HOW to IMPROVE your OPENING LAPS (HOW TO WARM UP TIRES)

Many drivers struggle warming up their tires, before a race. Because of this, you'll struggle in the opening laps of the race and fall back in positions. After years of driving, I have figured out ways to improve the performance in your tires. Watch this video to find out ways to warm up your tires and tips to improve your opening laps.

Load on the sidewall which then generates heat into the core of the tyre instead of being the next speedway champion sliding it around like no tomorrow the best way to explain it is go hard into the corner on cold tyres and turn hard full lock to the direction your going. Feel the fronts through the first few corners on the warm up lap. You’ll start to feel the grip come too you and then race the tyres from there if they’re not quite there then wait another two laps, once the tyres grip go like stick and you’ll see the lap times drop 😏

[@NorbergNation]

That’s exactly it

Hey Ryan, do you have a video on workouts to stay in shape for karting? Thank you

[@NorbergNation]

Possibly. Not sure I’m the best person to look to for that

P.S. Love watching those recent videos (in Florida) of you in those races. The SKUSA series I think it's called.

[@mattvideoslol4528]

amazing vid once again, can you post a new race review, its been a while and always great to watch💪🏻

[@NorbergNation]

Yeah! I really want to. Just need a good race to review.

[@mattvideoslol4528]

@@NorbergNation yeah man no worries, hopefully soon 👌🏻

[@luobingxing]

hey Ryan, love your vids. I really hope you could share the grip feel or tyre temperature feel during the whole race. Also, what kind of corner you trail brake very deep. thanks

[@NorbergNation]

Hopefully do something like that soon. I have a video on my channel dedicated to braking technique already.

[@osckaargoldfinch2312]

I'm pretty good at warming up but this helpful

[@NorbergNation]

That good! Always trying to improve!

I think caps and stickers could be cool for merch.

I like the sticker idea!

Great vid man! Would be awesome to see some rain techniques on a future video!

I might have a guest come on for that.

[@alessioalves8133]

Hey Ryan, I was just wondering if you have any tips on how to get faster like when you can break later in a corner or accelerate faster exiting the corner and when you should know to do that

[@NorbergNation]

I have a video on braking on my channel, and I talk about how to apply the throttle correctly in the video about 5 bad habits.

[@parkitplo3575]

As an old guy getting started I've been looking for ALL the advice I can get. Great educational vid Ryan and explained very well.
Small clarification, will I be carrying the trailing rear wheel off the tarmac during this exercise or just up to that point?

[@NorbergNation]

Probably not. Once the rear starts the slide it will stay down and won’t carry

[@parkitplo3575]

@@NorbergNation have you seen the Fernando Doc? When he drove for Renault and Flavio Briatore he would understeer on purpose into the braking zone rotate through the apex and hammer the loud pedal down the straight.

[@NorbergNation]

@@parkitplo3575 yes warming up the front tires are similar to that. Just don’t do that when they are warm hahah

[@lucasbeltran6070]

Ryan, I just started karting, and I got new tires put on for the first time. The car jumped a lot on the middle of the corners. Is it me just not driving it correctly, or is it something with the kart.

[@NorbergNation]

It’s probably the kart. Try a stiffer axle
