget about them until the Sunday Pre Final.
Like Mike said, it’s really not that bad. Lots of seat time in this weekends, and most of all it gives you both so much confidence for when you go back home to run club and regional races. After standing on a grid of 40+, even a grid of half of that at a lower level of the pyramid seems like a cake walk.
@olivier.p bit of a tough run there in the pre. Keep your head down and stay calm, looks like you got roughed up and never really recovered. Lots of laps to get back up there, just be smart and don’t get caught up in shenanigans.
@Muskabeatz looks like he is starting to get his mojo back out there. Those old guys are tougher than you’d think!
@olivier.p you’re opening up the entry too much in the final corner and really inviting lunges there. Your exit is good but I think you need to turn in sooner but a little slower to make it less tempting for others to throw it down the inside.
Thanks for the shoutout @tjkoyen ! Slowly relearning how to drive a non-gearbox kart. Chassis is getting better, so hopefully I can make some moves in the final. Starting P4.
