- Video is from the CIK-FIA european championship in Superkart held at Le Mans 30th of September 2012.
I start in second position position and take the start. 4-5 drivers hit each other in the first corner and the safety car is deployed. I win the race with 5,5 seconds.
The Superkart I drive has a 250 ccm, 2 stroke, 2 cylinder, PVP engine.
Chassis is also made by PVP. The kart has aprox. 100 HP and does around 250 km/h as topspeed. - Sport
The safety car period ends at 10:00.

Mg thank u dude
neil78b No one wants to see lapping under SC.
wow, looks mega fun. driven a 70mph go kart and that was mental but this looks like insane fun
i could watch this all day.
i love this fucking sound ... i love 2t sound
Wow, 35.6, 35.7, 35.7, 35.9, 36.2. This guy is so good you can actually watch the tires go away simply by watching the stopwatch. He's a machine. Some of the smoothest driving and most consistantly on line I've ever seen in a kart, ever. Even when the thing slides on him and he misses the entry by a little bit, he still maintains momentum and saves the lap.
DUDE, YOU LED FROM START TO FINISH.
THIS ROUND NOBODY COULD TOUCH YOU..
2gs in the corners and hitting 140mph wow! Very smooth karting ? Congratulations!
It's so amazing, when Henrik really takes off past the line you get the sense of heavy G's pushing you.
This is mind blowing the speed it got.... Huge braking .... Absolutely brilliant dude
Love watching your videos. Questions - why not use paddle shifters on these types of karts? Why no seat belts?
Thanks for this! Wonderful to watch and certainly VERY impressive
Great driving and restart.Well deserved 3rd place in the championship.
Great race mate well deserved win there!
henrik..are you the driver here??This is bad ass..my brother in-laws brother was an enduro racer as well..i my self was a dirt racer..ill be getting into pavement again after watching this..makez my eyes pop out a my head!!!🇺🇸😎👊💪❤
surprised how much power you have from a 2 stroke 2 cylinder!! looks epic to race in
i want a shifter kart now
220kph=136mph on the straights, awesome!!!!! One more thing great video.
Amazing driving bro. Would love to race these karts one day. Right now im doing formula mclarens 1300. I hope i will race these beasts soon.
Good going Henrik looks like man and machine in harmony lap after lap great.
You are a mix between The Iceman & The Stig...., that's a compliment henrik ://)
this is friggin awesome
200 kmh fantastic
I guess the top speeds at Le Mans version short are not very high by superkarting standards (of course 220 kph in a small vehicle is still outrageous). The 2-cycle sound is fabulous! The kart setup is perfect - not much steering input required, some oversteer. I've enjoyed watching - NICE! Thank you!
Great Racing Bro.👍
God damn HotTrack ..... sweet driving and a well deserved win. Congrats m8 :-)
I reckon that to drive this kind of go-kart is as difficult as a GP2 car, even though the top speed is lower. Yet the level of dangerousness is higher, due to the lack of proper protections for drivers.
Voila du pilotage…
J'adore….
Moi aussi
Thanks a lot!
Gj for the win;
ps :you win this in my city !
How could FIA sanction this, yet they constantly trying to make F1 completely closed cab with speeds just 1,5 times higher.
exactly wt im thinking..
Don't remind them that there's some fun motoring on 4 wheels left to ruin.
Big difference in speed I guess?
It´s like rugby and American Football. Football without gear is suicide like F1 without protection is suicide as well. Rugby and Kart are simply not too dangerous. It also looks more dangerous on tape/video than it really is. Otherwise, there would be more safety things.
and thanks for the upload..
I saw a Le Mans Kart track from a helicopter shot during the 24 hours of Le Mans. Looks so damn fun!
gotta love telemtry gs speed coure awesome fantastic racing at its purest.
SKIP to 10:00 mark to skip over the pace car. / Yellow flags.
Thanks!
Is very enjoyable to watch you drive Henrik....do you mind answering a few question please?
1) How old are you?
2) How long have you been karting?
3) How frequently do you pratice and for how long each session?
4) Do you sim race at all? :P
I am 33 years
Driving different karting classes for 20+ years
only do races, aprox 6-7 a year
No sim racing. I only need 5 laps on a track then it's programmed in my harddrive (my head).
ok who is the driver,i see that karts still have the same chassis wind up in the turns , what chassis was it . i retired from superkarts in 1990, doesnt seem alot different except the gopro ,amazin vid but am surprised there was not 10 others stuck up your chuff, must have a killer motor
Drifting in the sunlit patches!!!! Nice bud, you got more balls than I do!
136 MPH is flying. 2 strokes make a lot of power.
Now this is proper karting!
Dan good job!
Nice driver!!
you drove well! looked as if you can handle a little more gear in 6th, topping out at n needed a little more in long straights! obvious you have great equipment! id love to drive that cart. may not turn your times but it would be fun.
nice driving
Damn this cart goes hella fast !!!
Nothing amazing about it. Excellent drive, but comparing Marquez to this bloke is insane. One is on a bike that will only allow a certain speed through corners and the other has 4 wheels is an inch of the ground and cuts through corners like a hot knife through butter. I used to race SuperKarts a while back and the corner speed is enough to push the air out of your lungs. I also race bikes (now). All that said, great drive mate.
it never occurred to me a clutch to be on a steering wheel. what a clever design! so right foot on gas, left foot on brake all the time? it can up/downshift without clutch right? what happens if you spin, do you have to pull a clutch to keep engine running? does it have a starter motor?
Crazy fun!
Hi, we dont use the kart track since it is for normal karts. We use the Bugatti circuit which the 24h le mans race also use parts of.
Were you using the PVP 252 motor? Any mods?
this is the standard 252 engine. no mods.
Yes PVP ships all over the world.. Australia, south africa, US, everywhere..
incredible how fast karts can go
hey Henrik what do you keep doing with your hand reaching back when your behind the pace car, are you blocking the radiator trying to keep water temps up? Just curious, Great video!
Very good
feels like i'm playing a video game!!!!
Congratulations. The water temperature is only 42 celsius degrees, is that correct? normaly is 80 celsius degrees.
The motor is a V or a twin (side by side) one crank or two? If you could get a 125 cc moto world championship the power could be about 130 HP
BR
what a beast!
@james bailey nope this is my own race video shot with gopro2 camera. graphics are added after the video has been shot.
So scary, imagine how fast the small tires spins
That looks intense. That thing jumps around like crazy and flies like a son-of-a-gun! Looks like you could even use a little bit longer 6th gear. I'm no expert but that thing tops out pretty quick and 5th and 6th seem a little too close to me. I don't know if you do gear changes to fit specific tracks or have set ratios. Im sure you are much wiser than I.. lol
Great lines and awesome machine!!
BTW guys, at 10:00 the safety car finally goes in to the pits.
What do you need to put the telemetry on the screen? A transponder on the Kart itself as well?
Hi Anthony,
Marshalls are showing a yellow flag and safetycar sign, so we slow down.
this is real entertainment!
How fast are these in comparison to formula 3000 or a formula ford? Did you ever get picked up for sports car racing after winning these things?
What data logger and acquition program did you use? it looks nice, do you mind letting me know? thanks a lot.
I need to drive this kart.where it's available.
Qualify time today in MotoGP same track: 1.33,187 - Marc Marquez
This Guy: 1.35,6
Amazing
Sa par très fort, pour le connaître en 2 roue, 350 cb. R 1968, franchement en pleine charge, jamais trop compris comment cela ne casse pas à des régimes entre 12 et 15000trm car se circuit est exigeant en terme de pilotage sur 4 et 2 roue et de mécanique 👌🤩🤩💕, et ses boîtes à air 👍et sur les vibreurs tu prends cher pour le tenir 🤩❤️
What did you do at 1:20 when you slowed down? you raised your arm too
congratulations you are a brave man
is it ok that i have a custom built from ground up to race? for example if i wield a go kart to shape and put a good to excellent racing engine on is it ok i race with it on the track?
No, you can do the frame but it has to fulfill some rules about dimensions, brakes etc.
The engine needs to be homologated and approved for Superkart. This you have to buy specific.
go look at www.pvpkart.com
ok then with the rules it is better to ask than just go in and race so thanks for it
How do you record your speed and the laps?
do you have a clutch with those or what?
Which software do you use for the overlay?
Trackvision.
which datalogging program do you use? looks great with cam!
AIM EVO 4 logger, Trackvision software, Gopro camera's
What telemetry/software do you use to get all that data?
210km/h with a Kart :) nice.
May i ask you how old are you and when did you start karting?
I think its around 2 G's but i heard that on lausitzring you can have 3,5 G's..
It would be cool if the safety car was also a kart, but red and with sirens :D
how many drivers did drive in this race?
I can't remember, somewhere between 35 and 50 drivers is the normal.
amazing but isnt marquez in the smaller bike category
Nice,
Do you record this video with SmartyCam?
Fandme godt kørt.. Dog er dine videoer hvor du overhaler langt federe at se, men de her er jo langt bedre for karrieren.. Tillykke med sejren.. Du må da næsten fører i mesterskabet sådan som du kører..?
When it race. I keep my kart moving between 150 to 140 because I have installed a really good steering kit. $200
does pvp ship in the US?
Why do you raise your arm at 3:26?
combien de cm3 ? et le son est magnifique =)
je pense 250cc ,
Why brazilians, germans, british, french and finnish are very good racing drivers?
US 23 Difficult to say. They have money, and are in countries where the sport is well-known. So they do it more.
Florent De Marsilly I disagree, I'm brazilian and it is VERY expensive to be a kart racer here...only rich people do it professionally, and the kart racing in general is not on TV, or radio at all
@reedjet yes you are Right. Trying to keep up the temp. BR Henrik
Have u ever been to mosport
It looks like your kart was better set up for this race than race 2
Ok thanks.
how do you get to do this races ? how did you do it ?
What do you mean? you buy a superkart, get a license on your country from the union, join a race!
3:25 what are you holding on to or adjusting?
I am blocking the radiator air intake with my hand to increase the water temperature.
No, he is in MotoGP this year. Rgds
Yes but i have never heard about a person that didn't know what Le Mans was... And since Neal asked "where is the track, i want to try it" i figured this guy something about racing (why would you else want to try a racetrack)
:-)
Most people fail to realize that a second hand used 5K dollar 250cc Shift Kart off Ebay is the closest thing to an F1 car you will ever have the opportunity to drive.... There are video's here on youtube of these things lapping 200K$ Ferrari's 5 seconds per lap.. They are ridiculously high performance road machines... A 250cc two stroke shift Kart will run sub 12 second quarter mile times.
rainmechanic there the lotus t125 exos.equal downforce to a 2017 f1 car.P/w ratio more or less equal,and weighs 580kg without driver.
Salut tous les accrocs du kart. Je viens de mettre sur pause à 20'15" car je suis monté grave dans un pur "TRIP DE MALADE" en étant à jeun de toutes substances pourtant mais avec plein écrans et du pur skatecore avec le 5.1 de la télé. Bref, cette vidéo est entrée n°1 de mes favoris (en boucles je vais me la faire, en boucle). C'est bon, j'y retourne mon coeur c'est calmé ;-)
